Seriously…What is Even Real in Life? When You Realized that You’ve Been Lied to Your Entire Life – How to Progress in the Midst of Deception.

Posted Sept 25, 2025 | End Times Watch | River Wilde

When someone in the past has spoken out, detailing the untruths of an event, they often are referred to as being a conspiracy theorist. They are met with great resistance to denounce their credibility through a personal attack on their character.

Respectfully, there are MANY people now who cannot look away any more, and are boldly conveying that we have been lied to “Our Entire Lives.” This has gone from just a few, to a popular way of thinking right now. Are your eyes open? Are YOU able to see the deceptive acts that have happened, and are happening at this moment?

As we are all watching the narrative relating to the shooting of Charlie Kirk, given to us by the FBI, we BOLDLY see things begin to crumble due to all of the untruths that are being unraveled. A GREAT AWAKENING is occurring, as many are beginning to see that we are being played by once trusted agencies.

As I listened to Candace Owens rip holes in what the FBI has shared, it is no longer difficult to see right through this false narrative. It is also a time of deep reflection relating to other such lies and cover ups:

911

The Moon Landing

JFK Assassination

COVID-19

Vaccines

The 2017 Country Music Shooting

Boston Marathon Bombing

Jan 6, 2021 Attack on the Capitol

Maui Wildfires of 2023

Attack on Pearl Harbor

Are you awake yet? I AM!!! Especially when I include God, asking Him to open my eyes so that I can see through the lies from once trusted officials, religious leaders, and other agencies.

This article is not being written to prove to you that these listed events are untrue, my intent is to help all of you who have been entangled in the lies and deception from trusted leaders, process the emotion of betrayal. How could they? WHY? And, where do we go from here?

When a person reaches this lever of awareness, that so many leaders once trusted, have been untruthful, playing us, it is emotionally disturbing for us. To assist you with this emotion, let’s take a look at the reasons that are behind this deception. Why are leaders deceiving us?

Maintaining Power and Control (This is a big one)

Political Gain

Covering Up Misconduct

Ideological Control

Financial Incentive

Controlling a Narrative

Each of these reasons listed are insightful, however, I would like to tie them all together under one common theme – The Battle that we are currently engaged in, Good vs Evil.

As we zoom out to get a broad perspective of all of these events, we realize that there is a force at hand upon the earth that is destructive, evil, and is after the very souls of all of mankind. This is satan and his followers. HE is the deceiver…HE is the liar, and HE is after you and me.

This evil force, weather it be an organization, or a world enterprise, is all under the influence of this demonic force.

Deception through worldly rulers and authorities

Scriptures like Ephesians 6:12 indicate that evil forces operate through hierarchical levels, influencing “rulers of the darkness of this world”.

2 Corinthians 4:4 describes Satan as the “god of this world” who blinds the minds of unbelievers.

Revelation 12:9 states that Satan’s goal is to deceive the “whole world”, and Revelation 13 illustrates this through the rise of two beasts who work with Satan to deceive and control the world, representing a powerful political ruler and a religious figure.

Deception through false leaders

2 Corinthians 11:14–15 warns that Satan’s agents will disguise themselves as righteous leaders. WHAT?? Yes, you heard that right. Even Religious leaders! Let me list that entire scripture for you to read:

14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

Have you ever considered that satan would infiltrate religions to influence “the elect” in order to deceive them? As we see, the scriptures warn us of this.

2 Thessalonians 2:9–12 describes a “lawless one” empowered by Satan to deceive with signs and lies.

Additionally, 1 Timothy 4:1 mentions that deceptive doctrines from demons would be spread by false teachers, causing people to leave their faith.

And one more scripture… I have always read this thinking that it was speaking about our future, but have come to know that this scripture was written especially for me:

Matthew 24:24 (KJV)

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

I read this now as it pertains to my life…I and other members of my church have been deceived by a false prophet. This has already happened, and sadly, I fell for the lies my entire life.

This is what it’s all about! Biblical prophecy has instructed us that satan will influence leaders to deceive us for the purpose of control, and sway as many people as possible to join him as he desires our very souls and worship towards him. For, this is his goal. This is the prize of the game.

So now what? What can we do in realizing that many of the things in life that we have been taught, or told, are simply untrue…how can we overcome the heaviness of this understanding?

The answer is simpler that you might think, for I have live it first hand, and found a solution to be very effective in my progress through deception.

To me, it’s not so much about what is untrue in life. We can spend all of our time trying to prove the deception to ourselves and others, which only produces emotions of anger, despair, and even hate. These emotions in themselves are dark and can cause us to lose track of the light which always brings us peace. I would rather move forward through a different path. I desired to know what is true! I have spent my time focused on ONLY this…The Truth.

Once you realize that we are in the middle of a spiritual war, the truth needed right now needs to come from Jesus Christ who is a trusted source of information. This TRUE information is what we’ll need to be successful in navigating through this war. And the TRUTH is found in the Bible. Nothing More! These are the words of Jesus Christ when He was on the earth. Detailed is the GOSPEL that He taught which has NO NEED to be changed.

It also contains the words of HIS prophets. The book of Daniel is paramount in teaching us about the end times. He is telling us what to expect, SO THAT WE WILL NOT BE DECEIVED any further. I TRUST them! I trust their words, and I trust God.

For the past 2 years, I have studied the Bible immensely, with a specific desire to know about the end-times and how to prepare. It is through this study that I found TRUTH. Religious truth, as well as the events that are to come. I have dedicated this blog in sharing these truths with all of you. You can certainly do the same by focusing in on the teaching that are in this precious book. Do NOT look for truth to come from leaders…It needs to come from God.

There is a reason that your “prophet” is not teaching you about the end times, and the reason? You guessed it. Deception. People who have no knowledge of what is coming will be easier to deceive. Take control of your own spirituality. Don’t be a “Lazy Learner” and rely on someone else to tell you what is going to happen. If this is your strategy, you might want to rethink it, for you WILL be deceived.

Something that you should immediately be aware of is that this deception is prophesied to get more challenging to navigate through in these final 7 years on earth. When the antichrist comes upon the world stage, he will be very effective in leading many away from God, and into his own snare. And, let ME be the one who tells you this… He will be using your church leaders to assist him with this deception.

It putting the pieces back together regarding your discovery of deception, realize the evil power that is behind all of these things. Acknowledge the challenging power that satan has on influencing our leaders, even our religious leaders. He is the force behind all of this.

We can also acknowledge the emotion of hurt that we have experienced from these leaders, and the betrayal that we feel. This is a normal reaction that comes from betrayal. But as you take those emotions to God in prayer, ask Him to release the anger which it has caused you. I can promise that He will indeed do so. That was my very own experience, as anger was raging inside of me realizing that my spiritual leaders had deceived me on such an intimate level. God took that rage away from me after reading this scripture:

Romans 12:19 (KJV)
“Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.”

It isn’t that God will just sweep this under the rug… “VENGEANCE is Mine,” and I am somewhat happy that this is the emotion that even God will have in dealing with these false leaders.

So, where do we go from here? When you have been betrayed by once trusted leaders, we simply stop trusting liars..that’s quite simple. And who are the liars? This answer is simple as well… Many leaders. So, who can we trust, again… a very simple conclusion!!!

Trust God!

Trust God!

Trust God!

If you hear something from someone who is in a position of leadership, and it doesn’t sound quite right, take that information to God and ask Him, for He will tell you the truth!

This has become our new battle cry!
