1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (NKJV) 4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love rejoices in the truth.
Just as love does not rejoice in iniquity, it does rejoice in the truth.
Whereas iniquity is based on lies and deceit, truth is none of those. Truth brings freedom and light into all situations.
As we embrace truth, our lives will be transformed. Embracing truth requires that lies be rejected. This alone will push darkness out of our lives to e very large degree.
Love doesn’t just like truth, but it rejoices in truth! Why is this so? Because love is rooted in God, and God is truth in its purest form.
Jesus said “I am the way, the truth and the life”.
John 14:6 (NKJV) 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
So as we walk out God’s love and allow the truth to permeate us, we make it harder and harder for lies and darkness to have any place in us.
3 John 3 (NKJV) 3 For I rejoiced greatly when brethren came and testified of the truth that is in you, just as you walk in the truth.
Rejoice in the truth and watch darkness flee.
