*REALITY BEYOND THE FACTS*

*(The Difference Between Truth And Fact)*

*📖 ‘Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”’* (John 14:6)

If you don’t know Jesus, you can never truly grasp truth. Facts may be present, but without Jesus, truth remains elusive. It’s important to distinguish between facts and truth. Facts are sensory-based information about what exists or has occurred. Truth, on the other hand, is reality beyond the senses. According to the Scriptures, the Word of God is truth—reality: *“Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth”* (John 17:17).

Truth is an affirmation of what God has said about any given condition, situation, or circumstance. Truth is spiritual law. Someone may tell you a “fact” but not tell you the truth because truth goes beyond facts. Truth delves into motives, revealing the driving forces behind actions.

In a law court, for example, one of the things the justice system looks at is the accused’s motive, purpose, or intent in committing a crime. However, time and time again, these unreliable systems of criminal justice have misjudged and convicted the wrong people because they deal mainly with facts. 

So how can you judge a person’s motive? You have to know his heart. How can you know a man’s heart? It’s only God’s Word—the truth—that exposes, sifts, analyses, and judges the very thoughts and purposes of the heart (Hebrews 4:12). Therefore, always subject the facts about any situation to the truth of God’s Word. Override facts with truths. For example, it doesn’t matter the facts resulting from the doctor’s diagnosis concerning your health; the truth is that you have divine life; therefore, divine health is your nature in Christ.

Sickness, disease, and infirmities have no place in your body. Hallelujah! Truth is greater than fact. Live in and by God’s truth today and every day. Hallelujah!

*SPEAK*

God’s Word is my life and the truth by which I live today and every day! I walk in truth, filled with the knowledge of God’s will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. I walk in dominion over fear, sickness, poverty, and death, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
