“Led By God’s Truth”

 “Led By God’s Truth”

 

Lead me by Your truth and teach me, for You are the God who saves me.   Psalms 25:5

 

We are living in a world that has changed the TRUTH for LIES.  Many people seem to think that LIVING a LIE is EASIER than being TRUTHFUL.  So, they put themselves into the leadership of the DEVIL, who is the MASTER of DECEIT. And he makes LIVING A LIE, appear so MUCH BETTER, and EASIER, but he HIDES the DISASTROUS ending. 

Some are SO proficient at it, that they really don’t know what the TRUTH is.  And so, they CONTINUE to LIVE a LIE. And they LEAD others down the WRONG PATH. A PATH that can ONLY lead to a HORRENDOUS outcome, and to an ETERNAL TRAGEDY.    Hopefully, YOU are not going down this PATH.

King David is the Psalmist, and I detect a little bit of urgency.  In vv 1-3, David seems somewhat distraught, he says: “O LORD, I give my LIFE to YOU. I TRUST in You, MY GOD! Do not let me be DISGRACED, or let my enemies REJOICE in my DEFEAT.  No one who TRUSTS in You will ever be DISGRACED, but DISGRACE comes to those who try to DECEIVE others. 

In verse five David says: “LEAD ME by Your TRUTH and TEACH ME. All day long I PUT my HOPE in YOU.  He is IMPLORING God to LEAD him with His TRUTH, and to TEACH him about that TRUTH.  So, that he might NOT be guilty of DECEIVING others and end up DISGRACED. 

Like David, we NEED to SEEK God to LEAD US, by HIS truth.  And when we are SUBMISSIVE to His LEADERSHIP, we will be able to BE TAUGHT the TRUTH of GOD, and to LIVE our LIVES in HIS TRUTH, and NOT be GUILTY of DECEIVING others, and we will NOT be DISGRACED.

If you belong to GOD, HOPEFULLY, you are LIVING under the LEADERSHIP of His TRUTH, and you are being TAUGHT His TRUTH.  However, if you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you are NOT BEING LED by His TRUTH, but you are functioning under the LEADERSHIP of the Devil, and your DESTINY will be an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE once you are there, UNLESS, you ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER, in NEED of the SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, the ONLY SON of the LIVING GOD, who DIED to bring you an ETERNAL LIFE in HEAVEN with ALL its BLESSINGS.  You MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART that JESUS DIED for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST CONFESS your SINS to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY from your SINS and TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.   You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION and be LED BY HIS TRUTH!!  So, do this NOW, while you STILL can!!!  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t Be LEFT BEHIND!!!
