TRUTH IS THE WORD OF GOD

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (John 17:17).

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD.

The world doesn’t know what truth is. In fact, when Jesus stood before Pilate and declared that He came to bear witness to the truth, Pilate was confused and asked, “What is truth?” (John 18:38). But the Lord Jesus already gave the answer; truth is the Word of God. To live in the truth, therefore, is to live in the Word just as walking in the truth is walking in the Word.

That’s why you must open yourself to the ministry of the Holy Spirit to teach you God’s truths. He’s the Spirit of truth sent by the Father to guide you into all truth (John 16:13). He unveils the truth about life, about God, about the Kingdom, and about you. He unveils the realities of life to you, and truth is reality.

Facts may change, but truth is eternal. And the key to becoming truth-conscious is meditating on the Word. As you meditate on the Word, your spirit is trained and filled with truth, making it a trustworthy guide. The Word you’ve deposited into your spirit becomes readily available, always present, always alive and ready to rise to the surface whenever you need it.

Therefore, live in the truth by living the Word. Living the Word is doing the Word. We’re Word practitioners, and that’s where the blessing is: “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves… But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed” (James 1:22-25).

 CONFESSION

I live in the truth, walk in the truth, and meditate daily on the truth—God’s Word. And by the Spirit of truth, I’m guided in God’s perfect will for my life, manifesting fruits and works of righteousness as I live in the consciousness of my heritage, blessings and divine realities in Christ Jesus. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY

John 18:37-38; Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. 38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all.

John 16:13; Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Psalm 119:160 Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

MONDAY AUGUST 26TH 2024 EXTRICATED FROM DEATH …who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Timothy 1:10).  PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  The Bible records that in ancient times, humans lived for exceptionally long periods with lifespans exceeding 900 years. However, as sin increased, lifespans diminished. Genesis 6:3 says because of sin, man's lifespan was limited to 120 years. Moses, in his psalms, made an observation that due to sin, the typical lifespan of man was seventy years or eighty for those who were stronger. Even in old age, man’s life was filled with toil and sorrow, ultimately ending in death (Psalm 90:8-10). The Lord Jesus, however, came to address the root cause of this limitation, which is sin. Through His sacrifice, He provided salvation from sin and made eternal life possible. Eternal life includes “deathlessness.” When you were born again, you passed from death to life (John 5:24). Recall what we read in our them...

MONDAY, 14TH JULY 2025 THE VIRGIN BIRTH CONFIRMS HIS DEITY   Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us  (Matthew 1:23). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME    When we say Jesus Christ is deity, we’re affirmingthat He is God. This claim is significant, especially when you consider that many around the world view Jesus merely as a prophet or a great teacher. While it may seem respectful for some to call Him a great prophet or a remarkable teacher, these assertions fall far short of His true identity.    That’s the reason it’s important to understand who He really is by first examining the miracle of His birth. TheBible describes His birth as extraordinary, something that had never occurred in all of history. Matthew 1:18 says, “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with c...
