How to Camp on God’s Truth

“I can’t believe she said that about me!” I cried in exasperation to my husband. After talking about the situation with Jonathan, once again, I needed to turn to God’s truth.

Have you ever received a text or email from someone who accused you of something you haven’t done? Or maybe someone attacked your character. This has happened to me a couple of times these last several weeks.

It is in these moments, that we need to make a decision. Do we listen to the lies of the enemy trying to tear us down or do we listen to and camp on God’s truth? I know the right answer to this but it is not always easy especially when you feel “beat up” by someone’s words. But, we must fight back with the truth of God’s Word. We must camp on His truth.

In order to do that, we need to read the Bible. So, this past week, I dug into God’s word and mediated on His truth. I read verses about His character and His love for me. I reviewed verses about His faithfulness and protection. God reminded me to come to Him for rest. It was a sweet time to soak in God’s presence and truth. Below are a few of the verses I meditated on.

Deuteronomy 31:6

“So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the Lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”

Isaiah 26:3

“You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!”

James 5:13

"Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises."

Lamentations 3:22-23

"The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."

Philippians 4:8

“And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.”

God’s truth is always before me

God’s word is amazing, isn’t it? I am blown away by all the nuggets of wisdom and encouragement throughout the Bible. One of my goals each day is to keep God’s Word always before me. To keep it at the forefront of my mind and hidden in my heart. (Psalm 119:11)

One of the ways I do that is by using Scripture verse lock screens and desktop wallpapers. As I work on my computer or look at my phone throughout the day, I have God’s truth in front of me. I created some lock screens and desktop wallpapers using the Scripture verses I shared above. I would love to share these with you. My heart is to encourage you to keep your thoughts fixed on God.

“The law of the Lord is perfect reviving the soul…the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart." Psalm 19:7-8
