New Age believes we are all Gods• Satan deceived Eve with this lie in the Garden

God placed you at this very moment in history, because there’s something only you can doHe chose when and where you should live:

“And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, thought He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, ‘For we are also His offspring”’ (Acts 17:26 –28).

Could God be using you today to change the life of someone around you?

He sends angels to wage war around you every day. Others He sends to comfort and strengthen you; to nudge you toward your destiny.

Do not give up, but continue to carry the presence of God—the light in this dark world.
