Standing On Solid Ground

The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field: The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the Lord bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. Isaiah 40:6-8

Do not be afraid of being maligned, be afraid only of building on a false premise on quick sand for it shall not stand.

We have great confidence in knowing that God's Word does indeed stand and is enduring it does not change with the passing of time and will not be altered by man. Before I was saved my life was built on the false premise of man and his philosophies that were drawn from the well of godlessness. The natural man being in Adam and not in Christ has tainted deductions when it comes to truth (see 1 Corinthians 2:14). That described me as the lost man that I was. Praise God that I am saved and can know and learn truth.  I would rather be maligned while standing on the solid, enduring ground of God's Word than to be sunk in quick sand with those who choose to deny and deride the Word of the Living God.

Don't be afraid to stand for the Word of God. The stand you take today will be a stepping stone for someone tomorrow and a testimony to those who stand in front of you in the here and now. The stand you take will make a difference in the lives of the saints as well as those who aren't saved. We are drawing close to the time of the year when we celebrate the things we are thankful and grateful for. It gives us a wonderful opportunity to share the love of God by sharing the Word of God.
