IMPACTFUL LIES
By; Peter Oluwatomiwa Timothy
Peter Timothy Ministries words to ourselves; family, parents, children, citizen, leadership and the government of today 🙌:
- Impactful lies are deceptions that have significant effects or consequences on individuals, relationships, or situations. They can cause harm, damage trust, or lead to major changes, like the lies in David’s story with Uriah.
- Abraham and Isaac (Genesis 20): Abraham lied about Sarah being his sister, putting her in a tricky situation. Big lesson on honesty, even when fear kicks in.
- Jacob and Esau (Genesis 27): Jacob lied to get Isaac’s blessing, causing major family drama. Shows how lies can hurt relationships.
- David and Uriah (2 Samuel 11-12): David lied about Uriah, leading to serious consequences. Highlights the weight of dishonesty in leadership.
- Jacob lied to Isaac, pretending to be Esau, to get the blessing meant for the firstborn. It led to major family drama and hurt.
- Lies can be a big deal, especially when it comes to trust and relationships. In the Bible, lies often lead to messy situations, like with Jacob and Esau.
SARAH SUBTITLED GOD
- That’s a tough spot. In the Bible, there’s the story of Abraham and Sarah. Sarah laughed and denied it when God said she’d have a son. Abraham didn’t exactly correct her.
HUSBAND AND WIFE DECEITFUL
- Big trust issue there. Like the story of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5, they lied to each other and faced serious consequences.
- Acts 5:3-4 says, Then Peter said, Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied. You have not lied to men but to God.
CHILD DECEITFUL THROUGH HIS MOTHER TO HIS FATHER
Like the story of Jacob and Isaac . Jacob lied to his dad to get the blessing, and it caused major family drama.
- Proverbs 19:9 says, A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will perish.
LEADERSHIP DECEITFUL
- Proverbs 19:9 says, A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will perish.
CITIZEN DECEITFUL
- Like Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5, they lied to the church leaders and God about their donation. It didn’t end well.
GOVERNMENT AND CITIZENS LIES
- In the Bible, truth and honesty are key themes. Like Proverbs 12:22, Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who act faithfully are his delight.
PRAYER 🙏 :
Lord, help us value honesty and truth in our words and actions. Guide us to build trust and integrity in our relationships with you God, and with the family, individual, business and the government. Amen.
