THE WORD OF GOD

Memorise:
The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. .. Psalm 119:130

Read:
2 Timothy 3:14-17

Message

When the Lord was tempted by the devil in Matthew 4:1-11, the weapon our lord used was, "It is written." The devil could not argue against that weapon; all he did was to also quote the word of God and try to give it a wrong interpretation. Psalm 119:89 says:

Forever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

The word of God has absolute authority, therefore, any believer who knows the Scriptures will always be above the wiles of the devil and his cohorts. This is because God's word is final and the devil cannot change it.

How often do you study your Bible? Many believers only open their Bibles when they are in church and the pastor asks the congregation to read the Bible passage for the sermon. This is why there are many powerless Christian today. If you don't study the word of God, how will you know the God that you claim to be serving and the blessings that He has made available for you in Him?

The word of God must be like food to you. Jeremiah 15:16 says:

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts.

When you esteem the word of God like the food that you depend on to survive, it will bring you so much joy because, all of a sudden, you will realise that you are called by the name of the Lord of Hosts. Names are door openers. I you are the son of a king, whenever you mention your father's name anywhere in the kingdom, you will be treated with respect and doors will be opened to you because you are called by the name of the king.

Our God is the King of kings and the Lord of Hosts. In other words, all kings, the hosts in heaven, on the earth, and underneath the earth are subject to Him. When you eat His word, you personify His name. This means that all kings, the hosts in heaven, on the earth, and underneath the earth will cooperate to do your will. Study the word of God and meditate on it every day. Beloved, this is how to walk in God's blessings for you and have good success (Joshua 1:8).

Reflection:
Do you esteem the word of God as you should?

King James Version

2 Timothy 3:14-17

But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; [15] And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. [16] All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: [17] That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
