BUY THE TRUTH

Proverbs 23:23
Buy the Truth and sell it not; also wisdom,
Instruction and understanding.

I thought today's verse was very odd -what does it mean to buy the truth? I prayed about this and all I feel lead to say is that buying the truth must mean that we accept it - and take ownership of it - Jesus said He was the Way - the Truth and the Life -so He is truth - we must place our lives in HIS mighty hands - since HE is truth - whatever He says is true - HE cannot lie - the verse also says to gain understanding and instruction - these go hand in hand - without wisdom there can be no understanding - with understanding comes the truth - for the enemy of our souls is the father of confusion - God will never make us confused - He is always clear with us - He is mighty and lifted up - He alone has the wisdom we need - HE alone is the truth that we need in our lives - and HE allow has saved us for such a time as this! Buy the truth - and don't sell it - but we should be willing to give it away to others so they too will have God's truth in their lives and hearts - We must be willing to go where GOD calls us to go - sometimes this means to stay put - other times it means to pull up the roots of our lives and go - following JESUS all the way -
May the truth of JESUS fill your heart with praise today - may you know HIS wisdom and HIS grace today - and if you see someone who needs direction -tell them to follow JESUS - HE is the only way - and that's the truth!

BUILDING MOMENT: WHEN THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD GETS INTO OUR HEART - THINGS CHANGE!

Because we have CHRIST - we have the truth!
