Psalm 120:2
Save me O’ LORD from lying lips,
And from deceitful tongues.
He has answered this prayer.
The question is…….
Have I taken hold of His Salvation.
The lying lips……
The deceitful tongue…….
The voices I hear most often are those inside me……
That are not me.
“You’re such a pathetic little boy”
“You will never have what you really want”
“You had better not try that- People will laugh at you”
“Be careful- You can’t let them see you fail”
“You’re just a hopeless sinner”
“God doesn’t really care about you”
Guys……..These are just the tip of the Ice burg.
There is only one way to answer the lies…….
Speak Truth.
Truth……My Father has given me a
Spirit of Power.

evil……

Who has prepared a place for me in His Kingdom……
Who will make all things New and Right and Good…….
Christ Himself is ………
Truth.
Truth or Lies……. What will you listen to?
What will you live from?
He has saved us from the lies…….
Now go and Live in the Power of…..
Truth!
