Summary: Sometimes the devil gives you what you think you want—in order to tempt you down a path of moral shortcuts. But the long-term result of giving in to temptation is losing control of your own self-government.

Verse: "He shall enter peaceably even upon the fattest places of the province; and he shall do that which his fathers have not done, nor his fathers' fathers; he shall scatter among them the prey, and spoil, and riches: yea, and he shall forecast his devices against the strong holds, even for a time."
—Daniel 11:24
