Tell The Truth, Shame The Devil!

It’s a wonderful day to be a child of God. What do you do when someone you trust has been dishonest with you? How does it make you feel? Do you end the friendship? Do you give them another chance? Do you act as if nothing is wrong? What do you do? How do you respond? So often in our lives we find ourselves on the receiving end of dishonesty. A person you trusted held back the truth from you. When you confronted them, more lies were given. It appeared as if it was lie, upon lie, upon lie. Have you been there? Are you there now?


Today, I have been commissioned to come and minister to you. My friend, Tell The Truth, Shame the devil! When we are dishonest with our brothers and sisters, we give glory to the enemy. God hates lies and he expects us to hate it as well. The Bible declares in John 8:44 - Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. Sometimes you find yourself in positions where telling the truth seems so difficult. Being dishonest is your first reaction. Be that as it may, Tell The Truth, Shame the devil!


My brother, my sister, you must understand who your Father is. He expects more out of you. The Bible declares in Proverbs 17:4 - A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue. Dishonesty never betters anyone. When a person tells a lie, he/she must continue to lie to cover the first one. The Bible declares in John 8:32 - And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. When you find yourself wavering between the two options, always Tell The Truth and bring Shame to the devil! Thought to Remember: If you hate being lied to, make sure you are not doing what you hate!

Scripture Reading for the Day: Revelation 21:8

May God Bless you at Your point of need!
