1 Thessalonians 5:21 “But test and prove ALL things until you can recognize what is GOOD; to that hold fast.” [AMP]
Don’t take chances with the many ‘voices’ in our world. In the course of our daily life we hear the voice of the media, opinions of other people, accusations and lies from the enemy, wrong thinking in our own head and in the midst of them all the truth from the Holy Spirit.
As you can see, with all this noise and opinion battling to enter our ears, it is absolutely necessary for us to test and prove ALL things. Notice God’s word says “…ALL things…” not just testing and proving ‘some’ things, but ALL things!
No doubt about it… as Christians it is our duty to test all things with the Word of God. Only as we test things with God’s Word can we start to recognize what is GOOD and what is not! The result? We then allow access to the good and resist the bad.
Best of all when we recognize something GOOD and have proven it GOOD we are to hold fast to it and not let it go! When we discover GOOD we have found a gem, a NUGGET OF GOLD and it becomes something we can live life with.
Now for the surprise! As we fill our lives with these proven nuggets, anything bad won’t have room to fit. Now, isn’t this the sort of life we want to live?
This is your moment… fill your life with Word of God proven nuggets and start enjoying a bountiful, blessed week!
