John 17:17 NIV Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.
People say facts, but call it truth. They’ll say they’re sick, the country is going to hell, they’re struggling financially, they’re depressed, or they’re worried.
These may be facts, but it’s not the truth. The things in God’s word are the truth. Using the same examples from above, the truth is we’re healed (1 Pet. 2:24), this nation is blessed (Ps. 33:12), we’re abundantly supplied (2 Cor. 9:8), we have joy (Gal. 5:22), or we’re worry-free (1 Pet. 5:7).
What God says about us in His word is the truth. To fully benefit from this truth, there are a few things we must do. First, we must be saved (Rom. 10:9). None of this works without salvation. Secondly, we must believe in the finished works of Jesus. Everything that comes with salvation is ours. Finally, we must act on what we believe. There are a few things we must do to display our belief and trust in God’s word.
Here are some examples. Through our salvation we’re healed, being abundantly supplied is connected with our giving, and being worry-free is associated with giving our cares to God.
Once we’ve done our part of accepting Jesus Christ as Lord, believe in the finished works of Jesus, and act on His word, we can boldly tell the truth.
God’s word is truth. Stop magnifying facts and tell the truth.
