People lie.

I’m sorry, but they do.

Sometimes intentionally.

Sometimes accidentally.

Sometimes with what they believe are good intentions.

Sometimes to be cruel.

Sometimes to be kind.

Sometimes habitually.

Sometimes by omission.

Sometimes out of confusion, because of mental defect or as the result of some imbibed substance.

Get the picture?  People lie.

But you can take God at His word.

How comforting, reassuring, empowering is that!

Not only does He not lie, He does not change His mind.  He speaks, then acts; promises then fulfills (Numbers 23:19 NLT).

Christian artists, Avalon, sings “Everybody’s looking for something to believe in…the faithful are few and far between.  The more I read about You, the less I’ve cause to doubt You.  What You say, You mean!  I can take You at Your word.  My heart can rest assured.”

In this crazy world where little is as it seems, be encouraged that God is true to His word.  He is Who He says He is.  He does what He says He will do.

Avalon’s lyrics also say, “Your word is life. Your word is love. Your word is truth.”

That’s “a word” you can count on!

THIS WEEK delve into the truths of God’s word.  To know His truths and to claim His promises, you must know them!
