Your view of God shapes every other area of your life. Tragically, most people's perception of God is shaped by their own thoughts, feelings and experiences rather than by God's revelation of Himself.

Christians as well as non-Christians frequently speak of misfortune and accidents, of circumstances beyond our (and presumably God's) control, of things just happening by chance. Down through the centuries, sickness, suffering, and sorrow have always raised questions about God's control and care of His creation. Questions like: if God is both powerful and good, why is there so much suffering, so much pain, so much heartache in the world?

What we believe about God is foundational to our whole belief system. If we have wrong thinking about God, we will have wrong thinking about everything else. What we believe about God determines the way we live. From the Garden of Eden to the present day, Satan has targeted women for deception. He begins by telling us lies about God, lies like: 1. "God is not really good. If He were, He would . . ." When Satan wanted to tempt the woman to rebel against God, he did so by planting in her mind a seed of doubt about God's goodness ...
