Truth is vital in our walk with God. Jesus is the Truth, and His principles are truth. Truth gives us clarity, confidence and security. Truth is the revelation of what is actually true. It is the realization of fact and reality. Psalm 43:3 says: “Oh, send out Your light and Your truth! Let them lead me…”
Revelation of God’s will and purpose in your life are critical to us because:
* Revelation determines you mindset;
* Your mindset determines your attitude;
* Your attitude determines your approach and actions toward people and things;
* Your consistent actions create good habits;
* Your habits determine your success in life and ministry!
John 8:32 “and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free”
The Apostle James had a powerful revelation about trials and tribulations. He was joyful in the midst of trials because he knew that these tests produced endurance, spiritual maturity and inner peace. He also knew that this is the way to develop strong, completely developed faith. James 1:2-4 (AMP) “Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing”. So if you are experiencing tests and trials, be assured that this process will help to mature you in your faith, spiritual maturity and inner peace. Wow, are you ready to be joyful in the midst of your trial. Remember that when you get to the end of the trial, there will be a great reward!
