Sermons About Deceive
Don't Be Deceived
Don't Be Deceived James 1:12-18 (New International Version) 12Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him. 13When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. 15Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. 16Don't be deceived, my dear brothers. 17Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. 18He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of all he created.

Saints leading saints as saints
The people of Corinth were forgetting that they were saints by calling because of the cross of Jesus and the power of the Spirit opening their eyes to the foolish preaching of the cross. This was evident in the fact that they were dividing over men. We tend to do this too. If we are elders in the church, we deceive ourselves with our arrogance to think we are wiser than we are. We are sometimes deceived into boasting in men, especially when those men boast in themselves. But you are already rich in Jesus, by the cross and Spirit, it would be foolish to settle for boasting in man.

Let's face it, sometimes we would rather do things our way than enter into the process of realigning our desires to match God’s desires. In this sermon, we will look at the lives of four people who prefer to trust their senses, their appetites, their instincts, and their advisors to trusting God. Let's take a peek into their lives so that we may learn about our own.

Seeing Beyond the Moment
When we face important decisions, we often get fixated on momentary satisfaction or pleasure and miss out on God's best. Looking at the lives of Jacob and Esau, we see that our way often seems best at the time but rarely brings lasting satisfaction. If we are going to thrive in our spiritual journey, we must start by acknowledging that God’s way is better than our way.
