Hey forever God girl, I'm your host is and welcome
or welcome back to the forever God girl podcast
in today's episode We will talk all about line.
Okay. Hold up. Hold up though I don't lie that
much. I mean, I only lie to get myself out of
trouble or, you know, when I have to. I think
we've all said this to ourselves at least once
in our lives to make ourselves less convicted
about lying. But I'm gonna tell you the truth.
Lying is lying. White lies are still lies. And
in Proverbs chapter 12 verse 22, amplified version,
it says, lying lips are extremely disgusting
to the Lord. but those who deal faithfully are
his delight. And in the NLT version it says the
Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those
who tell the truth. Wow, that's really blunt.
Sometimes we need a John the Baptist kind of
preaching style. Hold on though, this scripture
is talking about when you tell big lies, right?
Like, lies that get people in trouble. Nope.
Because telling even a little lie is still a
lie. And when we lie over small things, we get
a lot of practice on how to lie for the big things.
And then before we even know it, it's gonna snowball.
Telling lies over little things to telling lies
over big things to telling lies when we don't
even have to lie. For example, is, did you brush
your teeth? Yes. When I know that's a lie. Now
that is a... not so dramatic example that I made
very dramatic but I promise you I do brush my
teeth that was when I was like seven years old
anyways you get the point which brings me to
the next scripture that I want to talk about
Proverbs chapter 12 verse 19 in the easy English
Bible which says true words continue to be true
forever but people quickly see that lies are
lies and why do they quickly see that lies are
lies well in Luke chapter 8 verse 17 in the Amplified
Bible Jesus says, for there is nothing hidden
that will not become evident, nor anything secret
that will not be known and come out into the
open. Yeah, so basically when we lie or deceive,
God will expose it, not to shame us, but so that
we will become unmotivated to lie and understand
why we shouldn't lie. Also, we shouldn't attempt
to lie to God because he is God and he is truth.
So obviously, we can't hide anything from him.
And because he is God and because he is truth,
we should walk in him and therefore we will be
walking in but when we walk outside of his will,
we are living in lies. And living a lie can look
like this. Oh, my truth is dot dot dot. Well,
sorry to burst your bubble. But it really isn't
truth unless it comes from God or from the facts
in his holy bible So the whole my truth thing
is really a lie And if you want to hear more
about what is truth the difference between relative
truth and factual truth There is a whole faith
to see message on that and you can listen to
that after you finish listening to this But let's
get back into this episode and let me read you
colossians chapter 3 verses 9 through 10 in the
erv version it says Don't lie to each other you
have taken off those old clothes in other words
that dirty laundry the person you want were and
the bad things you did then. Now you are wearing
a new life and that life is new every single
day. You are growing in your understanding of
the one who made you and you are becoming more
and more like him. Now as we get closer to Jesus
Christ, he will convict us about lying. Totally,
I mean I gotta stop lying before I can get closer
to Jesus. Um... Technically, it's a little different
than that because we stop lying and stop sinning
as we come closer to Jesus, not before we come
closer to Jesus because he is the one who holds
the power to change our hearts. Oh, I see. Well,
that takes the weight off my shoulders. Mm -hmm.
But basically, this verse is just telling us
that now that we've put on our new clothes, let's
not put on the old ones again. Let's give up
wearing lies for the truth. Let's give up the
dirty bag of laundry of lies for the clean laundry
of truth. Because when we do that, we are growing
in our understanding of the one who made us.
Not only are we his creation, but we're also
his children once we're saved. And we can become
more and more like him. Now it's time for our
special segment, movies and TV shows. Today I
am recommending Left Behind the Movie, made in
the year 2000, which was 25 years ago. This movie
is all about revelation, what will happen in
the end times. The airline pilot named Ray discovers
that dozens of the passengers on his flight have
disappeared suddenly. But their belongings and
clothes remain. When the plane lands, everyone
aboard learns that millions of people vanished
at once, leaving chaos worldwide. His wife and
son are among the missing, so he, his daughter,
and others who have been left behind must work
together to unravel the mystery. But here's the
catch. You can't trust anyone. especially the
ones who you thought you could. This is such
an intriguing movie which will have you at the
edge of your seat. And you'll be able to find
so many connections between the movie and the
book of revelations. This is a movie that I watched
just recently and it's amazing. But I do recommend
it to you if you're a bit older as some of the
peril and violence in the movie can be seen as
scary. But other than that, it's an amazing movie
and I would rate it a 10 out of 10. Can't wait
for you to watch it. That was such a great special
segment. But now it's time to talk about something
even more important and even more exciting, salvation.
Here's a word from Zye. So, if you have a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ, then this message
will help you. But, if you don't have a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ, I invite you
to give your heart to the Lord today. to receive
him into your heart. Go to Romans 10, 9 through
10. It says, If you confess with your mouth the
Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God
has raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For with the heart one believes unto righteousness,
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
If you said this prayer with sincerity, you are
saved and now have eternal life with Jesus. You
are saved from all your sins. present and future
sins you may commit. This truth is not a free
pass to sin anytime. Instead, Jesus gives you
power over all wrong choices and empowers you
to spread the gospel to others. You are saved
forever and your name is written in the book
of life. Did you just give your life to Jesus?
Because if you did, give yourself a pat on the
back. I am so godly proud of you. Thank you so
much for listening to this podcast episode. I
trust that it helped you and that you learned
something. And remember what it says in Psalm
120 verse 2, Visit us on our website at ForeverGodGirl
