Be Convinced That God's "Word Is the Truth" -CONTINUE TRUSTING GOD'S WORD OF TRUTH

 As this world goes from bad to worse, our confidence in the truth will be put to the test.  People may try to sow doubts in our mind-doubts about the truthfulness of the Bible or about whether Jehovah has appointed a channel for guiding his worshippers today. But if we are convinced that Jehovah's Word is always true, we will be able to resist such attacks on our faith.  We will be "resolved to obey [Jehovah's]regulations at all times, down to the last." (Psalm 119:112)  We will  "not be ashamed " to tell others about the truth and to encourage them to live in harmony with it.  (Psalm 119:46)  And we will be able to endure the most difficult situations, including persecution,  "with patience and joy." - COLOSSIANS 1:11; Psalm 119:143, 157.

How thankful we are that Jehovah has revealed the truth to us!  That truth stabilizes us, giving us a definite purpose and clear direction in an increasingly confused and chaotic world.  It provides us with hope for a better future under the rulership of God's Kingdom.  May our year text for 2023 help us to stand firm in our conviction that all of God's Word -the very essence of it-is truth! - Psalm119:160.
