Jesus said in John 8:32, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

We live in a world with more information at our fingertips than any generation before us, but information and truth are not always the same thing.

You can know the headlines and still not know the truth. You can know what everybody is saying and still miss what God has said.

And friend, it is not public opinion that sets you free. It is not popular thinking that sets you free. Jesus said, “Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

The devil has always been in the business of selling lies. He will tell you that your past defines you, your failures have finished you, your circumstances control you, and there is no hope for tomorrow.

But God’s truth says something different.

You are not what your past says you are. You are what God says you are.

His Word says there is forgiveness.

His Word says there is grace.

His Word says there is hope.

His Word says there is a new beginning.

Here is the problem. A Bible sitting on the shelf cannot change a life any more than medicine left in the bottle can heal the patient. We must open it, read it, believe it, and live it.

Don’t build your life on feelings because feelings change. Don’t build your life on opinions because opinions change.

Build your life on the Word of God because truth does not change.

So when the lies get loud today, turn up the truth.

Open your Bible. Stand on what God has said. Walk in what God has promised.

Because when you know the Truth, the Truth will make you free.

And friend, whom the Son makes free is free indeed!
