HOLD ON TO THE TRUTH
“The lip of truth shall be established forever, but a lying tongue is but for a moment.” Proverbs 12:19 KJV
“The lip of truth shall be established” – what a powerful truth from the word of God that will encourage believers at any time. What is the truth? The truth is not what you are feeling or experiencing, the truth is the word of God. Whenever you lay hold of the truth, don’t let it go. Keep speaking it and hold on to it tenaciously because it is only the lip of truth that shall be established forever. The lying tongue is but for moment, it is temporary. The lying tongue is the tongue of the devil. The devil does nothing other than speak lies and create fear in the heart of people. Don’t ever believe the devil because he is a specialist in lying. That is his assignment, that’s what he specializes in doing.
Jesus Christ was speaking with the people in John 8:44, He said, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lust of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning and abode not in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it.” I don’t know if the devil has spoken to you lately on any area of your life; but understand this, child of God that whatever he has said to you is a lie. And whatever God has said is the truth and shall be established forever. I challenge you therefore to hold on to the truth, hold on to it because it will never fail. It is sure. “The grass withereth, the flower fadeth but the word of our God shall stand forever.” (Isaiah 40:8 KJV). Whatever the devil is saying concerning your life that God has not said ends today in Jesus name. Hold on to the truth; it shall come to pass.
