The Lord Is The Only Truth! By Nanyamka Boyer
Greetings my beloved brother or sister in our Beloved, Awesome Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ, our Strength in Life, both spiritually and physically! It is my prayer that on this day you and your loved ones are found in good health and in the joy of the Lord. For abiding daily in the Lord, as we seek Him, through His Word, prayer, praise and worship music, gives us the opportunity to remain filled to overflowing with His joy, presence, and His Precious and Faithful Holy Spirit! Blessed be His holy and Sweetest Name, always!
I want to remind you that when all is dark in your life and all around you in this world that our Blessed Savior and Lord is the Light of the world and of our lives, as He is the Light of the World, both spiritually and physically and He has also promised us through King Solomon in 1 Kings 8:12 that He would dwell in the thick darkness: "Then spake Solomon, The LORD said that He would dwell in the thick darkness." And also through our beloved King David in Psalm 139:11-12, we read that the darkness and the light, both spiritually and physically are alike or are the same unto and with the Lord: "If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me. Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee."
And the Lord Jesus Himself says in the Gospel of John in John 9:5 "As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world." So trust in the Lord as darkness or as trying times are in your life and all around you in this world, for remember that nothing is too hard for our Strong, Faithful and Mighty God to handle, as He says in Jeremiah 32:27 "Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?" And in Isaiah 59:1-4 He also says: "Behold, the LORD's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither is His ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid His face from you, that He will not hear; For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies: they (the wicked and the false Church) conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity."
So let us daily make sure that we are in right standing with the Lord and are not being judged or are going through severe sufferings in our lives because of rebellion and of our many sins against Him. For remember that the Lord is holy, sees all things in this world and commands us all (saints and sinners alike, for this is why the unbeliever is dead in sin and trespasses before the Lord, because they do not obey Him and are not saved) to be holy, as He is holy in His Word in Leviticus 19:2 "Speak to all the congregation of the people of Israel and say to them, You shall be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy." Also in Leviticus 20:7 "Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God." And in 1 Peter 1:15 -16 "But as He which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy."
On this day let us also remember that the Lord Jesus Christ is the ONLY truth in this world and nothing and no one else is. For all truth comes from Him alone and not from the world or from those who are right in their own eyes and do not fear Him. For as our beloved brother Paul the Apostle says in 1 Corinthians 3:18 "Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise." And in Galatians 6:3, the Lord through him also says: "For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself." For as a man truly fears the Lord and has been born again, will only speak the truth of the Lord's words and not his own foolish doctrine. For remember what the Lord says in Proverbs 9:10 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding." For a man who truly fears Him will think twice before they deceive people and would not give them what they want to hear, but only what the Lord would have him say that agrees with His holy Word that they need to hear to edify them. For that is wisdom. Remember that the Lord is One with His Word and would never contradict what He has already said in it.
The Lord wants me to remind you that in order for us to not be deceived by the enemy of our souls in this world, including through others, especially through his own children, the ungodly, we must love the truth and nothing but the truth, who is the Lord. For if we don't have a love for the truth of His Word and of His ways in our lives, we will then be given over to the lie, who is Satan, when he comes to reign in this world for the seven years, as the Lord through the Apostle Paul says in 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 "Even him (Jesus), whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
When the Lord speaks, He can only speak truth and no lie, for this is why He struggled so much with the religious leaders of His time when He first came to earth, because they did not believe in His Word. And told them in the Gospel of John in John 8:46-47 "Which of you conviceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe me? He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God." Also to Pilate at His trial He told him (Pilate) that all of those who are of the truth, who is Him, hear His voice in the Gospel of John in John 18:37 "Pilate therefore said unto Him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareath my voice." So we must love the Lord, believe in Him and in His Word in order for us to be saved. For it is the truth of God's Word and of the believing it that sets us free, as He says in John 8:31-32 "Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on Him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
And the Lord also wants me to remind you that He is a God who cannot lie and not repent, as He says in Numbers 23:19 "God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good?" So as He commands us in 2 Chronicles 20:20 "And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe His prophets, so shall ye prosper." So let us also take heed and do.
This is also why the Lord command us to buy the truth and sell it not once we find it or when we are born again, in Proverbs 23:23 "Buy the truth and sell it not: also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding." For by us obeying the Lord through His Word, that is the only truth in this world, we are truly His disciples and holy servants. For remember that His Word sanctifies us, as it is written in Ephesians 5:26-27 "That He might sanctify and cleanse it (the Church) with the washing of water by the word, That He might present it to Himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish." And even when the Lord corrects us through His Word, judgement and through others, whose words will always agree with His Word, it is for our own good and spiritual benefit, so that we don't die in our sin and are judged later with the world, when they are judged. So trust in the Lord's Word and Wisdom, for the Lord alone is truth and the Truth of this World! Blessed be His holy name!
God bless you and remember to always take the Lord with you wherever you go, so He through His Faithful and Mighty Holy Spirit, can guide you into all truth, as He promises us in the Gospel of John that He would do when we follow Him in John 16:13 "Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come." Have a blessed day!
