Building on a firm foundation…

1:20 Galatians “I declare before God that what I am writing to you is not a lie.” (NLT)

Paul is trying to show the Galatians that what He preached to them came from His encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus. He was chosen by God to preach and to teach and to reach the Gentiles. He could not have known these great truths about Jesus unless He had received insights from Christ Himself. That is why Paul knows that he is speaking what is true… it came from knowing Jesus. We build our lives on that same truth. Speak the truth in love each day… let others know that Jesus loves them!

You can provide this verse to all of your family, friends, and neighbors by copying this blog or the link to this page and sending it on to them. Ask if how they test a statement to know if it is true or not. Ask what source they go to in order to seek the truth. Tell them about the Good News that is available to all of us. Let them know that the Bible is a great source of truth for life… and life eternal. Always Take Time For God’s Word(c) at 1:20 am or pm or as you see that someone is telling a lie, think of this verse. This may be a verse card that is worth printing out and posting on a bulletin board or taping to a mirror. It is direct. It is basic. It is true. We speak the Gospel truth when we tell others about what Jesus has done for them. It gives us courage and conviction to know that what we say has great value… lasting value… everlasting value to those who believe in Him.

Our prayers extend to all of those impacted by the many extensive fires in California and storms or destruction in other parts of the country. It must be devastating to return to find that ALL of your possessions and your home are gone. Whole towns are destroyed. It requires great courage and perseverance to want to rebuild. Support them. Help them where you can. They need all the help they can get. Be a blessing to them. Pass it on by sharing the true Word of God and the message of hope and of love through Christ.
