REVIEW: Decievers

Decievers is a book that will capture your attention right away. Have you ever stopped to think about the subtle tactics of the enemy? Ever considered the ways that the Enemy has infiltrated the world we live in – maybe even in our lives? The introduction of the book states “We believe that stage-setting for Christ’s Olivet prophecy about deceivers and deception is on the front burner of life today. It is alto¬gether fitting, therefore, to assess this particular end-times signal in ascer¬taining where we might stand on God’s prophetic timeline.” The pages following this compelling introduction are filled with the subtle ways that Satan is showing up in every arena of life – tiny deceptions, lies that are mixed with divine truths, slights of hands that make us question the foundations of faith we once so staunchly believed in. The enemy is a master of deception, a master of twisting the truth. He is the ultimate one to make us question the goodness of God and in that question causing us to accept less than what God has in store for us. This book confirmed the things I had thought. It also made me keenly aware of my responsibility as a parent to invest in my children, to “train them up in the way they should go” (Proverbs 22:6). Parenthood is not a task that can be pawned off on the church leaders, or the school. It is a task that we must boldly take up as Christian parents, equipping our children for the spiritual battles they will face in their life time. This book, in short, is one that must be read. I think it joins other books like Indoctrination and Raising Godly Children in an Ungodly World (also published by MasterBooks). It is time that the scales come off that Christians stand boldly against the Enemy. It is time that we become uncomfortable in this world that is not our home, that our lives become like the salt of the earth and the light in the darkness. We must not allow the deception of the enemy to shadow the hallowed walls of our church or thwart the power of our testimonies. We must take a stand. We must sound the call “awake o, Sleeper!”. We must not allow the deception of the enemy into our lives for one second longer. Open this book – be prepared for God to move, and with His movement be prepared to get uncomfortable, to have your eyes opened. But most of all be prepared to see the Truth of the enemy and learn to stand firm in the faith! Good Reading! http://www.masterbooks.com
