From the moment we are born into this world we are being marketed to. We never have a chance to actually see reality or understand it in order to make our own decisions, because we only see the illusion of what others want us to see, think, feel, and choose. These illusions use fear to create and feed habits, addictions, spending, understanding, and so much more. Industries profit from these illusions and prey on our fears to keep us coming back for more, thinking we're achieving one thing but actually accomplishing the opposite.
If this is true in industries like food, alcohol, cosmetics, health, wellness, and entertainment, it's probably true in religion too. In fact, I know it to be true in our faith, and the enemy is the one to blame.
In this episode, you'll learn how to spot an illusion (lie) from the enemy and see the opposite reality of God's truth. You'll learn a simple action step straight from the Bible to be able to follow the reality of God's truth instead of the illusions of the enemy.
Here's the passage:
' For although we live in the flesh, we do not wage war according to the flesh, since the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but are powerful through God for the demolition of strongholds. We demolish arguments and every proud thing that is raised up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to obey Christ. And we are ready to punish any disobedience, once your obedience is complete. '
2 Corinthians 10:3-6
