Believe What is True
Believe What is True: The heart process of experiencing what is True about who God is and how He sees women so she will trust Him to remove every obstacle in her relationship with Immanuel - the God who is with her.
In the Western world, we have absorbed a corporate lie: only one half of our brain does the “real” work. We have idolized the consumption of knowledge as entirely a pursuit for our left brain; the logical, reasonable, factual side. But the Bible does not support such an approach to the pursuit of Truth. In Scripture we find words like “whole-heartedness”. Or passages that command us to love the Lord with all our heart and mind and strength.
When Romans 12:2 implores us to “be transformed by the renewing of our minds” it means our whole mind: logic and reason as well as feeling, experience, and perceptions. When we dismiss the role of our right brain in the pursuit of Truth, not only do we make transformation impossible, we leave ourselves wide open for unTruths (traumas) to shatter our identity. In so doing we reduce God’s Word to a framework of principles, which may reveal wisdom, but have no evident power to rescue us from our own emotional and psychological poverty.
In our Believe Pillar we take clues from our creative brain to expose areas where the mind and heart may not agree; leading to broken identities (traumas) or a broken characterization of God. Then we invite Immanuel to heal both the mind and the heart through the power of His Truth.
Knowledge of Truth is the architect of Hope. Belief is the manifestation of Freedom.
