One of the deepest relationship struggles is forgiving someone who has lied to you. Have you noticed?<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The truth is that it is deeply offensive for someone to lie to you or call you a liar. As chaotic as the British parliament can be, one thing they must not do is;- a British parliamentarian must never call another one a liar. If they do, they will be ejected from the house and that is the end of their career. Calling someone a liar is deeply offensive and as a Christian, you should not have that testimony.<\/p>\n<p>When the people that do life with you are asked about you, they should not describe you as a good person but a perpetual liar. When your children are asked about you, let them not say our mother loves us but she tells a lot of lies. A child once said, \u201cDaddy is a great father but he is always lying to our mother and making her cry\u201d. Your children are not fools. They are watching and they are telling your stories everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>It is a big deal for you not to be branded a liar because it is the devil that is a liar. In fact, the Bible says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/JHN.8.44\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">[please read John 8:<sup>44<\/sup><\/a>] that the native language of the devil is lies. The devil is incapable of telling the truth. If your spouse cannot believe you and thinks you are a liar, then something is wrong with that. And I pray that will change today, in Jesus Name.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Titus.1.2&amp;version=VOICE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Titus 1: <strong><sup>2\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>[Voice]<\/a> \u201c<em>We rest in this hope we\u2019ve been given<\/em><em>\u2026 And our God\u00a0is no liar;\u00a0He\u00a0is not even capable of uttering lies<\/em>.\u201d God cannot lie. It is impossible for God to lie and that is where our confidence lies.<\/p>\n<p>In the ninth commandment, God <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ff_4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-9543\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ff_4-300x37.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"259\" height=\"32\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ff_4-300x37.png 300w, https:\/\/gfhlive.tv\/freshfire\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/ff_4.png 767w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 259px) 100vw, 259px\" \/><\/a>speaks strictly about perjury.
