A Genuine Encounter With God Begins When We Choose to Live in Truth and Sincerity Before Him
However, many live based on deception, illusion, and emotion. They convince themselves that they are in the truth, but they do not convert to it. As a result, they develop superficial and false faith.
This is one reason why many people, even those who attend church, do not receive the Holy Spirit. They may participate in meetings, give offerings, and fulfill religious practices, but they lack transparency before God. When there is falsehood, what is offered to Him loses its purity and cannot be accepted as true worship.
Jesus stated that the devil is the father of lies (John 8:44). Therefore, those who choose to live in falsehood draw closer to what he represents.
God, however, seeks truthful people. Even if someone is a sinner, has made many mistakes, or is considered morally impure in the eyes of people, sincerity creates the conditions for God to work in their life.
Recognizing who you are and admitting your own mistakes are things that no one can do for you. But when you decide to live in truth and sincerity before God, the path opens to a true encounter with His Spirit.
And the truth is the Lord Jesus, as He Himself declared: “I am the way, the truth, and the life…” (John 14:6)
