Every year at Impartation church services amazing truths of God are revealed by incredibly gifted preachers to the people who attend the services at Victory Family Church. The teachers this year, Doug Jones and Keith Moore, spoke presenting a great deal of deeper biblical truths.
I went to the meetings expecting with the desire to learn many new things. Coming out of the week I am realizing how greatly God can use a few simple days to impact the rest of the days and years to come. I have learned dozens of truths of God from His will, His healing, and even about His mercy. One thing that has stuck out in my head is the topic of lying.
I am still unsure how I can pick one point from the whole week, but what I have learned in the area of lying is like totally awesome! So here it is, in life, there is no choice but to tell the truth. Wow. I know! The idea is that simple. Keith Moore asked the audience to imagine the world without lies. Well, let’s think of my friend Suzy who no longer goes out under-age drinking because when she arrives home she can not lie to her parents about what she has been doing.
To lie is to state something that one knows to be false; lies are a form of deception (of the devil). While Jesus is the way the TRUTH and the life, his father God HATES lies. Remember there is no such thing as a little white lie! You are deceiving someone even if you consider it to be in a “little” form. Love the truth more than anything else!
If you lie, then simply ask for forgiveness. We are all imperfect humans. Confess the phrase “I WILL NOT LIE.” Believe me on this one I am telling the truth better already!!!
