Finding God’s Truth
There are many claims to spiritual truth. So how can we know that we are not being deceived? Anyone who seriously seeks God’s Truth will find it, for it is found in The Scriptures which are preserved for us down through the years.
It was through reading The Bible that I came to know Gods Truth. I had arrived at the place in my life where I accepting that The Scriptures were The Word of God, and were written to lead us in life as stated in Psalm 119:105: "Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path," I would read them morning, noon and night. I devoured the Bible because It was the most exciting book that I had ever read. It became alive to me becoming a personal message to my soul. God spoke through the writings that men had penned thousands of years before.
The Bible revealed to me God’s love when I came to the realization that God’s truth is revealed in the person of Jesus Christ as He proclaimed in John 14:6: "I am the way and the truth and the life." I was introduced to The Jesus of Scripture - a Jesus that I had not known. This was the Savior who loved me so much, that He died for my sins, even though I would not be born for another two thousand years. Sometimes I would weep while reading of Jesus and His love.
I was convicted of my sin and the need of redemption. Confessing my sin, I called upon The Name of Jesus as my Lord and my Savior- receiving forgiveness. My world was changed because I was born again (John 3:3). Filled with The Holy Spirit I could now understand spiritual truths. Once I was spiritually blind, but now I can see that God is my Father, and Jesus is my Savior, making Heaven my eternal home.
Today, let us thank our God for revealing His Truth.
