Earlier this week I opened my mouth and fleshly frustration oozed out. Not a proud moment. The very minute that I clicked and announced that I was done, that this platform has no room for the truth, the alarm bells of the indwelling Holy Spirit began to ring. "What are you doing Gary?"
I was so disappointed and saddened over all the hate, the vulgarity, the division, the noise that I allowed the door to open for just a moment and guess who was waiting? The Lord. As I prayed and repented of my error He comforted me through scripture.
While searching for TRUTH, I found it right where it had always been. Discoverable in prayer throughout the Bible.
When Moses, out of frustration, nearly threw in the towel as he led the Israelites through the wilderness, his father-in-law Jethro recommended what we now find in 1Sa 12:24 "...fear the LORD and serve Him in TRUTH with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you. And this: Exo 18:21 .." you shall select out of all the people able men who fear God, men of TRUTH, those who hate dishonest gain; and you shall place these over them as leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties and of tens". Moses learned to share the load of the TRUTH!
All of God's redeemed have the responsibility to share the TRUTH of our maker with others. TRUTH is right in front of us all the time. PRAYER and Holy Scripture! Where is the TRUTH? Its right here!
Psa 25:5 Lead me in Your TRUTH and teach me, For You are the God of my salvation; For You I wait all the day.
Psa 25:10 All the paths of the LORD are loving kindness and TRUTH to those who keep His covenant and His testimonies.
Psa 51:6 Behold, You desire TRUTH in the innermost being, And in the hidden part You will make me know wisdom.
Psa 115:1 Not to us, O LORD, not to us, But to Your name give glory Because of Your loving kindness, because of Your TRUTH.
Joh 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and TRUTH.
All of the noise, we experience--that we allow to eat away at our peace is just noise. God sees all of it. Trust in Him, know that events are unfolding according to His plan. Be patient, wait on the Lord. This missive is in itself evidence that there is indeed TRUTH on this platform. The TRUTH is HIS!
2Pe 1:12 Therefore, I will always be ready to remind you of these things, even though you already know them, and have been established in the TRUTH which is present with you.
