Proverbs 14:25
A true witness delivereth souls:
but a deceitful witness speaketh lies.
Our account of any given situation
must be as accurate as possible. We must
be careful when repeating a matter or giving details that we don’t slant the
facts to deceive. This is not just
exaggeration or leaving something out.
The Lord calls it lying. Lying is
sin and sin brings about death. We must
be true witnesses that will be used to deliver souls. There are so many lies out there that so many
that people have believed. People are
damaged and their souls are held captive by lies they have believed. When we speak God’s truth and when we are
gentle with words that hold accuracy, we will be used by the Lord to deliver
people’s personalities from destructive deceptions. The only way to be this true witness is to be
women who graze in the truth of God’s Word.
When we stay in His Word and have His Word dwell in us, we will be
sources of truth and deliverance for those we love. Our children will hear the truth in the face
of the myriad of lies their hormones, media and ungodly counsel is telling
them. They will be rescued and delivered
from false roads that end in destruction and despair. Our husbands will be delivered from the lie
that success is defined by his position and possessions and they will walk with
their heads up knowing they are loved and respected for their character and
integrity. Our friends will be safe in a
friendship that holds no surprises and is steeped in truth and godly counsel. We will deliver our own souls from inner
voices seeking to pull us into deceptive paths of thinking by speaking the
truth in our hearts. Let us stay close
to God’s heart and word in defining truth so that we will be true witnesses
delivering souls that surround us.
