Today, God has saved me from evil and deceit. The Almighty God has guided me and did not let me fall into the traps set by Satan through man. I praise God for His faithfulness and His goodness. Satan is the deceiver, and he uses the hardships of life to make people do evil. Satan desires for a person's intelligence and abilities to be used for evil, he wants their ways to be filled with deceit. His job is to deceive people, and his way is to make them crafty against their neighbors. He desires quick and easy ways to gain wealth and prosperity. Satan used a person filled with greed for money. He urged this person to use their intelligence for evil deeds. This person used their own wisdom for wrongdoings because they were deceived by Satan. But today, God has shown that His wisdom far surpasses that of man, and he cannot deceive God. Even the cleverest deceivers fail in their evil plans because God knows the hearts and minds of men, and He alone is powerful. He is the one who blesses, and He is the one who judges the wicked. God guides His children who fear Him, and He will never let them be harmed by evil and deceptive people.

As it is written in Job 5:12-16

"He frustrates the devices of the crafty, So that their hands cannot carry out their plans. He catches the wise in their own craftiness, And the counsel of the cunning comes quickly upon them. They meet with darkness in the daytime, And grope at noontime as in the night. But He saves the needy from the sword, From the mouth of the mighty, And from their hand. So the poor have hope, And injustice shuts her mouth."

The Lord is good, and He has promised His children that no evil plan will prosper in the lives of those who have faith in Him.

As stated in Romans 8:28-31

"And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified. What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?"

God also says in Zechariah 8:17

"Let none of you think evil in your heart against your neighbor; And do not love a false oath. For all these are things that I hate,’ says the Lord."

Let us not do evil to our neighbors, for it displeases God. He does not bless evil deeds. Wicked wealth is in vain it will not bring good but will lead to destruction in the end.

As written in Proverbs 10:2-4

"Treasures of wickedness profit nothing, But righteousness delivers from death. The Lord will not allow the righteous soul to famish, But He casts away the desire of the wicked. He who has a slack hand becomes poor, But the hand of the diligent makes rich."

Even if you have done wrong in the sight of God and to your neighbor, it is never too late to change your ways. God is good, merciful, and forgiving. If you come to Him and ask for forgiveness, He will forgive you, for He is a gracious and loving God.

As the Lord Almighty says in 1 John 1:9

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

As written in Psalm 103:8-12

"The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in mercy. He will not always strive with us, nor will He keep His anger forever. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor punished us according to our iniquities. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward those who fear Him; as far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us."

And in Isaiah 1:18

"Come now, and let us reason together,” says the Lord, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be as wool."

Turn away from your wrongdoings, seek forgiveness from God, and also from those you have wronged. God loves you, and He desires to correct your ways. He loves you so much, and He is ready to forgive you. Come to Him and ask for His forgiveness. God is always there to help us, nor does He want us to worry about our needs**.**
