A Better Truth

Psalm 43:3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

Towards the end of yesterday’s devotional I mentioned a better truth. Today I would like to explore that idea. It stems from a unity of spirit, mind and condition of the heart. The mind changes as it sees the need. The heart changes as it yields to the will of God in conformance. The spirit does not change for it is of God.

Jeremiah 29:3 And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Seek and find are issues of the mind but the desire to search out God has to be a condition of the heart. In order for the spirit to lead us in truth, to God, there has to be a unity of the spirit, mind and heart. Without that unity, there is always going to be a pull or resistance from a heart that is not driving the effort of the mind.

Job 11:13-14 If thou prepare thine heart, and stretch out thine hands toward him; If iniquity be in thine hand, put it far away, and let not wickedness dwell in thy tabernacles.

Christ dwells in the tabernacle of your heart. As your heart is cleansed by Him it seeks to agree with the spirit in revealing the truth to your mind. That heart change is not instant for Christ is gentle in His mercies not to destroy whatever unity has begun in us to yield the fruits of righteousness.

1 Corinthians 2:9b-10 Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
