Stronghold #1-Deception

In the first of our series on strongholds, we discuss deception. We all believe the lies of the enemy in certain areas of our lives. Today we combat those lies of deception with the truth of the Word of God.

Scriptures:

Genesis 3:1-7
2 Corinthians 11:3
John 8:44
Colossians 2:8
1 Corinthians 6:9
1 Corinthians 15:33
Galatians 6:7
James 1:16-18
Romans 1:18, 25
John 14:6
John 8:31-36
John 17:17
Ephesians 1:13
Ephesians 4:17-25
Ephesians 6:14
1 Peter 1:22
Prayer or Repentance

Father, in the Name of Jesus, I thank You that You are the Way, the Truth and the Life—the only Truth and the only Way. I thank You that You desire that I have truth in my inward parts and that I walk in the freedom that comes only from walking in the light of Your truth.

Father, today I take a stand against any deception trying to take root in my life. I bind deception and lies right now in the Name of Jesus. I curse every attempt of the devil to get me to buy a lie.

I refuse to be tempted to believe lies wrapped in truth and things that sound good or sound right, but do not line up with Your Word.

I declare that I walk in love toward all people, which is a defense against deception. I ask, Lord, that when people—even proclaiming Christians—exalt new ideas over the Word of God, that I will be quick to recognize it—that I will look to Your Word for guidance and confirmation, not to man.

I ask that every veil be removed from my eyes, that I will not be blinded by the opinions of others, by the thoughts and ideas of the world, but I will know the true voice of my Shepherd.

Lord, I ask that You bring conviction upon me for any areas where I have fallen into believing a lie. Show me these areas, and bring them to my mind. I ask that You cause me to humble myself, repent and get back on the road of truth.

Your Word says You set the captives free, and I declare today that I am free of deception. I praise You and thank You that You keep me safe in Your truth and that I will always have strength and desire to abide in You, no matter what persecution I may face.

In Your Name, I pray. Amen.
