Topic: THE ULTIMATE TRUTH
Text: Read: Psalm 25:1-7
Daily Bible Study: Gen. 23-24; Ps. 6

“Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day” (Ps. 25:5).

In the book of Psalm 25:1-7, King David made 12 requests to God; among them was, “lead me into thy truth”. Truth is objective, not subjective. Truth is absolute and not partial. Truth is not open to being redefined to make it more pleasant to new believers. Our job is not to make the Truth easier or more attractive. Our job is to love people by remaining faithful to the Truth; the Holy Spirit will do the rest.
One ultimate Truth that cannot be compromised is that Jesus Christ is our eternal hope. There is only one path to God and that is through Jesus Christ, God's Son, who died for us. Jesus Himself told us in the book of John 14:6, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” This Truth is unequivocal, unambiguous, and unavoidable.

If you contend for the faith by lovingly telling others the undiluted Truth they need, you will face criticism. Are you willing to endure in order to share the Truth with others in your workplace or neighborhood? Have you ever experienced rejection when you have tried to share the Truth with someone? In that case, Apostle Paul’s advice to the Philippians is relevant: “stand fast in one spirit” (Phil. 1:27). When it comes to advancing Christ’s purposes and defending His cause, Christians need each other and must stand together.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, please give me the ability to understand and stand by the Truth always. Give me discernment and wisdom to live by Your Truth in this secular world. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ – Amen.

Good morning Beloved Brethren, Date: SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2018 Topic: WALLS OF PROTECTION Text: Read: Proverbs 25:28 Daily Bible Study: Lev. 20-21; Matt. 28 “He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls” (Prov. 25:28). In Old Testament times, walls around a city were a symbol of strength and security. Without walls, a town would be left open to easy attack, not just from humans, but even from wild animals. When Prophet Nehemiah realized that the walls around the city of Jerusalem were in ruins, he wept and mourned certain days; fasted and prayed before the God of heaven (Neh. 1:4). As it is to a city, so it is to an individual; a person who has no self-control is like a city without walls. He or she is open to enemy attacks at any given moment. When we fail to exercise self-control, the spirits of lying, gossips, backbiting, hatred, tribalism, racism, jealousy, rage, frustration, bearing false witness, and more, can enter our...
