Let God be True

Romans 3:4 declares, let God be true.  This has made more sense to me of late, mainly because one of the main things we must learn to do is believe the authority of God and His word.  However why you and I can know that God is true, it really doesn't matter if we refuse to "LET" God be true in our lives.  The writer of Romans ask the question What if some did not believe?  Shall their unbelief make the faith of God of no effect?
I believe this is a question we are all faced with at some point in our life.  Are we going to let our friends, family or even ourselves decide what is true, or are we going to "LET" God be true in our life?  There is a lot of argument of late that wants to discredit God and His word.  Doubt seems to be around every corner; men walking out on their families; mothers abandoning their children; children leaving their values, all because they have began to believe a lie.  A lie that tells them their not good enough.  A lie that tells them they can't make it.
Christians are not exempt from this deception of doubt.  It seems there is a greater onslaught against our faith now than ever before.  We have a decision to make! Are we going to "LET" God be true or will we believe the lies of men?  To let God be true means to choose to believe the word of God in your life over every other word.  I reiterate "every other word!"  We must decide to believe God above all else. Letting God be true, means in every area of your life God's word takes pre-eminence.  It is the first source you seek.  You believe it when it doesn't seem to make sense.  You trust it, when it is not easy.  You hold on to it when everything else is letting go.  Your not looking for a sign to confirm it, your believing in His word.  You don't need doctors degrees, nor lawyers semantics you have settled in your heart that God's word is "TRUE!" and everything that is contrary to His word is a Lie!
I challenge everyone reading this to start today and "Let" God's word be true in your life.
