Life's Deception

When you speak of the devil, what should come to mind shouldn't always be that evil someone with two horns, moreover he was not created that way, and he just might be the most handsome or beautiful person you can see, but then what the word "Devil" truly means is an intelligent person, yes there you have it, so intelligent.

If Tom cruise can be payed to act a role for few money, then how much more would the devil be more talented when he has a greater task to achieve, trying to war against the greatest and in fact the one and only Almighty creator, his act would not just be ordinary, it would be supernatural. Since he might not be coming down to work by himself, he would sure need people to do all that, and this people he must groom to be crazily good too, indeed the wicked people appear more intelligent while the good feel life should be simple.

Ever watched a movie and its like the bad guys are smarter than the main actors, like they make the right moves, only in the end does the good prevail over the bad, as the good guy wins finally. Well that is just reality, the wicked overtime must have learnt to work smarter, moreover if they would continue to do the bad things they do then they must learn to find a way out, you can't possibly judge them by their characters, they can act up so well you'll think they are just innocent, you can't use enough psychology to connote their emotions, they are so in character, tears can fall off their eyes easily, its just so crazy how talented the bad guys can be, more reason why the good guys fall victims mostly.

Have you ever been wronged and you got angry that you acted in anger and at the end of it all, it felt like you were the bad one and the real bad person became the saint, huh? How did you feel. Emotional intelligence is one attribute to grasp as living individuals, you can get the whole strength and power but if you can't think smart and act right, you can easily be decieved by a muscleless person, as much as we want to be good and stay good, we must be smart enough to know how to counter wickedness with the right approach when it comes.

Not every time we need to shout or use force, sometimes it's calm, sometimes is the right facial expressions, sometimes its the right words in the right tone texture. The greatest phycologists would be brought to examine a real wicked person who has been in the game for a long time and he still would be fooled, it's almost like choosing to be bad comes with a special package called smartness, however they can enjoy the now but they all would have a bad end, there is no two ways about that, the end can't be good both their end on earth and that of after death. So the best option still remains to stay good at all cost.

No wonder why the bible chooses to applaud them saying, "In these times the children of the world are wiser than the children of light", Luke 16 vs 8. We can't keep refusing to learn the needful and expect that things should just happen supernaturally because you're a good person. In a class of good and bad, if the bad ones chooses to devote more time to study than the good people of the class, Then God would not give the top positions to the good people, no our God is good, fine but he's always justified. If you must get somethings then you must show efforts that you're deserving of it, then he would make it happen, or in better sense you made it happen yourself, he just watched it cause its already a programmed law, you reap what you sow.

One great example of the importance of being intelligent is another illustration still in the bible, please follow closely, I understand that not everyone is a Christian but this story is a lesson for all. Its the life story of Apostle Paul who was formerly called Saul, now saul was a great advocate fighting against the Christians as at that time, infact he was so active that he was feared by the Christians, he had the right words to say, knew the right steps to take, he was learned and so he was well sorted after, he lead the persecution and killing of many of the Christians as at that time.

However while people were praying that God take him out by killing him or sending him away, this prayer is something they should have prayed undoubtedly because this man was good at his job, but Gods plan was different, he had probably searched through and found no other person as commited and devoted to a course as Saul, just one man can cause this much effect, then he most definitely have something to offer, God instead decided that Saul was better alive on his part than dead, and God stole him over, you can get the full story in the bible or online, but here is the take home of it all, this Paul who was stolen because of his level of intelligence and commitment to a course, ended up written most of the book of the new testament we are reading today.

Others wrote one or two chapters but Saul now popularly called Apostle Paul wrote more, and not just that he took the gospel to farther countries and region than any other did, he infact had more effect, he was locked up in prison, beaten, humiliated but his passion still made sure this newly found love in Christianity went to the ends of the earth. So yes you can be good but are you valuable enough, have you learnt to win the fight against the wicked, have you improved your state of mind, your emotional response and knowledge?

If we the good People can learn to up our games then we would be helping the world be a better place, when they want to come to us with deceit, we are ready as we know the right moves to take, just as a game of chess, we have mastered our boards, we are ready to push goodness and build a good army, the wicked have their numbers increasing because people obviously see them as the winning side, they are no longer caring about the end results, they however wish the good was stronger and smarter cause everyone wants to be right but they can't just love to keep loosing.

Learn to act right, be intelligent and work smarter, but please in all this remain good, we need more good people to be intelligent, because the bad ones already have a larger number.

Thanks For Reading.
