My life changed when I started to understand that nothing in this world can affect me, unless I give it that power.

Unfortunately, many Christians today neglect studying their Bible, which opens them up to deceptive ways of thinking. This neglect is bringing strong spiritual delusion that is lead to many's destruction. We need to be in the Word daily, so we don't fall for Satan’s schemes.

Whatever you do, pray for the ability to see your own sins, your own hypocrisy, and your own shortcomings. Never lose sight of that. Never get so carried away, pointing fingers that you forget you, too, have abscesses that need tending.

He stopped the sun for Joshua. He parted the Red Sea for Moses. He opened prison doors for Paul and Silas. He raised Lazarus back to life. Never doubt God’s mighty power. You are next in line!

Women For Change condemns, in the strongest possible terms, the horrific assault that took place at Milnerton High School where a group of boys violently attacked a Grade 10 learner. The incident reportedly occurred on 16 October, shortly after classes ended. In the circulating video, a learner can be seen enduring both physical and verbal abuse while other students stand by without intervening. The footage is deeply distressing and underscores the urgent need to confront the culture of violence and bullying that continues to plague our schools. We urge everyone to stop sharing and distributing the video immediately. The footage identifies minors and further harms those involved. Circulating such content violates the dignity, privacy, and protection rights of the children and retraumatises not only the victims but also countless others who have experienced similar violence. This brutal attack is not “school misbehaviour” - it is a violent crime, and it must be treated as such. Schools must be spaces of safety and respect, not fear and humiliation. The Western Cape Education Department and Milnerton High School must take decisive disciplinary and restorative action, ensure accountability for all involved, and provide both counselling and long-term psychological support to the affected learners and their families. We call on all schools across South Africa to implement comprehensive anti-bullying programmes, strengthen psychosocial support, and uphold a zero-tolerance policy toward violence, intimidation, and abuse in any form. No child should ever endure such brutality, especially in a place meant to nurture, educate, and protect them. We stand firmly with the victim, their family, and every learner who deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported. #womenforchange

Satan isn’t wasting his efforts on those already lost. His real target has always been the people who think they serve God. That’s why Jesus warned that even the elect would be deceived if it were possible. The deception isn’t going to look like darkness. It’s going to look like revival, truth, and divine justice to the undiscerned. The Antichrist will speak in religious language, invoke Scripture, and even appear to defend God’s people, all while subtly redirecting devotion away from the true Messiah. He will present himself as the savior of Christianity and the liberator of Israel. The world will see him as light, peace, and order restored. But in reality, it’s the culmination of the counterfeit plan, a false kingdom, just like how Satan masquerades as an angel of light. That’s why discernment is everything in this hour. The final deception wasn’t designed for the unbelieving world, it was designed for us.

Your heart told you to cheat on your wife. Your heart told you the job was more important than your kids. Your heart told you one more drink wouldn't hurt, one more scroll wouldn't matter, one more compromise was just being realistic. Your heart is a liar and you built your life on what it said. "Follow your heart" isn't wisdom. It's the oldest con in history repackaged for people too coward to call sin what it is. Jeremiah 17:9 says your heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked. That's not poetry. That's a warning label on the thing you've been treating like a compass. Disney taught your daughters that true love means betraying commitments when feelings change. Therapy taught you that your truth matters more than God's. Self-help influencers taught you that if it feels right, it must be right. Now your family's wrecked, your word means nothing, and you're confused why everything you touched turned to ash. Because you followed your heart straight into hell and called it self-discovery. Your heart doesn't want what's good for you. It wants what feels good right now. There's a difference and it costs everything. Your heart wants the affair because marriage is hard. Your heart wants the quit because building is harder than burning. Your heart wants the comfort because the cross is for other people. Your heart is Judas and you keep letting it negotiate. Every generation that followed their hearts left wreckage for the next one to clean up. Broken homes. Abandoned kids. Debts that compound. Patterns that repeat. All because someone decided their feelings mattered more than their commitments. You know what your heart won't tell you? That obedience builds what feelings destroy. That covenant matters more than chemistry. That the hard road produces the man your easy road never could. Your heart doesn't have a plan past next week. God's Word has sustained kingdoms for millennia. Your heart hasn't survived pressure. The Spirit's carried martyrs through fire. Your heart flinches at correction. Battle-worn community sharpens you whether you like it or not. Your heart wants permission. God demands surrender. You're not special. You're not the exception. You're not the first person to think your feelings are so pure and unique that biblical truth doesn't apply. You're just the latest casualty in a war you didn't know you were losing. Following your heart feels like freedom until you realize it's just slavery to whatever desire is loudest. Following God feels like death until you realize it's the only thing that produces actual life. The world's full of people who followed their hearts. Most of them are alone, bitter, or dead. The kingdom's built by people who killed their hearts and followed a King. Stop asking what your heart says. Start asking what God says. —TBM

Satan is not opposed to good morals. He’s opposed to Jesus Christ. Read that again because most Christians miss this completely. Satan doesn’t care if you’re a “good person.” He doesn’t care if you volunteer at the food bank, recycle your trash, and help old ladies cross the street. He doesn’t care if you’re kind, generous, and well-liked by everyone in your community. He cares that you don’t bow the knee to Jesus. Here’s the deception that’s damning millions: Satan has convinced people that morality equals spirituality. That being a “good person” is the same as being a Christian. That if you just live right, treat people well, and avoid the “big sins,” you’re acceptable to God. This is a lie straight from the pit of hell. The Pharisees had impeccable morals. They followed the law meticulously. They were respected, disciplined, and religiously devoted. Jesus called them children of the devil. Why? Not because their morals were bad. Because their morals replaced Christ. Satan’s greatest trick isn’t making bad people worse. It’s making good people think they don’t need a Savior. Think about it: The atheist who feeds the homeless thinks he’s good enough without God. The Buddhist who meditates and practices compassion thinks she’s enlightened without Christ. The Muslim who prays five times daily thinks he’s righteous without Jesus. The moral Christian who goes to church, pays his tithe, and avoids scandal thinks he’s saved without surrender. All of them are headed to the same place: eternal separation from God. Because morality doesn’t save. Jesus saves. “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9 Satan loves moral people who reject Jesus. They’re his best advertisement for the lie that you can earn your way to heaven. They’re living proof that you can: •Be kind without Christ •Be generous without God •Be disciplined without the Holy Spirit •Be respected without redemption And still be lost. The most dangerous people in hell won’t be the murderers and rapists. They’ll be the moral, upstanding citizens who thought their goodness was good enough. Their morals became their idol. Their goodness became their god. And Satan smiled because he’d accomplished his goal: Keep them from Jesus. Here’s what most Christians don’t understand: Satan doesn’t need to make you do bad things. He just needs to keep you from doing the ONE thing that matters: surrendering to Christ. If he can get you to: •Trust your morals instead of Christ’s sacrifice •Rely on your goodness instead of God’s grace •Believe in your works instead of Jesus’ finished work He’s won. You can live a moral life and still die lost. You can be a good person and still face judgment. You can avoid all the “big sins” and still end up separated from God forever. Because the only sin that damns you eternally is rejecting Jesus Christ. “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.” John 3:36 Not the murderer who repents and believes in Christ is damned. Not the thief who turns to Jesus on the cross is damned. Not the prostitute who washes Jesus’ feet with her tears is damned. The moral, religious person who rejects Christ is damned. That’s why Satan loves morality without Jesus. It sends people to hell with a smile on their face, convinced they were good enough. Stop trusting your morals. Start trusting Jesus. Your goodness won’t save you. Your works won’t redeem you. Your morality won’t justify you. Only the blood of Jesus Christ can wash away your sin and make you acceptable to a holy God. Everything else is just Satan’s distraction from the one thing that actually matters. —TBM
