Healing from the Lies

Rescue me, O Lord, from liars and from all deceitful people... Psalm 120:2

it has taken a great deal of time for me to reach this level of peace in my life.  when someone you care for lies to you it can be heartbreaking, but when they repeatedly lie with no purpose other than selfish gain, the level of betrayal and pain can be unbearable and seemingly unforgivable.  it has been ONLY through the grace of God that i have found peace in 2 things... 1st... i prayed to God and i asked that the truth be revealed, so who am i to now complain??? i wanted to know the truth.... i did not know the truth would be so painful, but now that its out, how can i not be thankful to God for answering my prayer and revealing the truth that I ASKED FOR....and 2nd...God has my back... after learning the truth, vengeance, envy and retaliation were my focus, but it is through my faith in God that i have come to understand, that God has it!... Exodus 14:14 says, The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.  after reading this simple verse,  i realized my wounds would be healed, my battle would be won and i don't have to do anything except trust God to fight for me.  i have not lost and i am triumphant over my enemy! PRAISE GOD!

if you are battling with issues associated with lies, you too can let go and let God!

remember:

beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, i will repay, says the Lord." Romans 12:19

next time we will talk about forgiveness, but til then remember:

and i will forgive their wrongdoings, and i will never again remember their sins. Hebrews 8:12
