“I will send a great Helper to you from the Father, one known as the Spirit of truth. He comes from the Father and will point to the truth as it concerns Me.” John 15:26  (VOICE)

It is not always easy to know who is telling the truth and who is not—and we can often make judgments based on what we see or think—but we only see in part.  That is where real truth, God’s truth, is so important, as it is His truth alone that sets us free!  A key in all of this is to put aside our own thoughts and judgments, even of ourselves, and truly see as He sees!

God in His kindness never expected us to do that alone.  In fact He sent us the precious Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth, to lead us and guide us into all truth—to allow us to see, hear, and understand the heart of God, to perceive and receive the life of Jesus and His healing words, and to walk in the glorious deliverance that is our inheritance in Christ.

Holy Spirit knows the Father’s heart for you, and the truth of all that you have been through.  He knows every word and hope-filled promise that Jesus has made, and exactly how to apply them, and He knows the pain and brokenness you have experienced and that of others too.  He will help you to define or re-discover the past, in light of God’s redeeming love; understand the various trials you have encountered and endured; bring revelation and understanding to situations and circumstances in this present moment; and paint a true picture of the glorious future ahead.  The place of set aside beauty where you are truly meant to be!

Whenever you struggle to understand, whenever confusion comes and chaos surrounds—just ask the Holy Spirit, Who is with you always.  He will come to you as Truth, with liberation from the lies, close at hand, just as the Father desires it to be. No more brokenness or bondage for you dear one, you have God’s help from heaven, and with His truth in your midst, your freedom is guaranteed!
