Don't Exchange The Truth For A Lie

Don't exchange the truth for a lie. The Word of God is true, don't exchange it for whatever else. Anything that doesn't match up to the word of God is a lie. To exchange the word of God for something else is a grave sin. That was the grave error that Adam and Eve had committed. God said that if they eat the fruit of the tree, they will surely die. The devil said, they will not surely die. They decided to go for the devil's word instead of God's word. Therefore the history that we all know.

God said to Joshua: This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. When we hold on to the truth of the word of God, the natural result would be our success! And that is really the purpose of that book. To tell us what to do; to lead us in the way of life, of prosperity, of success. When we go the other way, we commit the same thing as Adam and Eve did.

The word of God says, do not be anxious about anything; we should do exactly that. That is not easy to do especially when we talk about major stuff; but we need at least to start somewhere. And so at some point we got to break that habit of worrying and being troubled and fearful always. If something goes wrong or something gets damaged, we should be quick to remember that our God is a God who restores even to double of what was lost.

It is important to know that Book. So that we can know what is our hope. To a cancer patient who doesn't know about Christ, all is lost. The doctors proclaim his remaining days and all he could do is wither into deep sorrow. But a true believer will not be afraid because there is a part in the Scripture that says, by His stripes we are healed! While the former has hope of death, the latter has hope of life.

Do not exchange the truth for a lie, there is cure for cancer, and all you need to do is to know about it.

Between God and the Politician

Often we hear during election time of Politicians platform of government and promised infrastructure projects should they be elected in office. But all those talk and speeches just go back to the filing cabinets once elections are through and kept hid until the next elections. So between God and the Politician is a great chasm, a great divide between truth and lies because Man's words are often empty, but the Word of God is never empty. Not because Man wants to lie but because he is not capable of keeping his every word. God on the other hand is able. God said: But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings, and you shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts (Mal 4:2-3). Those words are not empty. Surely they come to pass to them which receives them. And God has declared it that ...

Treasure Nuggets

(Gen 2:17)  but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die." This goes to show that God never intended man to die. Man was meant for eternity with God. It was when Adam ate of that fruit that death entered in and reigned. (Rom 5:20)  Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, Where to find grace? It is in the very area of your shortcoming. Where sin increased, grace abounded all the more! Paul rejoices in his weaknesses for God says, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness (2Co 12:9). "   Paul declares, "For when I am weak, then I am strong!" Receive the grace of God where you have fallen, for it is there that grace abounds all the more! (Joh 15:3)  Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you. The word of God is powerful. Let it dwell in you richly. It is through th...

Ask In Faith

Jas 1:5-8 (5) If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. (6) But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. (7) For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. (8) A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. God is a giver. That is His nature. God is willing to give more than we are wanting to have. Verse 5 in the NIV reads: "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." God does not find fault. He will not examine whether there is something wrong with you. He will not count it against you even if you blew it. He just wants to give. Only that we ask in faith. Not doubting. Because if we ask full of faith, the excercise of that wisdom will also be full of faith. The excercise of that wisdo...
