You’ve heard it said, ‘You’ve got to stand for something or you’ll fall for anything.’ The Bible tells us to put on the whole armour of God so we will be able to stand against evil. Our helmet of salvation and sword of the Spirit is the Word of God. Our faith shields us from the fiery darts of the wicked. Reading God’s Word enables us to know Him better and grows our faith so we are able to stand on His Truth. Don’t listen to or follow the world! Listen to and follow The Voice of Truth.
John 14:6 - “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” 1Peter 1:2-4a – “Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that [pertain] unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature …” 2Timothy 2:19a - “Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his …” John 17:17 - “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”
Song Lyrics: Scared. I thought I knew scared, but I'm so filled with fear I can barely move. Doubt. I've had my share of doubt, but never more than right now, and I'm wondering where You are, Jesus. I’m here on the edge of fall-apart, but somehow Your promises find my troubled heart and this is the truth I'm standing on: Even when all my strength is gone, You are faithful forever and I know You'll never let me fall. Right now I'm choosing to believe that someday soon I'll look back and see all the pain had a purpose; Your plan was perfect all along! You're still good even when life isn’t. I won’t lose hope. You’re my rock, my shield, my firm foundation! The God who parts the sea promises He's gonna make a way for me. This is the truth I'm standing on.
Our pain has a purpose. Don’t lose Hope! Stand on His truth … He keeps His promises!
