Are We Aware of Masks

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?   ( Mat 7:15,16)
Its the same verse as of yesterday, but the Lord is speaking in another manner to all of us this day.
Its a word of Caution from the Lord as He starts off saying or asking the reader to BE CAREFUL OR CAUTIOUS of a group, the false Prophets. Jesus Christ who is loving and because of His care for us, He is telling us that we are living among a world of people who wear masks on them. Its not just about the false prophets, but we all do also have various masks on us. Look at how Jesus reveals to us about their masks. He says that they are one who wear a mask of a sheep outward but inward they are like wolves who are wanting to destroy the ones in front of them. They are the ones who never like others move in the good path, they never want others to be close to God.
Another term used in the Bible are the HYPOCRITES. An Hypocrite means a person who pretends to be what he is not. Such people are also ones with mask on them. They say/show off one thing in them but inward they are not so. They are ones who hide their real identity from others. But how long. Christ Jesus reminds us that it cannot be covered for long. One day all will be revealed as in Luke 12:2 – 3
Luk 12:2 For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. 
Luk 12:3 Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.
There are many verses about hypocrites or about a person who pretends to be what he is not.
Dear ones, we need to be careful and look out for pretenders in life. We too have many such masks and please continue reading the devotions as the Lord will point out the MASKS in us.
God bless you. AMEN
