The word for today is - Lie !

Good morning,

The word for today is - Lie !

 

What is a lie? A liar is a person who is lying, who has previously lied, or who tends by nature to lie repeatedly - even when not necessary. A deception trying to mislead another person or people. Let us first give a definition as to what a lie is according to Webster’s dictionary;To make a statement that one knows is false, especially with the intent to deceive;to give a false impression or action. To make a false statement in order to evade the truth,a false story or excuse in order to deceive. Also let's find out what deceive means;To cause one to believe what is not true; mislead. Since God cannot lie, He sets the example for all to follow. It is God's desire that we follow that example in all that we say and do. Read Exodus 20:16,Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour. An example of lying and deceit is given in Acts 5:1-3,But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet. But Peter said, "Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?" You can lie to others and yourself, but you can not lie to the Holy Ghost.Let's look at Proverbs11:3,The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.One who is “hasty in words or impulsive in thought” doesn’t take enough time to think about what they are saying. They usually don’t have too much thought behind their words.The point is that our words should mean something,our words should be well thought out. Jesus always kept His Word and His word is true. That is why He is reliable and we can trust His word. Read 1 Corinthians 13:4-7,Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. Don't lie to others,walk in charity it never seeks its own to hurt others, or to neglect others. Read Hebrews 13:16, But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.Thank you God for your word. Amen !
