[QUOTE="Articles, post: 29864119, member: 758"] But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth. I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth. —[URL='http://bible.faithlife.com/bible/niv/1John2.20-21']1 John 2:20-21 NIV[/URL] [SIZE=3][B]Key Thought[/B][/SIZE] Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit, whom he called the Comforter (or Counselor or Advocate, depending on the translation), would come and lead us into all truth (John 16:13). The Spirit, who inspired the writing of the Scriptures (2 Timothy 3:16-17), is alive in us and helps us know, understand, discern, and live God's truth (1 Corinthians 2:10-16; Romans 8:13-14).

[SIZE=3][B]Today's Prayer[/B][/SIZE] O Father, I join my heart with the words of your servant David, who said: "Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.
