"I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet… all Thy commandments are faithful" (Psalm 119:83,86). "Treasures of wickedness profit nothing: but righteousness delivereth from death" (Proverbs 10:2). "Woe to them that… look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD!" (Isaiah 31:1). "For what if some did not believe? Shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar… that He might be Just, and the Justifier of him which believeth in Jesus" (Romans 3:3,4,26).
How clear are the
words Jesus spoke
With truth that
is making us free,
In contrast to
all of the smoke
Of falsehood
today that we see.
Though people
put faith in their treasures
And try not to
think of the grave,
Obscuring their
vision with pleasures,
These things neither
profit nor save.
The smoke does
not change what is there,
It simply is
masking the danger.
If souls will
not seek God in prayer,
They'll stand
before Him as a stranger!
O Lord, it is
cloudy, yet clear,
As You are
unmasking the liar.
We're pleading
with all who will hear
To trust You as
their Justifier!
