Not Invited to the Party
When Sweet to the Soul Ministries asked me to be a contributing writer for Let Your Light Shine devotional, I did a crazy jig was totally calm. This devotional is available on Amazon and will be distributed to women in prisons – which is super cool!
I chose to write about 2 Corinthians 11:14 for them, because wow.
And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. (2 Corinthians 11:14)
This verse is terrifying, amiright?
Today, Sweet to the Soul posted my contribution to the devotional on their blog. It is based on the idea of how Paul tells us Satan “masquerades” himself. (NIV)
It’s a masquerade … a party.
Satan loves deceiving us, and he enjoys himself when we fall for the lies. Isn’t it funny (and appropriate) how the modern-day movies with a masquerade scene, most of the time, something awful
happens? Murder, theft, or some other shade of darkness is hidden behind the masks. The darker the mask or costume, the darker the character.
But there’s Good News. Satan didn’t, isn’t and can’t win.
I think that’s worth celebrating, right?
But Satan’s not invited to this party.
