The father of lies lies. That’s what he does. That’s his “claim to fame”. So when his children lie and utter untrue words aimed toward you, know that they are being true to their nature. Don’t give credibility to their lies by becoming angry. Allowing yourself to become aroused when a liar does what’s in his or her DNA goes against our nature as children of God. We stand for the truth and a lie will never be able to stand in the light of the truth.
Living by faith takes the pressure off. Living by faith brings peace. It fosters calm. It tells me what’s there even though I sometimes can’t see through the haze of life’s problems. To be able to live this way is a huge blessing. It gives me the advantage in every area of my life. I cannot be thrown off course because I already know where I’m going and I trust my Father to take me there. Walking by faith is true life and peace. And most importantly, living by faith is my greatest expression of my love of God.
God’s Word is life. It’s the source of all life. There is no life outside of God’s Word. He spoke His Word in the beginning and the lives that we now live have been perpetuated down through the years. A Spirit being created a body out of the dust of the earth. Then He breathed life into that dust body and man became a living being. He is the reason we woke up this morning, not our alarm clocks. Try this. Take your alarm clock down to the County Morgue. Set it to go off then tell me how many of those corpses wake up?
