How many of
us truly are content with what we have?
How many times have we said, “If only I had more of this, or more of
that then I would be truly happy.” In
this short but powerful book, Harris III shows us just how Satan uses the
illusion of more to trick us and blind us and ultimately bind us. Starting with Adam and Eve who had everything
and being made in the image of God were already like God, began to believe the
great deceiver that what they had was not enough. Harris goes on to explain how Satan is a
master of tricks even in the heavenly realm getting a third of the angels to
fall with him. Using Bible stories and
scripture, he points out the tricks that were used to deceive and those who
withstood deception and why. And ultimately the provision of what Jesus has
done and what He became for us. At the
end of each chapter are questions for you to ask yourself. I think this would make a great personal
devotion or to use as a family devotion.
He gave me a lot to think on and in some ways a new way to see a Bible
truth. I think the cover sums up the
book nicely. The side of the apple we
are looking at looks so shiny and good, when in all reality it is nothing but
rotted and will make us very sick. The
author is an illusionist and has a DVD movie out that I plan on looking into. I received this book from The Book Club
Network, Inc. (TBCN) and the opinions are my own.
