God’s Truth!
"Stand therefore, having
girded your waist with truth."
Ephesians 6: 14
In recent years, a new phrase entered
the cultural conversation: “My truth” or
“your truth” have, for many people,
replaced “the truth.”
Social media has made it possible for all to
speak his or her truth. This trend is from the
rise of the postmodern worldview that says
there is no truth. Instead, truth is in the eye
of the beholder; truth is whatever you say
it is.
Truth is like the rudder on a giant ship—that
which keeps the ship on track regardless
of
how high the waves or how strong the winds.
A life that is not based on “true truth” will be
tossed about by life’s circumstances like a
ship without a rudder.
Jesus prayed that God would sanctify
believers
with His truth, concluding, “Your word is truth”
(John 17:17). There is no “my truth” or “your
truth”; there is only God’s truth which is
found in His Word.
There is no better way to “gird up the
loins of your mind” (1 Peter 1:13) than
by meditating on the truth of Scripture.
"The Word of God is perfect;
it is precious and pure; it is
truth itself."
Martin Luther
