For many bore false witness against Him, but their testimonies did not agree. Mark 14.56

Man will find whatever he looks for in the world, even false witnesses. But there is nothing to fear; before the truth, no error will stand. Whoever serves God has the promise that if he cries out – he will be heard. The enemy cannot use lies to hinder us. Now, we must not go to court to incriminate anyone, but rather – carry out the orders of the Most High, for everything is resolved by the prayer of faith made with total sincerity.

Some people are predisposed to deceive, purely for the pleasure of participating in a trial; others do it for other interests. But none of them will be able to sustain their invention, if the accused party owns the right and acts within the Word. God is the Judge, and He does not lean to one side because someone is poor or rich, ugly or handsome, timid in speech or eloquent. The Father honors those who honor Him (1 Samuel 2.30) and love the Truth.

We don’t have to worry about what they say about us. Now, each one is directed by the spirit that dominates him. Those who are guided by the Spirit of God speak the words of truth, while those commanded by Hell promote their error out of pure evil. The righteous one is not without God’s assistance in court, since the truth speaks for itself, and Jesus is the Truth (John 14.6). Understand: Whoever does not love the Lord will never get it right in life, even if he lives in opulence.

Because he knows that the time of his work is ending, the devil will try to do his work in a hurry in these last day: Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time (Revelation 12.12). However, members of the Body of Christ don´t need to worry about him; after all, they have been given power over evil (Luke 10.19).

Many give in to the enemy and hinder everything good that is done on Earth, but since the Lord has foreknowledge, He uses us to cancel the hellish work until the end of our days. Never be afraid of anyone who stands against the Word, for he will soon fall. Jesus’ promise not to forsake us (Matthew 28.20) will prevail over the wiles of the enemy. Hallelujah!

If they speak ill of you, don’t let their falsehoods be used to destroy you. The Truth will take care of you; just don’t have sin in your heart. What interests the evil one most is your slanderous reaction. At all times, remember that your Advocate, Jesus, has never lost a case. The One who makes your defense honors his determinations and has called you to be part of the eternal work accomplished on the cross.

There is a crown waiting for those who do not stray (Revelation 2.10), who suffer for the love of God, without bending before the threats of the king of darkness. With Christ, you will always succeed, but not without Him. Following the example of the apostle Paul, fight the good fight, finish the race, and keep the faith (2 Timothy 4.7). Jesus will give you victory in every battle. Go to the end (Deuteronomy 12:13)!

In Christ, with love,
