All tagged lie
This morning we are contemplating the fact that God means what He says and that includes His Word regarding prayer. Scripture tells us as much. First and foremost to understanding this is the promise that God can't lie. But, how about us? We can, and we do lie, so how is it that we are able to come to the Lord in prayer? How is it that we can possibly be worthy of entering into His presence? It is by His perfect Word, and the promise He gives us in Jesus our redeemer.
Many who would otherwise come to know the Lord are made by Satan to believe a lie; they are convinced that their sins are too great to be forgiven. Then, in the clutches of that falsehood they hide from God, and refuse the mercy and grace He offers them through Jesus Christ. They may have lived a life of ever increasing sin, but that can all be undone in a moment’s encounter with Jesus... a single occurrence of faith... the instant when we realize, and trust in the fact, that the increase of God’s grace knows no bounds, and conquers all sin.
