Seeking Truth Feeds Your Spirit
“Buy the truth, and do not sell it, also wisdom and instruction and understanding.”
Proverbs 23:23

Ponder This
Truth is to your spirit what food is to your body. Truth is to your spirit what light is to your eyes. Truth is to your spirit what melody is to your ears. When you read, don’t read merely to get facts; read to get truth. You’ve only got one life. Do you want to live and die without learning the truth? To know truth is to know God. All truth is God’s truth. The devil doesn’t have any truth; he is the source of deception.
You say, “Then, Pastor, I’m just going to read the Bible and nothing else.” No, that’d be a mistake. You need to read widely. The Apostle Paul did. He was a literate man. He quoted the Greek poets and philosophers. He was familiar with all that went on because Paul knew that all truth intersects.
When you learn, when you read, you don’t read just to be a gatherer of facts. You learn to be a channel of truth. If you read and you grow in knowledge, but you don’t grow in grace, you’re going to make yourself obnoxious. You just become one of those people who parades his or her knowledge. Don’t read so you can split a theological hair into nine different sections but read so that you can be a whole person. Read for enlightenment because to know truth is to know God.
- How have you been growing and learning in truth?
- In what areas of your life do you need to grow in truth?
Practice This
Read a book on a different subject than you are used to. As you read, seek, and discern the truth through prayer
