Dikuduskan Dalam Kebenaran | Sanctified By The Truth

Indo

Pembacaan Alkitab: Yohanes 17

Tuhan Yesus berdoa dan dari doa-Nya kita dapat melihat kerinduan hati-Nya, yakni agar kita menjadi satu dan agar kita ada di dalam Tuhan dan Tuhan di dalam kita. Dan Yesus juga berdoa agar kita dikuduskan dalam kebenaran dan bahwa Firman-Nya adalah kebenaran. Inilah rahasianya, kita tahu bahwa Tuhan itu kudus dan kita perlu dikuduskan agar kita dapat menjadi satu dengan-Nya dan kita dikuduskan dalam kebenaran, yakni Firman Tuhan. Sebab Firman Tuhan mengajarkan kita akan apa yang benar, apa yang tidak baik, apa yang perlu kita ubah. Firman Tuhan juga menasihati, membimbing, mengajar, mendidik kita. Sehingga kita dapat membuang yang tidak berkenan di hadapan Tuhan dan kita dapat menambahkan apa yang berkenan di hadapan Tuhan terhadap hidup kita. Dan makin kita membaca dan merenungkan Firman Tuhan, maka hidup kita akan makin mengikuti kebenaran itu dan hidup kita akan dikuduskan dalam kebenaran yang kita ikuti itu. Maka dari itu, biarlah kita terus memenuhi hidup kita, yakni pikiran dan hati kita dengan Firman Tuhan dan lakukan Firman itu dengan iman dan dengan tekun. Maka kehidupan kita akan terlihat buahnya dan makin dikuduskan dalam kebenaran Tuhan.

Bible Reading: John 17

The Lord Jesus prayed and from His rpayer we can see His heart desire, that is, for us to become one and for us to be in the Lord and the Lord in us. And Jesus also prayed for us to be sanctified by His truth and that His Word is truth. This is the key, we know that the Lord is holy and that we need to be sanctified for us to become one with Hima nd we are sanctified by His truth, that is the Word of God. Because the Word of God teaches us what is righteous, what is not good, what needs to be changed. The Word of God also advises, guides, teaches, disciplines us. Such that we are able to get rid of all that displeases the Lord and we are able to add what is pleasing to Him in our lives. And the more we read and meditate the Word of God, then our lives will follow more of His truth and our lives will be sanctified by that truth that we follow. THerefore, let us always keep filling our lives, that is our minds and hearts, with the Word of God and do those Word of God by faith and with due diligence. Then our lives will see its fruits and will be sanctified more and more each day by His truth.
