Читать книгу The Truth About Debt - Themba A Malashe - Страница 4

In this book I will be talking to you regarding the truth about debt. It is necessary for you to know the truth as it has the power to set you free. Only the knowledge of truth can set you free.

“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free”. John 8:32

The million dollar question is: what is the meaning of this truth, or rather, who is this truth? Before we continue, let’s answer the question that has blinded us all these years, and unlock the world of freedom that is found in knowing the truth. All answers about the truth can only be found from the book of life, that is, the Bible.

“Jesus told him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.’” John:14:6

Jesus is the truth whom God has sent to save the drowning world. He is our road map to freedom from all forms of debts, because he paid all our debts and took away all our iniquities. To further confirm this, let’s look at a verse from the book of John 8:36 “So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.”

This is Jesus speaking as the only begotten Son of God, confirming that he is indeed the truth who came to deliver us from all kinds of debts. The only way to be freed from anything in any manner, is by knowledge of the truth. Knowledge of the truth is the key to our freedom. As we are about to dig deeper into the knowledge of the truth about debt, it is imperative that we invite the Holy Spirit who is our counsellor and our helper, to counsel us and help us to understand as we read through this book. Join me in this short prayer of declaration against debt, and if you can, please make it your everyday prayer:

“Heavenly Father,

thank you that Jesus your only begotten Son, came from heaven to earth

to teach us the truth;

from the earth He went to the cross, to forgive all our debts;

from the cross to the grave to uproot the root of debt;

from the grave back to heaven

to intercede for us that we may live the life that he created — the life of freedom.

Holy Spirit, counsel and help us to do just that for the Glory of God.

We ask this, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!”
