Psalm 12:6 And the words of the Lord are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold refined seven times.

God’s Word should be our standard – the thing we hold up before us and take into battle. It is God’s Word so is the truth!

We need to base our lives on truths and keeping His Word at the centre of our lives should be our daily aim.

God’s Word has not been changed for thousands of years, unlike many of our own laws and rules – keep it as your battle standard today and move forward with it.

Proverbs 8:8 All the words of my mouth are just; none of them is crooked or perverse.

How many times can we say this about our own words? I know I do break this on regular occasions still!

We are human and we do stretch the truth or lie; but that is not what we should be doing. We should be aiming to keep the words which come out of our mouths as the truth!

Jesus set a great example and we should be following that; not just wherever we can, but always. Always try and give the truth out!

Psalm 19:8 The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes.

What happens when we break the law of the land? We are probably going to get a visit from the local authorities or police in order to sort things out!

When we go against God’s law, who should we expect a visit from? I personally would not like to get a visit from God or even an angel if I know I am doing something against God!

The law is not there to scare us into doing right, but as guidelines to show us what is right and what is wrong – we have to make the positive choice to choose right!

Ephesians 6:1 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

These words given to the Ephesians are a reminder of the commandments given through Moses to all people. But can also be seen as a slight clarification.

We should not blindly obey our parents just because they are our parents; if they are telling us to go against Christ and His teachings, then we should be following Christ instead!

When our parents or guardians are trying to teach us or show us Christ, then we need to stop and listen – because this is right in Christ’s eyes.
