Satan is a liar. He wants to steal our joy and replace it with hopelessness. When we're up against a struggle and we think we can't keep going, we can change that by praising God. Our chains will fall from us. Meese encouraged me by reminding me of the real reason we have for fully living this life. It's to give everything we have to God--even the heartbreaks and pain. God is our reason to live. Don Piper
About This Quote

The Bible says "Satan is a liar" in 1 John 4:1. Satan wants to steal our joy. He wants us to believe that there is no reason for anything in this life, including the bad things that happen to us. Satan will always try to convince us that we are not worth the effort.

We are worth something because of our relationship with Christ. When we are up against a struggle and we think we can't keep going, we can change that by praising God. Our chains will fall from us, but there is no reason for them not to fall.

The Bible promises that when we praise God, even when we are in pain, the chains will fall off of us.
