Beloved, in continuance of our theme, “A God Who Cannot Lie” – Our God is so faithful and merciful unto us that we should not want Him to find a spot of wickedness in our lives. As children of God, we should want to keep everything in our lives clean and above board, and to be found walking before the Lord with a perfect heart. Remember, the scripture says, “Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart…” (Psalm 24:3-4). Our past should never meet us again, and we ought to say this with conviction, by the grace of God. Again, the Bible encourages this – “…let the weak say, I am strong” (Joel 3:10).
Precious Ones, since we serve “a God who cannot lie,” then when He inspires us from His Word, it should set our souls free from sin, and we should make sure that no transgressions accumulate to meet us before the Most High God. The inspired Word of God says that the Lord of Hosts “shall be for a sanctuary” (Isaiah 8:14). If God is our dwelling place, then we have enough power to live our lives to please Him.
Chosen Ones, we should hold to God’s unchangeable hand. If we know that God will never change and never lie to us, we should be determined not to lie to Him. Remember that “Jesus Christ [is] the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever” (Hebrews 13:8). Let us vow to stay close to His statutes and commandments.
I will write more on this subject next Sunday. Until then, know this,
I love you all SO very much.
In His Love,
Pastor William L. McCoy
