” EVEN IF EVERYONE ELSE IS A LIAR, GOD IS TRUE. ” ROMANS 3:4
How do we tell a lie from the truth? Some lies are very easy to read. But others are not. Some people have become professional liars. They have a way of spinning the truth into something that is not the truth. The professional liars can make the truth sound like the truth. They can act compassionate and loving toward others while all the time spinning their tales in order to better their own situations. So, who do we believe? How do we tell who is being honest and truthful and who isn’t? Romans 3:4 tells us that our God in heaven is always true. You and I have a great guide that the Lord has provided to us. He sent the Holy Spirit to us. He brings our Lord closer. If we run up against someone or something that is in direct opposition to what we believe the Holy Spirit will help us to define the good from evil. We must, however, listen to the Holy Spirit. If you are confronting a situation is your life where you just aren’t sure of the decisions you are making, then back off. Take time to pray and ask God to help you make that decision. If you hear a small voice inside you say, “slow down”, then take a step back and slow down. The devil is a smooth operator but he knows the longer it takes you to make a decision the better the chance it will be the right one. There is only one person we can depend on for all of the true and correct answers and that person is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We must stay close to him by listening to the Holy Spirit. We must meditate upon his word and pray to him consistently. We must stay sensitive to his word and his truth. We must live for him and in him. He is our only guide, truth and strength. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
