Is It True?

Truth!

Tell the truth!

Tell me the truth!

Sometimes when we least expect it  an untruth presents itself and instead of refusing to entertain it we throw it the biggest party ever!

Eventually the untruth begins to replace the truth we have been hanging on to.

When that happens our world begins to rock. 

Eventually we may not be able to recognize the truth.

I've been there and done that. 

A phrase that has been said by many is one that God recently shed His light on.  I was having a conversation with someone who finds herself in the middle of what appears to be "a pack of lies".  She is feeling battered and bruised and finding it impossible to let the joy of the Lord be her strength. During our conversation she said "I've been praying for the truth to come out".

I think we've probably all said that at one time or another.

This time however the Lord brought this to mind:  Where is truth that we would ask it to "come out"?  Truth is not hiding.  Truth is God's power to prevail over all the lies of the world , the flesh and the devil.

Truth stands strong and no matter the lies that stand in its way, Truth always prevails.  Let's thank God for Truth.  He is Truth.  He, Himself said "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life." (John 14:6)

May we come boldly to the throne of grace asking not for truth "to come out "but rather asking and believing for Truth to prevail!

In every moment of our lives!
