The LORD has been pointing out an issue that seems to be very prevalent in our culture today regarding True Honesty.

As I was pondering what He was sharing with me about having a love for Truth and being Honest with ourselves and others, The LORD said, “Many are “stretching The Truth” in order to impress and present things that are happening the way they want you to see them, rather than the way they actually are!

It is deception at work to control and cover up the whole Truth.”

According to Merriam-Webster dictionary, “stretch the truth” is an idiom meaning to say something that is not exactly true: to describe something as larger or greater than it really is.

It is a form of exaggeration or deception, often used to embellish a story or situation.

Exaggeration : Stretching the truth involves overstating facts or details to make them seem larger or more impactful than they truly are . (e.g. He was stretching the truth to make the story more interesting.)

Deception : By presenting a distorted version of reality, it’s a form of deception, even if it’s not outright lying.

When I was a child, I remember, the term “just a little “White Lie” was often thought of as acceptable because after all, it was not intended to cause harm but create the story the way we wanted to tell it.

it nor exaggeration that is not intended to cause harm but rather to create a more positive image.

“Let’s talk about Discernment,” says The LORD God.

“If you would practice Discernment on yourselves, the Discernment or Insight you think you have, you would very likely be surprised by a Revelation of your own self-centeredness or selfishness or inability and you would never desire to ‘practice’ on another.

The reality of self is a Truth that is greatly needed in order to die to self and live unto Righteousness.”

Self will never crucify self because self is always on self’s side!

If you know me, you know I have taught on that many times.

I am forever grateful to my friend who taught me that truth.

The LORD said, “Daughter, I AM drawing My People unto Myself in this late hour to give them a deeper hunger for truth in the inward parts.

I AM removing the fear of man that entered their heart through the deception and lies that they have believed.

As they are delivered from the spirit of fear, I will fill them with Love, Power, and a Sound Mind.

As their eyes are opened to see The Truth, they shall be filled with The Spirit of Truth — Who will set them free.

True Honesty is a desire that is birthed in The Fear of The LORD.

I AM giving many the desire for Honesty and then I will fulfill that desire that will set the free.

They will have a desire for True Honesty with themselves first and then with others.

Many intercessors have been assigned to pray for those feeling rejection and fear due to the deep deception that is widespread all over the world.

I announce to you today,” says The LORD, “I have heard their cries and I AM releasing The Spirit of The Fear of The LORD to birth a move of holiness throughout the land!

The restless hearts that have struggled to get peace shall be filled with peace that passes all understanding.

They will come to grips with who they were created to be and will take hold of my unchanging hand as I lead them forth into their purpose and call.

They shall no longer wrestle with the desire to be like someone else, but they will finally be at peace with who I have created them to be.

Yes, they shall know their true identity when they see themselves as I see them,” says the Creator.

“You have entered a time that shall be spoken of as the 11^th hour and it will be remembered for many sudden breakthroughs.

The blind eyes shall see! Yes, in the natural and in the physical.

The lame shall walk — but beloved, most importantly, the hard, cold hearts shall melt like wax in My Presence and they shall repent for their anger and bitterness as they learn the truth that will set them free.

Many prodigals shall meet me on the long road of deception they are traveling, even as Paul met me on the road to Damascus.

They shall SEE me and run into my arms for a warm welcome home.

The Spirit of True Honesty shall bring conviction and repentance. Many who were called as leaders shall have a ‘Paul moment’ and suddenly arise to their calling with a new heart, a honest heart and a desire to keep their hearts pure and step into their roles as true sons and daughters in the end-times.

It is time to set your mind on things above,” says The LORD of all.

“Say to yourselves, “I have changed my mind.”

It is a set time to tear down every fortress built on feelings, mindsets, and emotional drama and trauma that you viewed as self protection.

You are secure in Me I AM your hope and your strength. I AM your hiding place. I AM your Father. I AM all you need. I AM your Blessed Assurance.

Now, go and shout to the world, “I am free! I am free!! I am free at last!!!””
