Review: The Devil Can Only Lie

The Devil Can Only Lie book cover on blue background

What a joy to read about how God continues to transform the lives of His children. The Devil Can Only Lie by Kylie Kirkegaard is a memoir that inspires and calls readers to a life of devotion and holiness. It truly points back to Jesus Christ, giving Him all the glory for how He can turn things around when it is most bleak in our lives.

Content to be aware of: sexual sin (non-descriptive); political statements around the pandemic that readers may be sensitive to; spiritual practices such as words of prophecy

Book Synopsis

The Devil Can Only Lie unpacks the biblical reality that it is our responsibility to choose either the truth of God's Word, or the lies of the enemy. What we feed ourselves in the natural will always impact the spiritual, and this book is an important key to understanding all that God has for us as His Children, and how to arm ourselves so we cannot be easily deceived.

The Devil Can Only Lie… and You Can Only Choose.

Every battle you face in life begins with a choice: will you believe the lies of the enemy, or the truth of God’s Word?

In this book, Kylie exposes the subtle deceptions that keep believers trapped in defeat — in identity, marriage, friendships, and every area of life. With bold truth and practical biblical insight, she shows how victory is never about circumstances, people, or excuses. It is always about choice.

The devil has no real power — only lies. What you choose to believe will determine whether you walk in bondage or freedom.

If you’re ready to:

  • Recognize and reject the enemy’s lies
  • See Scripture through the right lens
  • Break free from tradition, religion, and compromise
  • Live fully in the victory Christ purchased for you

…then this book is your key.

It’s time to stop living by excuses and start living by choice — God’s truth or the enemy’s lies. The decision is yours.

Book Thoughts

It is astounding to think of just how much God loves us and the depths He will go to to save us. In reading Kylie Kirkegaard's memoir, it is clear that God has had His hand on her life even in the midst of despair and sin. This memoir is a poignant reminder that He is always faithful, no matter what. Combining this raw testimony with what God has been teaching her from the Bible, readers will be blessed to see how a thirst for truth has led Kylie to redemption and freedom. It's the same thirst that she desires to impart to readers, pleading for them to turn to the source of life when plagued by the trials of this world.

Although some faith practices are not applicable to me, I appreciate that there is an exhortation to test everything against the Bible. If there is one continual thread throughout this book, it is that we can counter any lie from the enemy with Scripture, making it imperative that we immerse ourselves in the Bible. Readers who enjoy reading powerful Christian testimonies will find the work of God to be in abundance in The Devil Can Only Lie as His truth is uplifted and celebrated.

Review: Pride and Practicality

After reading  Sense and Suitability by Pepper Basham , I've been absolutely hooked on how she writes a Regency story! Pride and Practicality follows Simon Reeves' sister, Arianna, as she returns home to her family after escaping a scandal. I love her redemption story and am so thrilled that I've also been able to meet my favourite clergyman, Thomas Bridges. Many thanks to Thomas Nelson and NetGalley for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis In a world ruled by reputation, compassion may be the most scandalous act of all. Arianna Reeves knows how quickly admiration can turn into exile. One poorly placed trust, one disastrously charming rake, and she is no longer society's darling—but its favorite cautionary tale. Now returned home—uninvited and unmistakably whispered about—Arianna is determined to make amends with her estranged family and do something useful with her thoroughly ruined life. Even ...

Life Up North

I'm going to go against my previous posts about keeping my opinions to myself on things outside of faith and reading by sharing some of my recent experiences instead. I figure that if we read fiction to broaden our understanding of other perspectives that it might be worthwhile for me to share how things have been for me as a non-representative Canadian (I'm not speaking for anyone else here!) 😄 I'll be honest in that it's been tough in the last few weeks and months. I've done my best to keep up my optimism and more importantly, my hope in Christ, Who is unchanging and steadfast. Rulers come and go, nations evolve and change, and politics can swing back and forth, but God is immutable and sovereign over all things. That being said, recent geopolitical factors have resulted in an emotional toll on me and a lot of the people I interact with in my life. While I am grateful that I can place my burdens at the foot of the cross, I recognize that others in my life have va...
