Teach me how to live, O Lord.
Lead me along the right path,
for my enemies are waiting for me.
12 Do not let me fall into their hands.
For they accuse me of things I’ve never done;
with every breath they threaten me with violence. Psalm 27:11,12

I am working this chapter through the NLT
Oh OK…cool
It’s so crushing to be falsely accused that I’ve usually experienced shock and despair…after that, all I can do is go to the Lord about it; because He has promised to be our Vindicator, along with all the other great and faithful things He does for us. And after that, I used to wallow in depression–but now, I would “stand on His Word” (like you do), the Truth, and just keep reminding myself of how God views me righteous through the shed Blood of Christ. He knows me, He knows every situation–and it’s just easier now to let Him sort things out. We can’t control what other people believe about us, including lies–reputation is important, but we can’t just stop living our lives and obsessing about a bad situation we have no fault/guilt in.
That is so true Delyn. The opinion of the “crowd” is a carpricious thing. We cannot live by it at all because of all grounds to stand on it is the most changeable. That said God is our vindicator and will vindicate us when we are unjustly accused. It may take a while and this calls for patience.
Yes, it can take a long time–we may not see it in our earthly lifetime.
True story and we have to be OK with that. That is our work to do.
Yep, you’re right.
Amen, the Lord gave me this in a time of lies at my workplace: 1For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29, 11………and I understand I have a future and a hope in the Lord, even my enemys run always against me.
