Something happened to me last week that made me finally conclude that Illusion is strong

Gosh! It’s so strong

Only God can save a believer from Satan’s illusion.

No wonder satan is called the father of lies. He paints a beautiful illusion/false life you’d want to live in.

It’s so fascinating how movies, series and novels provide escape from reality for us, and we want to live inside their world. We even create an alternate reality for ourselves. That’s what an illusion does. It’s a make believe. It’s not real, but the ‘actors’ make it real.

And at that moment I realised I wanted the show to be real. But it wasn’t

Now imagine this world to be the same. We want this world to be so real. But like vapour, man is here today and gone tomorrow.

So tell me how that’s real?

Tell me why we keep striving to make it real?

Reminds me of Cipher in the Matrix.

He knew the Matrix wasn’t real, but he wanted to go back to living inside the matrix.

He wanted to live in His ‘make-believe’ world.

He preferred living there than facing reality of what was. And he betrayed others for his ‘belly’

He was tired of living the real life.

He was weary trying to believe there was some light at the end of the tunnel.
And that’s the scary part guys. Man’s soul can get tired of running the race and just go back.

But you know what happened to Cipher? He died a shameful death.

Good will always prevail over evil

Reality will always prevail over the illusion.

Truth will always have the final say.

No matter how long it takes.

But it’s now left to us to choose where we will stand and where our allegiance lies.

May God strengthen us. Amen
