But remember that the temptations that come into your life are no different from what others experience…

I Corinthians 10:13a NLT

There’s nothing you’re going through; no trial, no temptation, no crisis, no challenge, no difficult season that befalls you that many have not gone through and even come through. You’re not the first to go through it, definitely aren’t the only one going through it right now and you can be sure that many others will still go through it.

You’re not alone. The first thing the devil wants you to believe is you’re the worst person in the world right now. That you’re the most unlucky and unfortunately person in the world ever. If the devil can successfully sell that lie to you and make you believe it, then he can control you, control your mind, your thoughts and your actions.

Oftentimes it is not what we’re going through that leads to depression and suicide but what we believe about what we’re going through. If you believe the lies of the devil then he can control your life and destiny.
