God’s Word Is Truth

"For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar ..." (Romans 3:3-4).

Proverbs 13:13 says, "Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed ...", shall be destroyed because he has rejected TRUTH.

TRUTH IS THE STABILIZING FORCE OF LIFE.

The Word of God is TRUTH. Jesus said, "... If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed: And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:31-32). Jesus also said in John 6:63, "... the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." Jesus spoke Spirit words and they became stabilizing forces of life. Jesus spoke only that which He heard the Father say. He said in John 5:30, "I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me."

Jesus spoke God's Word continually. He was established in His Father’s Word. He overcame the world, the flesh and the devil by the spoken Word. "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world" (John 16:33). Matthew the 4th chapter and the 4th, 7th and 10th verses tell us that the only thing that Jesus used against the devil was the SPOKEN WORD. He spoke the written Word. IT IS WRITTEN. Oh, thank God it is still WRITTEN today. However, in book form, the Word has no power until read or spoken by someone.

In Luke's Gospel, the 6th chapter, beginning with verse 46, "And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?" Verse 47, "Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like." Now Jesus is about to tell you how important it is to practice the Word, or to be a performer of the Word. Verse 48, "He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock."

Notice, this man dug deep and started building his foundation on something that was already established and was unshakable. THAT IS THE WORD OF GOD. His life was based upon God's Word.

Although they beat upon him, the flood and stream could not shake him.

Circumstances won't shake a man who believes the Word. Psalm 112:7 tells us, "He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord."

However, Luke chapter 6, verse 49 says, "But be that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house
