Good morning everyone and welcome back to another morning with the masters where we devote

ourselves to the Lord daily with you.

Good morning you guys.

We are picking up with day five of our live no lies devotion in the Bible app there's a link to that in the

description of the podcast if you guys want to follow along with us and as always I'm gonna read the

scripture then Tor is gonna pick up with the devo let's do it the

scripture is second Timothy chapter 2 verse 26 and it says this The they have been held captive by him to do whatever he wants.

The devotional is titled Healing Emotional Woons.

And it says, let's turn now from the ideology that plays in the cultural wars to the lies we believe about ourselves.

Most of the lies we face don't make news headlines or end up in Twitter debates.

It's the grown man who was brave. news headlines or end up in Twitter debates.

It's the grown man who was berated by his father

and comes to believe, I am only as good

as I am successful at work.

It's the teenage girl who, comparing herself to the mirage of

Instagram, comes to believe I am ugly and unworthy of love. It's the pastor who was a high energy child, regularly scolded by her

parents who now believes I'm a bad person. It's the entrepreneur whose prior business failed after the betrayal of his partner who now believes everything I do will fail.

It's the middle-aged woman who was raised by an angry perfectionist mother and decades later still believes I have

to be perfect to have peace.

I've changed the details for anonymity, but these aren't hypothetical examples.

They are small sampling of thousands of stories people have trusted me with as their

pastor.
