I was blessed by this Word in church so I decided to share it. Be blessed!
Truth is necessary for real healing to occur in our lives
You are as sick as the secrets that you keep. Find someone to pray with if you have a confession to make so GOD can heal you completely James 5:16 Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.
Truth confronts sin and hypocrisy. Hypocrisy is living in duplicity. Duplicity is living on the outside what your not being on the inside.
We are stopped in our healing to the degree we are honest
When confronted Saul hid
When David was confronted he confessed. And there was a major difference on how GOD was able to move in their lives based on their honesty.
As Long as we conceal we won't be healed
True LOVE requires Truth
If a person is not truthful about themselves they can't be loved because they present themselves as being abc when they are really xyz. What happens is they feel they are never loved because they never presented their true self. So it becomes a self fullfilling prophecy.
When a person seduces they dehumanize themselves
Hypocrisy comes from the world of acting the putting on of the mask
Hypocrites who put on an act rob themselves of True love
I John 1
6 So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth. 7 But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
Truth is tied to our fellowship with GOD and with oneanother
Truth brings us into right fellowship with oneanother
Some religious circles relate in untruth. They don't allow space for a person to be real they want everyone to act as though everything is all good like there's not problems going on when inside people are something else. They potraying themselves one way in church but act different outside
Be honest in prayer
Some people liet to GOd while praying to HIm.
Make your prayer Col 2:13 You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. 14 He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. 15 In this way, he disarmed[d] the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross.
