Don’t let ordeals or hot potatoes encumber you of being led in all Truth!

• “The integrity of the upright shall guide them; but the crookedness of traitors shall destroy them.” (Pro 11:3).

When the predicaments arise, our lean is to put the Truth behind us (like Israel did):

• “Therefore Jehovah heard, and was made furious; so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel, *because they did not believe in God, and did not trust in His salvation* ;” (Psalms 78:21,22).

So, may the God of peace make us perfect in every good work to do His will, working in us that which is well pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ (Heb 13:20,21). Only thus we will be guided in ALL truth:

• “However, when He, the Spirit of Truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth. For He shall not speak of Himself, but whatever He hears, He shall speak. And He will announce to you things to come.” (Joh 16:13).

Partial truth doesn’t save inasmuch as, in Christ, there is no murkiness:

• “And this is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all.” (1Jn 1:5).
• “ *But whoever keeps His Word, truly in this one the love of God is perfected*. By this we know that we are in Him.” (1Jn 2:5)

Fortunately, the God of all grace, He will perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish us (1Pe 5:10) to the full assurance of hope (Hebrews 6:11) – if we keep on in His ways to the end (Matthew 24:13; Galatians 6:9).

So, let’s enjoy this wonderful day that Jesus provide for us (Psalms 118:24) being integritous without betray Jesus circumventing His truth when the things get harsh. It is the trials that will make complete His salvation in us and allow us to know His truth without distortion.

Moreover:

• “Now may the God of peace (who brought again our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant) make you perfect in every good work to do His will, working in you that which is well pleasing in His sight through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.” (Heb 13:20,21).
