"I am become like a bottle in the smoke, yet do I not forget Thy statutes.... All Thy commandments are faithful" (Psalm 119:83,86). "Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he" (Proverbs 29:18). "Is the Spirit of the LORD straitened? Are these His doings? Do not My words do good to him that walketh uprightly?" (Micah 2:7). "The manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal" (1 Corinthians 12:7).
Deception, like a blinding smoke,
Is everywhere we look.
It questions whether our God spoke,
And casts doubt on His Book.
We should not be at all surprised
That Satan has employed
These subtle strategies devised,
That souls may be destroyed.
How happy is the one who knows,
In spite of all derision,
That God is faithful and bestows
His validated vision.
His Holy Spirit manifests
The truth that God foretold,
And thus our faith securely rests
On evidence we hold.
O Lord, we thank You for the way
You show us what is true,
As we are Spirit-led each day
With vision fixed on You!
