Truth is relentless; and ultimately, it will define our destiny in accordance with how we implement it in our convictions.

Yeshua said, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” Jn 17:17

Yeshua (Jesus) is the walking Word of God, He is the walking example of truth. God prepared the Messiah for His earthly walk in eternity past… before the world we live in was created, as Yeshua was the “lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” 1Pet 1:20

The Bible, by Paul’s teaching, declares we need to “renew” our minds.

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Ro 12:2

And Paul said to the Philippians:

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Phil 2:5

To have the “mind of Christ” in us, is to have the Word of God in our hearts (minds), by conviction, that we will chose to follow Christ by obeying the Word of God, just as He did.

When Yeshua (Jesus) said, “if you love me, keep my Commandments.” John 14:15; it was not a suggestion. Love, as defined by GOD/YHWH, is to obey His Word/Torah, and then trust Him for the power of His Holy Spirit to empower you to faithfully walk in agreement with his Word... it is a walk of faith, and faith is a gift from God; and when we exercise faith, God alone is the power source of its outcome. God is always faithful to His Word. It is our “response” of/by faithfulness that finalizes the outcome. Now, we need to be careful not to presume upon God for “expedient” results... As patience is one of the fruits of the Spirit. Gal 5:22-23

Now there is going to be opposition to walking in faithfulness to God’s Word. The objective of the devil (Satan) and his minions is to keep mankind from finding the truth... and the definition of truth is [that which YHWH has defined as truth... that being His Torah Word.] Because God’s Word is “Spirit,” and is able to transform our thinking... and consequently our actions thereafter, it should be our most important pursuit to find out what God has said and what it is that He expects of those who want to have an acceptable faithful relationship with Him.

In our modern world, and because of all the distractions that compete for our attention, we must give attention to the eternal pursuits ordained of God, not the temporal attractions that distort the truth, cleverly presented by the devil, that are often an illusion and packaged attractively and presented as something that must be urgently addressed… the Scriptures tell us to, “seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” Mat 6:33.

Have you ever read Mat 6:1-32 ?

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer. Ps 19:14

Remember: The power of truth is the most powerful force in the universe… because God’s word is Truth Jn 17:17

Shalom… John

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.;  Mat 6:21
