The Spirit of Truth

BUT WHEN HE, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, COMES, HE WILL GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH
(John 16:13).

Celebrate that your Heavenly Father knows that you have an enemy—the father-of-lies.  The Perfect Father did not abandon you here on this earth as an orphan to deal with the father-of-lies and his deception all by yourself.  He furnished you with the Spirit of Truth.

HE WILL NOT SPEAK ON HIS OWN; HE WILL SPEAK ONLY WHAT HE HEARS, AND HE WILL TELL YOU WHAT IS YET TO COME. HE WILL BRING GLORY TO ME BY TAKING FROM WHAT IS MINE AND MAKING IT KNOWN TO YOU
(John 16:13-14).

Take note that the Spirit of Truth does not stand on His own, but extracts His Truth from the Lord Jesus, taking from what belongs to Jesus and making it known to you.  Jesus is the Way, the TRUTH and the Life.

ALL THAT BELONGS TO THE FATHER IS MINE. THAT IS WHY I SAID THE SPIRIT WILL TAKE FROM WHAT IS MINE AND MAKE IT KNOWN TO YOU
(John 16:15).

Furthermore, recognize that the Lord Jesus obtains His Truth from His Father.  Know that all that belongs to the Father belongs to Jesus.

Be encouraged that God stands by you—FATHER, SON, and HOLY SPIRIT—to make sure you are properly equipped with the Truth.  That is how important the Truth is to Him…and that is how important you are to Him.

I bless you to live by the Truth!  Invite the Father’s Truth into every interpretation you make, every day, a hundred times a day.  Then the father-of-lies will have no hold on you.

PRAYER: Perfect Father, how encouraged I am that You did not leave me here on earth as an orphan, but is standing by me—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I open my heart for Your Words of Truth, Perfect Father. Be my Truth, Lord Jesus. Lead me into all Truth, Holy Spirit. Then no evil shall come near me, and no arrow will bruise my heart.

Maintain an Awareness

It is very important that you understand that it is not so much what happened to you during your childhood that affected you the most, BUT WHAT YOU CAME TO BELIEVE ABOUT YOUR SELF, OTHERS, AND GOD, IN RESPONSE TO THE CIRCUMSTANCES (facts) of your childhood life.
