The church today is in a spiritual disposition that is adverse to the will of God, because many in the church are operating in delusion. According to the scriptures, the word delusion means to believe a lie to be the truth (I Thessalonians 2:11). We need to think about this. When you do not agree with God, you will accept a lie as your god.
For years we have heard that if you tell a lie long enough you will then start to believe it as the truth. This is delusion. A continual rejection of truth will lead to strong delusion. The thing that makes it so detrimental and scary is that one can start out believing the truth, but if that truth opposes the desires of flesh, for whatever reasons, that truth must be dealt with. The mind is capable and will deal with any truth that opposes the desires of the flesh.
A delusion in which a created image is accepted as fact and not fiction. This image or delusion is created in the mind or in the imagination. Have you ever imagined something that was very nice that you would like to do? The difference in that and what we are talking about here is that in a normal mind when you create something inside of your imagination, you know that it is in the imagination. It may be something that you are hoping for, but you know that it is not real.
In a delusional state you actually believe that thing is real despite all the evidence proving it is not real. Many are in a state of delusion, they would rather believe that sin in the saint life will still somehow enter Heaven.
The church must open its eyes and look in the reality of the Word because as loving as our God is He is also a God of wrath and His wrath falls on all ungodliness.
Are you living in your imagination or in reality?
You can walk in truth.
Be Blessed,
Pastor Jackie
