Scripture says that Satan is the father of lies and there is no truth in him (John 8:44). Would you like to learn how to defeat the attack on your self-worth and have victory in your thought life?

Do you ever find yourself surrounded by negative thoughts? Do you feel defeated, as though your hard circumstances will never change and God doesn’t even care at all?
