Proverbs 25:18 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God Says …

“A man who bears false witness against his neighbor Is like a club, a sword, and a sharp arrow.” (Proverbs 25:18 NKJV)

Gossip, defamation and slander are what this passage warns. It smashes like a club. Like a sword, it cuts right through the heart. Flying from afar, zooming through fiber optics in the web in this hi-tech age, like an arrow it pierces into the soul. Yes, lying lips are destructive. It kills dreams and hopes.

Hence, this passage serves as caution for us to walk in the path of honesty and truth, guided by the Spirit of the Lord and by the counsel of His Words. In Christ Jesus, having Lordship in our life by His grace through faith in Him, we have His promise: “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.” (John 16:12-15 ESV)

And I say, AMEN!

(When God says... I say, AMEN! is a provocative reflection of the Lord's holy Word. It intends to challenge every seeker of truth to dig deep into the core of the Word of Life to point every being to Christ Jesus - the author and finisher of our faith, and to draw revelations for change, for nourishment and for strength of every soul.)
