Lighthouse Living
The LORD is my light and my salvation; I will fear no one.
The LORD protects me from all danger; I will never be afraid.
Psalm 27:1

Deceptive Packaging

¬Ý

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honorable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Philippians 4:8

¬Ý

Each time I shop I observe deceptive packaging. Manufacturers are redesigning bags, boxes and cartons to fool our eyes into believing we’Äôre getting more for our buck when the opposite is true. By looking at what the package holds you’Äôll find that it’Äôs less by several ounces. The price may look the same, but we’Äôre paying more for less. This is a 911 call to all believers. Be on guard! Satan is ripping us off in the same way. We mustn’Äôt be caught unaware. We mustn’Äôt be blind consumers of everything that’Äôs put before us. The packaging has changed, but the sin’Äôs still the same. We must stop being fooled by deceptive packaging and begin looking at the content. Philippians 4:8 has got to be the scale by which we weigh everything. Our carnal eyes can be fooled, but the Holy Spirit will always reveal to us the truth. If what we’Äôre indulging in doesn’Äôt stand the Philippians test then don’Äôt do it anymore. This is also a 911 call to unbelievers! Satan would suck you into believing the pleasures of life are a great reward, but when standing before the Lord and the product in the package is revealed you’Äôll discover death, destruction and eternal suffering. Good news, it’Äôs not too late to begin choosing to live wisely! Don’Äôt be fooled by deceptive packaging. Choose what’Äôs good and brings wholesome benefit to life. With God, what you see is what you get.
