Romans 3:3-4 – What if some were unfaithful? Will their unfaithfulness nullify God’s faithfulness? 4 Not at all! Let God be true, and every human being a liar. As it is written: “So that you may be proved right when you speak and prevail when you judge.”
If a man, who seemed to have lots of facts and good intellect, challenged parts of the Word of God, would that make me disbelieve? No? No matter the person or amount of persons that challenge what God has said I will not be persuaded to doubt the Word of God. Against overwhelming force and seemingly overwhelming reason I stand strong with God and His Word.
Some thirty plus years ago I went through a powerful spiritual attack. The goal of the attack was to put doubt and confusion in me concerning God and His Word. The attack became so real and so powerful I had to pull off the freeway as the attack became overwhelming. Oh, I was fighting in the Spirit, proclaiming victory and assurance in the name of the Lord, but the waves of the attack persisted. Finally I cried out a confession to the Lord from Romans 3:4 “Let God be true and every man a liar!” I was stating to God that though all the demons and every person come against my faith in Him, I would not relent. I trust the Lord above all others. Not sometimes, but always and forever. After crying out this verse the attack stopped. The attacking horde was gone and the peace of the Lord surrounded me. The attack was horrible but the rescue infinitely sweeter. Looking back I thank God for the ordeal because He strengthened my knowledge of Him and thereby my trust in Him. The gift from the ordeal is with me still, and forever.
Recently I went through another trial. My physical and spiritual life were attacked. The enemy again came after my faith. But the Lord had strengthened my knowledge of Him and my faith in Him. As I felt my physical life was at an end, my faith never wavered. I knew the Lord was with me and if I should die I would go to be with Him. I was not afraid, but rather just awaiting the will of God. I thank God for all the trials I have been through as they all contributed to my faith staying strong through this one. The Lord Himself, by His Spirit and His Word, kept me strong. Praise the Lord! As I was thinking I was about to die Philippians 1:21-22 comforted me. Live or die, to me, everything is about and for Jesus. Live or die, I only want to be pleasing to the Lord. I thought I might physically die, but knew I would never be separated from Jesus. Again the Lord gave me a sweet rescue. Praise God!
No matter the assault, whatever demon or non-believer may say “May God be true and every man a liar!” Trust God no matter what. Trust God and trust His Word. He is good and He loves us. Praise Jesus!
