LOVE HIS TRUTH
Reading recently in my Bible I came across this:
"GOD'S PEOPLE MUST LOVE HIS TRUTH FIRST AND FOREMOST, AND OUT OF THAT LOVE WILL FLOW THE PROPER TREATMENT OF OTHERS."
Isn't it a given that when we read HIS truth daily, our hearts and minds are changed daily? So we go to HIS word, over and over. It is love and truth that distinguish GOD'S people from those who do not belong to HIM.
WITH GOD LOVE AND TRUTH ABOUND
When we love GOD'S truth, then we act in that truth, because truth in love is always the best approach. We all have issues with difficult people, but when we see that person through GOD'S eyes of grace then we can respond in truth and love.
Isn't it a given that we all tend to look at others first, instead of looking inward? And because of this, judgement occurs instead of leaving the judging up to our GOD? In all of this however, the truth will set us free........
PSALM 86: 11 "TEACH ME YOUR WAY, O LORD, THAT I MAY WALK IN YOUR TRUTH."
Let this verse sink in. We are to walk in HIS truth, not our own truth. The world will tell you that your very own truth is valid, but GOD'S word says that HIS truth is the only truth.
ISAIAH 45: 19 "I THE LORD SPEAK THE TRUTH; I DECLARE WHAT IS RIGHT."
Just know today and every day that GOD can be taken at HIS word. And HIS word will stand forever. It is timeless and eternal. Read HIS truth every day and then use it as your anchor whenever you are interacting with others. We need this now in our current world more than ever. The darkness is becoming more evident and only HIS word speaks light into that darkness. Out of HIS amazing truth in the light, our behavior and treatment of others in love will then shine for all to see! And when we shine, people look to and glorify our GOD!
1 PETER 1: 22-23 "LOVE ONE ANOTHER EARNESTLY FROM A PURE HEART, SINCE YOU HAVE BEEN BORN AGAIN NOT OF PERISHABLE SEED BUT OF IMPERISHABLE, THROUGH THE LIVING AND ABIDING WORD OF GOD......."
