TRUTH IS IN YOUR SPIRIT (You Live The Life Of Truth)
Pastor Chris
TO THE BIBLE
John 8:32 “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
LET’S TALK
We were created by God’s Word, and His Word is truth; that means we were created by truth. This is why truth has an eternal effect on your spirit; it’s got an eternal impact of success, victory, prosperity, health in your life because truth is your source. That’s why falsity, deceit, deception, lies, and lying destroy the human spirit. Lying isn’t consistent with your nature. Some people tell lies out of fear of punishment, while others do it for plain deception. Whatever your excuse might be, train yourself to tell the truth at all times.
Our opening verse says, “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” because every man was created by God to be free, to be at liberty to serve Him; he can’t be bound, because truth is his true nature. Before you were born again, you couldn’t live the truth and live in truth, because you were under the dominion of sin. But now, the Bible says, “For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace” (Romans 6:14). You can do away with the habit of telling lies. You don’t need to cry or even ask God to take it away from you. Simply make up your mind to put away lying.
The Bible says, “If you want a happy, good life, keep control of your tongue, and guard your lips from telling lies” (1 Peter 3:10 TLB). Proverbs 6:16-19 NIV says, “There are six things the Lord hates, seven that are detestable to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil, a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.”
Truth is in your spirit. You can live in truth; it makes you triumphant; your spirit glows. It doesn’t matter in what situation you may find yourself; truth will put you over because truth is eternal. Praise God!

Speak
God’s Word guides my thoughts, habits, character, and ultimately builds my life. I have the dominion over every kind of sin. I live in truth, because truth is my true nature. Therefore, I’m triumphant over every situation, ever glowing in the spirit. Praise God!
