Today’s Daily Bible Verse: Satan is In the Church Too

June 6, 2025

First Timothy 4:1–2
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;

VERSE CONTEXT

The apostle Paul, a seasoned preacher and church planter, is writing to his young spiritual son Timothy (Tih-muh-thee), who is now a pastor in the city of Ephesus (Eh-feh-sus)—a place known for idol worship, worldly pleasures, and deep spiritual confusion. Paul writes to encourage Timothy and to warn him—and the whole church—that false teachers and spiritual deceivers will absolutely come. And they won’t just be outside the church; they’ll come from within.

“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly…”

This means the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity, is making something very clear, loud and direct. This isn’t a whisper or a quiet impression. It’s not just Paul’s opinion. Paul is saying, “Pay attention, God is warning us directly!”

Word Picture for a child: Imagine a firefighter shouting through a bullhorn: “Fire is coming—get out now!” That’s what “speaks expressly” means. It’s not a suggestion; it’s an urgent warning to protect you.

“…that in the latter times…”

The phrase “latter times” refers to the time period between Jesus’ resurrection and His return, so we’re in those times right now. But Paul especially means the final chapters of this age, when truth will be harder to find, and deception will become stronger. Think of this as the last part of the race, when you’re the most tired, but the danger is the greatest. That’s the “latter times.”

“…some shall depart from the faith…”

This doesn’t just mean people leaving a church building. It means turning their hearts and beliefs away from the true gospel of Jesus Christ. A key verse that demands attention by those being told that once you are saved you are always saved. That is a lie straight from the lips of satan. They once claimed to believe the truth, but they were led away from it by something more attractive, more popular, or more comfortable, their fleshly desire for sin. This is like a kid walking off the path in a dark forest because he thinks he hears music or sees a shortcut, but he’s actually walking away from the light and toward danger. The path was good. It was not always smooth and straight. It went uphill and downhill. But it was the path that he knew would lead home. Then he allowed himself to be distracted with this noise. Then he started to think about that noise and became interested and curious in the noise. So he pursued the noise. Soon, the safety of the path could not keep him and his desire for sin cost him eternal life.

“…giving heed to seducing spirits…”

To “give heed” means to pay attention to or listen closely to something.
Seducing here means enticing, charming, or tricking someone by making something dangerous sound beautiful or exciting. These aren’t human spirits. These are evil spirits, working behind the scenes to whisper lies that sound like truth.

Word Picture: Think of a fisherman dropping shiny bait into the water. The fish thinks it’s food, but there’s a hook hidden inside. That’s what a seducing spirit does; it puts a hook in a lie and hides it in something that looks good. So when someone hears, “God wouldn’t really judge people,” or “The Bible doesn’t mean that anymore,” they’re listening to the same kind of evil seducing spirit that told Eve, “Ye shall not surely die.”

“…and doctrines of devils;”

Doctrines means teachings or beliefs. And these aren’t just bad opinions; Paul says they come from devils. The word “devils” in the Bible refers to demons, the fallen angels who followed Satan when he rebelled against God. So “doctrines of devils” are demonic teachings; things demons want people to believe so that they won’t follow God’s truth. These teachings might sound loving, inclusive, or even spiritual, but they deny what God has said. They might include: “All religions lead to the same God” or “Love is love, God just wants you to be happy” or “God won’t punish anyone, it’s all grace.” These are not just wrong, they are demon-inspired lies meant to lead people to eternal death.

Word Picture: It’s like drinking from a beautiful cup filled with poison. Just because it’s shiny doesn’t mean it’s safe.

“Speaking lies in hypocrisy…”

The false teachers Paul is warning about are not just mistaken, they’re two-faced. They preach things they know aren’t true, or that they don’t even follow themselves. This is hypocrisy, pretending to be something you’re not. Example: A man might tell others to be holy, but he’s secretly living in sin. He lies, smiles, and sounds spiritual, but God sees his heart.

“…having their conscience seared with a hot iron.”

This is a very powerful image. The conscience is the part of you that knows right from wrong. But Paul says these people’s consciences are seared, like when you burn skin so badly it becomes numb, hard, and scarred.

Word Picture: Imagine touching a hot stove and getting burned. If you kept burning your hand again and again, it would eventually lose all feeling. That’s what happens to the heart when people keep rejecting God’s truth.
They can’t feel guilt anymore. They stop caring. They defend evil and mock good.

This verse is not just a warning about other people, it’s a warning to us, too. If we ever start thinking, “Maybe that part of the Bible doesn’t apply anymore…” or “Maybe God wouldn’t actually punish someone for that…”, we need to check our hearts immediately, because we might be listening to a seducing spirit.

BROADER CONTEXT

The Book of First Timothy is one of Paul’s pastoral epistles, written around A.D. 62–64 while Paul was in Macedonia. He wrote it to Timothy, a young pastor left in charge of the church at Ephesus (Eh-feh-sus). Ephesus was a city steeped in idol worship, particularly of the goddess Diana (or Artemis), a place overflowing with false religion, sexual immorality, and spiritual confusion. Paul knew that this church, planted in a dark culture, would face attacks from within and without.

In First Timothy chapter 4, Paul turns Timothy’s attention to spiritual deception, especially how false teachings will increase as the church age continues. He warns that many people, even those who once claimed to be part of the faith, will fall away because they listen to lies. These lies will sound spiritual and morally kind, but they will deny God’s truth, twist Scripture, and call evil “good.”

Paul doesn’t just warn Timothy; he charges him to stand firm, teach the truth boldly, and train others to stay grounded in sound doctrine. He reminds him to reject profane and old wives’ fables (1 Timothy 4:7) and to be an example in word, conduct, love, spirit, faith, and purity (verse 12). The whole chapter is about guarding the truth, protecting the sheep, and recognizing deception, especially when it disguises itself as righteousness.

Common False Teachings Today (Doctrines of Devils)

Paul says these false doctrines are not just mistakes, they are from devils. The following teachings are modern examples of what Paul warned about:

  1. Women as Pastors or Preachers in Authority over Men
    • First Timothy 2:12 says: “But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.”
    • Yet today, many churches openly defy this. That’s not progressive, that’s rebellion.
    • Paul warned that such teachings are departures from the faith.
  2. Universalism (Everyone Will Be Saved)
    • This teaching claims a loving God wouldn’t send anyone to hell. But Jesus said in Matthew 7:13–14 that “broad is the way that leadeth to destruction” and many are on it.
    • To deny hell is to call Jesus a liar, and that’s demonic.
  3. Prosperity Gospel (Health and Wealth)
    • This lie teaches that if you have enough faith, God will make you rich and healthy. But Second Timothy 3:12 says: “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.”
    • The apostles were poor and persecuted, not flying in jets.
  4. Affirming Sinful Lifestyles
    • Churches now celebrate or excuse homosexuality, fornication, adultery, transgenderism, and more, claiming “God is love.”
    • But Romans 1:32 says: “Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”
  5. Faith Deconstruction and Redefining Scripture
    • “Did God really say that?” is the same satanic question the serpent asked Eve. Many now say the Bible is culturally outdated, or should evolve with society.
    • This undermines the authority of Scripture and teaches rebellion as virtue.
  6. Contemplative Mysticism and New Age Practices in Churches
    • Yoga, breath prayer, “Christian” tarot cards, and other pagan rituals are sneaking into worship. Paul warned of seducing spirits, and that’s exactly what these practices involve.
  7. Worship of Self (You Are Enough, Follow Your Heart)
    • These messages sound uplifting but are rooted in pride. Jeremiah 17:9 says: “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?”
    • Any gospel that focuses on self instead of Christ is false.

Present Day False Teachers and Movements

These names and movements often blend truth with error, but still qualify as dangerous according to Paul’s warning:

  • Joyce Meyer, Beth Moore, Paula White – women who teach men with pastoral authority, directly violating 1 Timothy 2:12.
  • Joel Osteen, T.D. Jakes – prosperity gospel, refusal to preach on sin, hell, or repentance.
  • Rob Bell – teaches there is no hell; known for “Love Wins” and universalism.
  • Carl Lentz (former Hillsong NYC) – moral compromise, celebrity worship, and lukewarm doctrine.
  • The ELCA and PCUSA – mainline denominations affirming LGBT clergy and rejecting biblical authority.

Even entire movements like Progressive Christianity are rooted in doctrines of devils. They soften the gospel, downplay sin, redefine grace, and teach that Scripture is more symbolic than true. This is the seduction Paul warned about. The Holy Spirit’s warning in 1 Timothy 4:1–2 is not just about obvious heretics, it’s about anyone who causes us to doubt or disobey the Word of God. Whether it’s Eve in the garden or a preacher in a pulpit, the method is the same: “Did God really say…?” And today, Satan is still asking that question, but he’s asking it in Christian bookstores, on social media, and even in churches.

APPLICATION

Appreciating God’s Greatness

In First Timothy 4:1–2, we see that God does not leave His people in the dark. He warns us, not vaguely or softly, but expressly, directly, and with urgency. The Holy Spirit is not quiet in these verses. He’s shouting the alarm like a watchman on a city wall. This tells us something beautiful and terrifying: God sees the storm of deception coming long before it arrives. And because He loves us, He calls it out before we’re caught in it.

He doesn’t just warn us about evil; He describes how it will sound, how it will spread, and how it will be disguised. That kind of detailed love is the mark of a faithful Shepherd. Our God is great not only in power, but in wisdom, protection, and truth. We serve a God who doesn’t just give us comfort, He gives us clarity.

For the Believer

Christian, this verse is for us. It’s not just about “those bad people out there.” Paul says “some shall depart from the faith.” That means some who claimed to walk with Christ will fall into the trap of false teaching because they listened too long, questioned too much, and refused to hold fast to truth.

This passage calls us to three things:

  1. Guard your ears. What are you listening to? Podcasts, preachers, influencers, are they speaking truth, or are they mixing truth with error? Remember: seducing spirits don’t sound dangerous. They sound inspiring.
  2. Examine your heart. Do you feel uneasy when the Bible says something hard? When Scripture speaks of judgment, holiness, or submission, do you feel tempted to soften it, explain it away, or ignore it? That discomfort may be the first whisper of the same serpent who asked, “Yea, hath God said?”
  3. Stand firm in the Word. We must be like the Bereans (Acts 17:11) who searched the Scriptures daily to see whether what they were told was true. You are not called to be “open-minded”; you are called to be biblically grounded.

Call to Action

  • Turn off the voices that contradict God’s Word, even if they call themselves Christian.
  • Test every teaching against the full counsel of Scripture.
  • Teach your children and others to recognize truth from lies. Help them understand that not all “Christian” messages are of Christ.
  • Warn others in love. If you see someone being led astray, speak up. The most loving thing you can do is point them back to truth, even if it costs you popularity or comfort.

For the Unbeliever

If you’re not a follower of Christ, this passage is not just a warning, it’s a mirror. It shows what the enemy of your soul is doing behind the scenes. Every time you hear, “God is too loving to punish sin,” or “The Bible is outdated,” or “Everyone goes to heaven,” you are being lied to by devils, according to Scripture.

Satan doesn’t need you to become a witch or a criminal. He just needs you to believe a false version of Christianity that keeps you feeling spiritual while you reject the truth. His goal is not to terrify you, it’s to soothe you to sleep… right into Hell.

But the same God who speaks this warning also speaks an invitation: Come to Jesus. Now. Before your conscience is seared, before the lies feel like truth. Confess that you are a sinner. Believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins and rose from the grave. And trust Him, not your heart, not your favorite preacher, not your feelings.

John 14:6 – Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

He is the Truth, and He is calling you out of deception and into everlasting life.

FINAL ENCOURAGEMENT

First Timothy 4:1–2 is more than a warning, it’s a wake-up call. We are living in the very days Paul described. False teachers are multiplying. Doctrines of devils are paraded as truth. Seducing spirits are whispering in churches, classrooms, TV shows, podcasts, and pulpits. Feminism disguises itself as empowerment and strength, and allures women with beautiful independence which seems great to the flesh but is totally anti-scripture. And worst of all, many hearts have become so numb to conviction that they can no longer feel the sting of sin.

But you, brother, sister—you are not called to slumber. You are called to discernment, to faithfulness, to unwavering obedience. You are called to test the spirits, love the truth, and warn others with the courage of Christ. If the Word of God feels harsh, it’s because the lies of the world have dulled your ears. If the truth of Scripture feels offensive, ask yourself, “who taught you to feel that way?” If your conscience is still tender, praise God. But if it’s been seared, plead with the Lord to renew your mind and restore your fear of Him. Don’t be deceived. Don’t be led astray. Stay awake. Stay armored. Stay faithful.

PRAYER

Heavenly Father,
Thank You for speaking so clearly through Your Word. Thank You for warning us, not to shame us, but to save us. Lord, open our ears to Your voice and close them to the lies of the enemy. Give us hearts that love truth, even when it is hard, and the courage to reject what is false, even when it is popular. We pray for those who have wandered into deception. Open their eyes. Soften their hearts. Bring them back to the faith. Protect our families, our children, and our churches from doctrines of devils. Raise up bold preachers who will not bend, and give us humble hearts that will obey. Keep us alert. Keep us holy. Keep us walking in the truth of Jesus Christ, the only Way, the only Truth, and the only Life.
In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.

TODAY’S DAILY BIBLE VERSE

April 9, 2025

Isaiah chapter 5 verse 20:
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

VERSE CONTEXT

Isaiah chapter 5 verse 20 says: “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” The word “woe” is a prophetic cry of sorrow, warning, or denunciation. It signals divine judgment. This isn’t just an emotional reaction—it’s a formal declaration from God through the prophet Isaiah (Eye-zay-uh) that serious consequences are coming. In Hebrew, this woe is used like a funeral lament—it carries the tone of a death sentence being pronounced over a morally bankrupt people.

Isaiah, ministering in Judah during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, is speaking to a nation that had hardened itself against the truth. Chapter 5 opens with what is often called “The Song of the Vineyard,” a parable where God is portrayed as a vineyard owner who did everything necessary to produce good fruit, but instead His vineyard (representing Israel) brought forth “wild grapes.” These wild grapes symbolize the unrighteousness and injustice springing from the hearts of the people, despite God’s provision, protection, and patience.

When we reach verse 20, Isaiah is several woes into a legal indictment, each one highlighting a particular category of sin. This verse targets those who “call evil good, and good evil.” The word “evil” here refers to moral wickedness—actions, attitudes, and systems that stand in direct opposition to the holiness of God. It means that which is corrupt, destructive, and contrary to God’s moral law. To “call evil good” is not merely to tolerate sin but to celebrate it, defend it, and redefine it as righteous. The word “good” here means upright, morally excellent, and aligned with God’s standards. So this phrase exposes the deliberate moral inversion taking place—what should be condemned is being praised, and what should be honored is being scorned.

The next pair of contrasts says, “that put darkness for light, and light for darkness.” “Darkness” in Scripture is frequently a metaphor for sin, deception, and separation from God. It represents spiritual blindness, confusion, and ignorance of truth. To “put darkness for light” is to make lies appear as truth, or to treat rebellion as enlightenment. Conversely, “light” is a symbol for God’s truth, righteousness, and His very presence. Light exposes sin and guides the way to holiness. When people exchange these—choosing lies over truth, sin over righteousness—they are spiritually disoriented and morally upside-down. This is not confusion born of ignorance, but rebellion born of pride.

The final contrast in the verse reads: “that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter.” “Bitter” in this setting stands for the painful, destructive consequences of sin. It describes that which should bring sorrow or revulsion to the soul. Meanwhile, “sweet” speaks of that which is pleasant, desirable, and right in the eyes of God. This is the tragic point: the people of Judah had reached the stage where their tastes were so corrupted that what should have turned their stomach now delighted them—and what should have satisfied them now repulsed them. The conscience, having been dulled and reshaped by sin, was no longer a reliable guide.

This verse doesn’t describe accidental stumbling or simple confusion—it describes a willful, stubborn refusal to submit to God’s standard. Commentator Matthew Henry (1662–1714, Presbyterian) saw this woe as evidence of a people not only sinning, but actively rewriting the moral code. They glorify sin and mock righteousness. John Calvin (1509–1564, Reformed) likewise warned that this is the highest degree of corruption, when man attempts to overrule God’s own definitions of right and wrong, declaring themselves the final authority.

This verse remains powerfully relevant today. It speaks directly to cultures that celebrate immorality, redefine family, defend perversion, silence truth, and elevate feelings over facts. It warns that when a society no longer blushes at sin, but applauds it, it is standing at the edge of divine judgment.

BROADER CONTEXT

Isaiah chapter 5 is structured as both a parable and a courtroom indictment. The first seven verses present what scholars often call “The Song of the Vineyard,” where God is likened to a vineyard owner who carefully cultivated His vineyard—Israel—but was rewarded not with the sweet fruit of righteousness, but with wild grapes, a metaphor for injustice, idolatry, and moral decay. The vineyard parable sets the stage for the remaining verses of the chapter, where God, through Isaiah (Eye-zay-uh), issues six distinct “woes,” each announcing divine judgment for a particular category of sin. Isaiah chapter 5 verse 20 is the fourth of these woes.

This particular woe is surrounded by others that speak to greed, drunkenness, pride, corruption, and injustice, all of which had infected the nation of Judah at every level. The people had not merely stumbled into sin—they had institutionalized it. Leaders were corrupt, priests were compromising, and the common people had lost discernment. What makes verse 20 particularly dangerous is that it shows sin being reframed as virtue. While the earlier woes address behavior, this one attacks ideology—it targets the redefinition of morality itself. It is not just sinning—it is calling sin “good.” It is not just ignoring righteousness—it is mocking it as “evil.” This tells us Judah had reached a critical point where moral confusion had become national policy. The culture had normalized rebellion.

The book of Isaiah as a whole was written during a time of political instability and spiritual rebellion. The northern kingdom of Israel was on the verge of being conquered by Assyria, and the southern kingdom of Judah, to whom Isaiah preached, was following closely in its wicked footsteps. God raised up Isaiah to confront both the leadership and the people with uncomfortable truth: judgment was coming, not merely because of foreign powers, but because of their own sin. And yet, Isaiah’s message always carried a future hope—the promise of restoration through a remnant and the coming of a Messiah.

Isaiah chapter 5 sits at a turning point in the prophet’s writings. Chapters 1 through 5 form an introduction to the themes of the entire book: judgment, justice, repentance, and restoration. Chapter 6 will mark Isaiah’s dramatic vision of God’s holiness and his own calling as a prophet. So when we read chapter 5, especially verse 20, we are hearing the final warning before Isaiah’s personal commission. This gives verse 20 a climactic urgency—it marks the point where God says, in effect, “This is the condition of the nation, and this is why judgment is just.” The nation had not only disobeyed—they had overturned God’s moral order.

Theologically, Isaiah chapter 5 verse 20 connects to the larger biblical theme that truth is not subjective. From Genesis to Revelation, God makes clear that He alone defines good and evil. In Proverbs chapter 17 verse 15 it says: “He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.” This is exactly what Isaiah is addressing—when society flips righteousness and wickedness on their heads, it becomes an abomination. In Romans chapter 1 verse 25, Paul echoes this same theme: “Who changed the truth of God into a lie and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator…”—again pointing to the willful exchange of divine truth for manmade falsehoods.

Isaiah’s warning applies not only to ancient Judah, but to every generation tempted to redefine morality apart from God. It shows the progression of sin: first we tolerate it, then we celebrate it, then we punish those who oppose it. By the time verse 20 is fulfilled in a culture, that society is no longer drifting from God—it is shaking its fist at Him.

APPLICATION

When Isaiah cried “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil,” he wasn’t just pointing out corruption—he was revealing something profound about the character of God. This verse confronts us with the unchanging nature of divine truth. God is not like man. He does not shift with culture, emotion, or opinion. His standards of good and evil are rooted in His own holy nature. That means He alone defines morality, not society, not governments, and not religious leaders who compromise under pressure. This should stir awe in us. It tells us that truth isn’t floating in opinion—it’s anchored in the eternal person of God Himself. He is both righteous and just, and He hates moral confusion not only because it distorts society, but because it misrepresents Him.

This verse also reveals the depth of God’s holiness. By highlighting the inversion—calling darkness light and bitter sweet—it shows how God sees sin: not just as rebellion, but as a direct contradiction to everything He is. Just as light cannot coexist with darkness, God’s truth cannot tolerate deception. And when people attempt to blur that line, it is not just morally wrong—it is spiritually dangerous. This kind of twisting of truth invites divine judgment, not because God is cruel, but because He is holy and just. So appreciating God’s greatness means recognizing that His justice is an extension of His love. He loves His creation too much to let lies go unchallenged.

For the believer, this verse functions as both a warning and a calling. We are not just to avoid calling evil good—we are to actively stand for what God calls good, even when the world calls it evil. In today’s culture, there is tremendous pressure to redefine sin as acceptance, to replace righteousness with tolerance, and to paint holiness as hatred. Isaiah’s warning speaks directly to that climate. Believers are called to be salt and light—not neutral, not quiet, and not afraid. Light, by its very nature, exposes darkness. If our witness is not exposing anything, it may be because it’s not shining.

The call to action for believers is simple but bold: stand unflinchingly on God’s definitions. Don’t shrink from calling sin what it is. Don’t bend to a world that is trying to rewrite moral reality. Paul said in Ephesians chapter 5 verse 11: “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” That word “reprove” doesn’t just mean to avoid or ignore—it means to confront, expose, and correct. The believer’s job isn’t to make truth more palatable, but to proclaim it lovingly and clearly. And we must do so knowing that calling good “good” in a world that celebrates evil will cost us. But it’s a cost that honors Christ.

For the unbeliever, this verse serves as both a mirror and a warning. It shows what sin does to the heart and mind. It desensitizes. It distorts. It makes evil look appealing and righteousness look oppressive. If someone finds themselves defending what God calls wicked, or mocking what God calls holy, they are not just misguided—they are in grave danger. Isaiah’s woe is not poetic—it is prophetic. It is God’s way of saying, “This path ends in destruction.”

But even here, there is hope. The fact that God sent Isaiah to speak this warning shows that God still offers repentance before judgment. If you are someone who has believed the world’s lies, if you’ve exchanged light for darkness and called it enlightenment, or bitterness for sweetness and called it freedom, God is not finished with you. Jesus said in John chapter 8 verse 12: “I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.” That invitation is still open. You can leave the darkness of confusion and step into the clarity of God’s truth—but it begins with repentance.

Final Encouragement

Isaiah chapter 5 verse 20 is not just an ancient cry of judgment—it is a living warning for our day, and a clear dividing line between the truth of God and the lies of this world. “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil” is a verse that rings louder the more society drifts from God’s Word. But for the believer, it is also a verse of clarity and courage. We are not confused. We know what is good because God has told us. We know what is evil because God has defined it. And we know our task—to be people of truth, even when the truth costs us something.

God has not left His people in the dark. He has given us light. Not just abstract moral categories, but the light of Christ Himself. He is our compass in a crooked world. He is our standard when the world has none. And He is our strength when we are called to stand alone. This verse reminds us that the truth is not up for debate, and that standing with God is the only way to avoid standing in judgment.

Prayer

Heavenly Father,

You are holy, righteous, and true. Thank You for being a God who never changes, who always calls good “good” and evil “evil.” We live in a world that blurs every line You have drawn, but we ask You to give us eyes to see clearly, hearts that love truth, and the courage to stand for what is right. Help us not to fear the world’s approval or fall for the enemy’s confusion. Let us speak with grace but also with boldness, knowing that Your Word is life and light.

For those who have wandered into confusion, who no longer know the difference between light and darkness—draw them back. Break through the lies they’ve believed and shine the light of Christ into their hearts. Let repentance rise. Let truth be loved again. Let Your people be unashamed of what is right. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
