“A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.”
-Proverbs 19:5
We have all seen temptation at some point in our lives to tell a lie. You may recall some time in the past week that you actually have lied.
Many times we succeed, yet many times we fail.
God promises that for every lie you tell, you will not escape it. That little “white lie” is going to come back with some sort of repercussion. You cannot escape God’s promises and He will make sure of that.
So what’s the big secret? What is the best way to get out of a lie?
Don’t tell one.
I once heard a saying that went “If you never tell a lie, you never have to remember anything.” Tell the truth in everything you say, and you won’t have to keep up with every lie you tell.
Challenge: Today when you want to lie, just tell the truth. Don’t think, just do.
God will bless you for your faithfulness to His Word.
