Bible Verse of The Day – 5-18-22

Matthew 2:7-8 (NKJV) 7 Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared. 8 And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found Him, bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also.”

Herod hoped to deceive the wise men, so he could locate the Christ child and kill Him.

Isn’t it just like the devil to make himself seem to have a righteous purpose behind one of his evil schemes?

And isn’t it just like God to expose the enemy’s evil plans?

People of God, we live in a world where good and evil do battle constantly. And evil masquerades as good, hoping to trick those who are unaware.

We see pieces of it played out right in front of our eyes. But then there is a lot more that we don’t witness in the natural, because it’s carried out in the spiritual realm.

This is why it’s so critically important that we learn to discern absolutely everything that we encounter.

Truth and lies can look so much alike sometimes. And many times, it’s hard to know who to trust when it comes to getting trustworthy counsel and understanding.

Again, this is why it’s so critically important that we learn to discern absolutely everything that we encounter.

So, how do we learn to discern the things we see and hear? How do we know truth from lies? How do we know the difference between honesty and deception?

We immerse ourselves in the word of God. And we let the Holy Spirit teach us how to separate truth from lies; deception from the genuine article.

There is only one place where we can go for this; the word of God.

His word will show us the light in the midst of darkness, even when others can’t see it.

He is trustworthy and true, from start to finish.

He never abandons us and never leaves us without knowledge and understanding.

All we need to do is to desire to know the truth, and then diligently seek it out.

He will be faithful to show us.
