I Will Choose to Listen and Believe The Voice of Truth


Voice of Truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves

To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand

But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy, you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
The voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out my name
And he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"

But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them lookin' down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
The voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth


There are many times in my life that God had tested my faith through making me do unusual things. Unusual in the sense that I don't normally do it neither planned to do it. A lot of times I had stepped out of my comfort zone just to follow the will of God. Also during those times I had heard a lot of voices telling me that it is not the right thing to do and that I should not do it.


I know a lot of us had been tested through that way and I know it is not easy to surrender and let God take over our lives.


But God is the voice of truth and that He is the only one who knows completely about our life-our past, present and future. In addition, God loves us very much and He cares for us.

God knows everything and He knows what is harmful and can hurt our soul and because of His love for us surely He will never lead us to that path.


So that next time that you don't know what to do or if you just wanted to straighten up your life, listen to the voice of God and do what He is saying. Have faith in Him!

This song, well the lyrics...have gotten me through many times when the enemy was whispering words of fear and doubt. Jesus is the voice of truth, and my hands go up towards Him everytime I hear this song.
