The Holy Spirit Is Truth
"Truth" is a person and that person is the Holy Spirit. Huh? How so?
John 16 says, “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.”
The Spirit of God knows all things. What amazing access we have! The person of truth lives in us! There is no lie too crafty that the Holy Spirit cannot guide us away from.
The Holy Spirit doesn’t just want to protect you from lies. He also gives you insight into the heart of God in all situations. We must learn to lean on and depend on the Holy Spirit in everything.
From the moment we wake up to when we go to sleep, we have a window into God’s mind. We can know exactly what He thinks about us and trust that it’s true. We can know what He hates, what He loves, what He has accomplished, and know that those things are the truth.
Numbers 23:19 says God cannot lie. It’s an impossibility. We can trust God, and we can trust the Spirit to lead us to what is good, right, and true.
