Dear Grands,

1 Kings 17:24, “Then the woman said to Elijah, ‘Now I know that you are a man of God, and that the word of the LORD in your mouth is truth.’”

Psalm 119:160, “The sum of Thy Word is truth, and every one of Thy righteous ordinances is everlasting.”

Isaiah 39:8, “Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, ‘The Word of the LORD which you have spoken is good.’ For he thought, ‘For there will be peace and truth in my days.'”

John 17:17, “’Sanctify them in the truth; Thy Word is truth.’”

Four times the Bible says, “Thy Word is truth.” In the first instance, the prophet Elijah had raised a woman’s son from the dead. Her belief became real when her son was brought back to life; so she said, “Now I know that you are a man of God…”

In the second instance, and with years of spiritual observation behind him, David says that the Word of the LORD is truth; further, that it is everlasting.

In the third instance, King Hezekiah had a motivation for thinking that the “Word of the LORD” would produce peace and truth in the days of his life.

But, the Apostle John summarized it all with the words, “Thy Word is truth.”

So much of the value of truth has vanished from our world today. Truth seems to elude so many. It is difficult (sometimes, impossible) to discern where truth is in the thinking of those who claim to possess it. It takes little to no time to ascertain the lack of truth in the preaching of some who proclaim to possess and produce all truth.

Still, Jesus says, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.” Do you always tell the truth? Be honest with yourself. Jesus alone is truth and life; and it is His truth alone that guarantees to set you free!

Heartily yours in Christ Jesus,
