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.

Many thanks to the author for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.

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.

Though some of the teachings are a little unfamiliar to me, such as words of prophecy, 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 workings of God to be in abundance in The Devil Can Only Lie as Truth is uplifted and celebrated.

Theological Backgrounds

Have you ever wondered about the theological background of authors? I am sometimes curious, especially if there are things that pop up in their books that make me pay attention (either positively or negatively). What I've found is that it's not always easy to find out. Some authors will openly share what church or denomination they belong to, whereas others don't seem to mention it—which for privacy concerns, I completely understand. In terms of how important this information may be for readers, or not at all for some, it does make me think about the role that this could play when deciding which books to read and buy. On the one hand, I think not specifically knowing which theological stream an author comes from but still being aware that they fall within the broader evangelical umbrella is fine with me. There's so much to learn as believers and I wouldn't want to be limited to only simply what I know. On the other hand, not knowing much beyond "Christian"...

Christian vs. Clean

This is a theme that isn't new if you've been following some of my musings over the past several months. You could even say this is the natural progression of taking this line of thinking to its conclusion. In evaluating which books to read, the refrain of Christian vs. clean has become so ingrained in my thinking that it's practically been on repeat for me. To be honest, I've never really held a view on Christian vs. clean books until the end of last year. Most of my reading since becoming a Christian has been all over the place, where I believed that acquiring knowledge, almost any knowledge, was worth it for the sake of becoming more learned. Being a voracious reader meant that I would consume most anything—especially if it was free as I didn't have a lot of books growing up (my parents preferred to take me to the library on a weekly basis as I would have cost them too much in books 😂). However, God has definitely been impressing upon me the conviction that I ca...
