What is Truth?

“The Lord is righteous in all His ways
 And kind in all His deeds.
The Lord is near to all who call upon Him,
To all who call upon Him in truth.
He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him;
He will also hear their cry and will save them.
The Lord keeps all who love Him…”
Psalm 145:17-20a

Do you know the character of God?  Or do you let your circumstances dictate who God is?  It is easy to let our situations tell us that God is not listening, or that He doesn’t care.  But according to the Bible and the Holy Spirit within you, you know that He is good.  Our garbage comes from living in Satan’s garbage pit – not from God.  So who are you going to listen to? 

 

 God “…is righteous in all His ways and kind in all His deeds.”  All that He requires is that we call upon Him.  He promises to be near.  But there is a condition here:  we must call to Him in truth.  That is first through Truth – Jesus Christ.  Then in truth – the Word of God.  When we align ourselves with Jesus and the Word then we can call upon God and He will hear us. 

Are you living in truth?  Are you walking with Jesus and believing His word?  No Truth – No God.  Know Truth – Know God!

First comes truth followed by fear.  When we know God, we will stand in awe and amazement at His holiness and Greatness.  We will tremble at His purity and love.  This is the fear of the Lord.  This fear should prompt us to worship and to call upon God.  He will do His part and “keep all who love Him.” 

James 4:7 says that if you “…Draw near to God…He will draw near to you.”  Don’t be so busy that you have no time for God.  Grow in the disciplines of study, meditation, prayer, and worship.
