John 8:32 32And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
Consider the cold, hard facts that these three people faced: The aunt of
a lady in our church saw her X-ray which showed that one of her two
kidneys was cancerous. A couple in our church read their medical reports
which said that they would never be able to produce a child. A lady in our church
who acted as a guarantor ended up being asked by the finance company to pay it
S$34 million.
When such situations hit us and we allow the facts to settle in our hearts, we
end up feeling greatly troubled. But when we let the truths of God’s Word settle
them all, we will sense the Holy Spirit bearing witness to the truths that we are
believing. He is the Spirit of truth. (John 16:13) He is not the Spirit of facts and
does not bear witness to facts.
It may be a fact that you are sick. The doctors say that you are sick. The X-ray
film shows that you are sick. But God’s Word says that by Jesus’ stripes you are
healed! (Isaiah 53:5) That is the truth about your situation. What is the difference
between fact and truth? Facts change, but truth — God’s Word — remains!
When God’s people choose to defy the facts and walk instead in His truths
regarding their situations, the Holy Spirit in them will bear witness to the truths
that they are believing.
The lady with the cancerous kidney underwent an operation to remove the organ.
But praise God, she received supernatural restoration as later X-rays showed two
healthy kidneys instead of one! God had formed a new kidney for her!
The childless couple received their miracle bundle of joy after seven years.
Today, they are proud parents of not one, but four children!
The church member with the S$34 million debt told the finance company
that it was not being fair to her and that God would protect her. The company’s
management miraculously decided to cancel her debt!
The next time you are hit by disturbing facts, let God’s Word settle the truth
about your situation. And as the Holy Spirit bears witness to the truths that you
are believing, the facts will change and you will receive your miracle!
