KNOW THE TRUTH

ALETHEIA DEVOTIONAL: TOWARD KNOWLEDGE
DATE: July3, 2017
TOPIC: KNOW THE TRUTH
TEXT: John8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
Truth is from the greek word ALETHEIA meaning what is true in things appertaining to God and the duties of man, moral and religious truth. I want you to understand that to every individual, what he knew is the truth but this text is telling us that of all things that you know, there is a need to go to the level of knowing the truth about God and all that pertains to him; His righteousness, faith, obedience, blessing and covenant.

The subject matter ‘TRUTH’ is not just a word we should come by but what must be known. Meaning that it’s not all who claim to know this truth that truly know it. To know comes from the Greek word ‘GINOSKO’ meaning to understand, perceive, and to have a knowledge of something. And from the Greek word ‘EPIGNOSIS’ meaning to have a complete knowledge of something.

The knowing of the truth give freedom from the Greek word ‘ELEUTHEROUS’ meaning not a slave or not under restraint. You wonder if you are in bondage. This freedom is relevant to what Apst. Paul was talking about in Col.1:13 ‘Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son’. A freedom from the grief of hell.

John8:32 can now be paraphrase as ” and you shall come to the complete knowledge of the true things appertaining to God and the duties of man, moral and religious truth and these truth that you are having its complete knowledge will deliver you from the kingdom of darkness and translated into the kingdom of Jesus.

DOING THE WORD

ALETHEIA DEVOTIONAL: TOWARD KNOWLEDGE
DATE: July2, 2017
TOPIC: DOING THE WORD
TEXT: Luke11:28 But He said, yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God and keep it.

God’s word truly prosper, lead and give guidance. The entrance of it gives light,understanding unto the simple Psalm119:130. Through God’s word, steps are ordered Psalm119:133. This word has the capability to change lives of both the unsaved and the saved. Through it men of faith grow, understand and do more for christ.

There are people who though have read a lot of this word yet the effectual power is not working for them. The word had zero affect on them.

WHY? James1:22 but be ye doers of the word and not hearers only,deceiving your ownselves. It is one thing to hear or read the word and another thing to do it. The doing of the word is what make us blessed. It must be the very act of a believer to do the word as no man ever live to be the word except he’s doing it. Receiving and reading the word will be a useless effort if he fail to do the word. ‘Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man…matt7:24’ so it’s a wise thing to put the word into action.learning without implementation is worthless so look into the word of God with the eye to put them into practice for a changed life comes from doing what the word says.

Don’t just read about faith, walk in faith. Don’t just hear about giving, give cheerfully and tirelessly. Don’t just hear about love, love unconditionally. Don’t settle for the HEARD or LEARNED word, STRIVE to DO THE WORD.

FURTHER STUDY: Deuteronomy 28
Confession: I receive not only the hearing word of truth but also the doing heart. My actions are composed of the word of God.
