The Voice of Truth

I am doing a Bible Study this Summer by Jennifer Rothschild called, Me, Myself and Lies. It is teaching how we too often believe the lies from Satan, who is like a roaring lion seeking out those he can easily devour, over the Truth that Christ speaks. We listen, believe and clothe ourselves with those lies; hanging them in our "thought closets" to wear over and over.....
So with Jennifer's direction and God's loving guidance, I am doing a "Thought Closet" Makover!

This last week in our study books, we were told to combat the following lies, with God's Truth. God's Truth comes from His Word...there is not mistaking it, or wondering if it is true. Because He said it, I can believe it...I can stake my life on it....and I can clothe myself in His Truth!

"God doesn't listen to you!"

Psalms 145:18-19....
"The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.
He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them."

"You have no value or purpose!"

Isaiah 43:1-2....
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine."

"Your problem is unfixable!"

Jeremiah 32: 17....
"Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you."

"You are abandoned!"

Romans 8:31....
"What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?"

"You are a loser!"

Romans 8:37....
"In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."

"You've blown it, God can't accept you!"

Romans 8:38-39....
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

"Nobody cares about you!"

2 Corinthians 1:3-4....
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God."

"You have no willpower!"

2 Timothy 1:7....
"For God did not give us a spirit of weakness, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline."
