God NEVER lies!


  Did you ever have someone lie to you or about you?  Their word was trash and sooner or later everyone figured out not to trust their word.

  God is not like that.  Did I ever tell you that, when I was living in the midst of incest, God gave me a word.  I was 6 years old and suicidal.  My mom couldn't stand my depression so she sent me outside to color in a coloring book on the front steps of our house.

  I was sitting on the step and crying my heart out.  I tried to color but all I wanted to do was die.  

  I didn't remember what came next until years later.  

  God saw my broken heart and how powerless I was to change my situation--to be safe!  He knew what I was going through but He also saw my future as a wife, mother, and grandmother.

  He came close to me and whispered in my ear.  "When you grow up, you're going to marry a man named Robert!"

  It was what I needed.  I needed to know that there was going to be an end to all of the rapes and beatings.  All the times my brothers tried to kill me to try to do away with their guilt, I guess.  God knew that I would somehow survive my childhood and find love.  

  Guess what.  HE WAS RIGHT!!  God knew that I needed to see past my present circumstances to a better life with the man I love.  It was just a few words but it made all the difference to my little wounded self!

  I have no idea what you are going through in your life right now but God knows.  He has a wonderful life planned for you!!  You just need to press through the darkness until you see His loving face shining down on you.  He is there.  Just start talking to Him and then listen to what He says.  I am positive that He loves you and has a wonderful life planned for you.  Just listen to Him!

I Hear His Whisper...

Take me at my word.

The power of my living Word is at work in the world around you. Your life cannot escape the faithfulness of my promises. You are not on the outside of my purposes, beloved. Let your heart take hope as you trust in my unending mercy that completely covers you. My powerful presence wraps around you and sustains you in every season. I will never abandon you or take my presence from you.

 

Just as flowers break through the ground after spring rains, so will your hope spring up as my living waters of redeeming grace refresh you. My Word is my covenant, and it cannot be broken. Trust that what I have spoken, I will accomplish. I will not fail you, and I won’t throw my hands into the air and give up. My relentless love always pursues my people. Nothing can talk me out of my marvelous mercy. I am the great I AM. All power and authority is mine. I am Creator, and I am Sustainer. Hide yourself in me today, for I am your very present help and the lifter of your head.

The Passion Translation

 

The earth and sky will wear out and fade away before one word I speak loses its power or fails to accomplish its purpose.
