Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from him …

Battle Drill Daily Devotional
Fake News! It seems to have been all around us over the past few years. How do we know what’s true anymore?
When it comes to our bad habits, many of us are happy to believe Fake News about them. “It’s my glands.” “I just had to have those new pair of shoes.” “I can stop any time I want to, you know.” Every bad habit we have is based on a lie – the Fake News – we have told ourselves.
So how do we break free of our Fake News and make the change we desire? Willpower is not enough. And there’s no point looking to the media or reading a self-help book. They cannot help with the truth you need. Instead, Paul says, in Ephesians 4:21:
Since you have heard about Jesus and have learned the truth that comes from him …
Ephesians 4:21 NLT
Only Jesus has the truth. In fact, he is the Truth. We discover Jesus and the Truth through his Word.
The Bible shows us where we need to make a change and how to rediscover our purposes in life. God’s Word is what guides us to stay on the right paths and stay away from Fake News and bad habits. Spending time every day in God’s Word is what leads to lasting change, because it helps us face the truth about ourselves.
