TREASURING GOD’S WORD – Part II

Dear Father in Heaven, let the word of God empower us to live a life according to Father’s will… I pray let Your anointing flow, In Jesus name Amen.

I will worship toward Your holy temple, And praise Your name For Your loving kindness and Your truth; For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.= Psalm 138:2

HOW TO LEARN –

  • BY STUDYING IT – AND APPLYING THE WORD

When you have a company, you won’t feel bored, tired and reading will be adventurous! … Your companion in reading the Word of God is God the Holy Spirit, WELCOME HIM BEFORE YOU READ THE WORD, ASK HIM TO OPEN THE SCRIPTURES TO YOU, REVEAL CHRIST JESUS! He is more than willing to tell! JUST ASK. 

For He will reveal all Truth to you and make reading the Bible an adventure in Christ! You will enjoy the revelations He will bring and will be filled with awe for God and love Him dearly…  You will also be able to make wiser decisions in areas where you suffered for you didn’t know what God wanted you to do, there was spiritual darkness  but now He will Help you. When we study the word of God we receive knowledge from God about Him, His heart and mind and we perceive what He says. Applying it in real life we get results. We see God move on our behalf.  

  •  IN THE BATTLEFIELD  – USE THE WORD

Even Jesus set an example by using the Word of God against satan’s lies. He said – “It is written”. (Read Matt 4). Satan is a defeated foe, yet he uses strategies to collapse our walk in God, He isn’t afraid when you go to church, he isn’t afraid when you are an anointed vessel of God, he fears when you pray for he fears God. He knows the power that destroyed him! Treasure God’s Word always.

  • THE WORD WASHES YOU –

    ENTER INTO YOUR GARDEN

The Word of God cleanses us. How? God’s word is alive, it is living! when you allow Him to speak to you through the Word, He is able to remove all that marred you through life’s terrible circumstances. The Word of God is a treasure. 

  • GOD’S WORD ILLUMINATES –

Where there is darkness, confusions; God’s word destroys it. Only the Word of God is truth and the Truth dispels darkness by revealing what is hidden and enlightens our eyes that we see more than what we see with natural eyes.

  • WILLING TO UNLEARN MAN’S WAYS –

Many times you don’t receive what God speaks to you because there is a barrier and the barrier is the LOGIC SYSTEM. God’s logic is HIGHER AND ABOVE than man’s rational thinking, reasoning and logic. To know His mind, be willing to surrender your set way of thinking and when the motive of your heart is pure in His sight, He will answer all the questions that arises in your heart and mind.  TRUST HIM.

  • RECEIVE HIS WAYS –

We have to say YES to be His students, We have to Honor God as our Teacher and learn from God the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit will teach us through His servants any one He wills to use… His ways will be a sermon, a devotion, a conversation with someone, some times more supernatural – He will make Himself known to you. One must discern the voice of God while you are hearing the sermon or reading a Christian book. You have to HEAR GOD. You must seek Him with your heart. 

  • TREASURE GOD’S LAWS AND COMMANDMENTS

His commandments are what set the kingdom of God different from man’s world. We learn what is light and what is not. We learn His righteousness, His abhorrence to sin. He is Wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Your life can be built by His Word.

  • GOD REMOVES SIN

The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the belly (spirit of man)- Prov 20:27

Through the conviction of Holy Spirit, we know what we must put off, we must let it be removed, for we must not let darkness reign. It does separate us from certain habits which we thought were harmless unless revealed by Jesus. He is a gentle Teacher and loves to teach. He even rebukes in love and it is sweet.

  • TO FOLLOW HIM

Jesus called the Apostles as He met them and said “follow Me“, it is the same thing TODAY. To follow Jesus and not ask Him to follow you. If you do – He won’t follow you, you will be alone on that road and He will wait for you to humble, demolish your ego , pride and follow Him in the path of righteousness. He will lead us through the narrow path of life. Even when satan uses all his old faded tricks to create fear, doubt in your heart – through the sword of the spirit – you can destroy all evil plan of satan. Father God seeks those who will follow Him and trust Him. 

  • FEAR OF THE LORD

Fear of the living God keeps us away from sinning. For the wages of sin is death. There is no pleasure in sin though satan lies to us in times of temptation. Fear of God keeps us from sinning. He is love and also we know He is Holy and that’s the reason to destroy the middle wall of separation between God and man, God the Father sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ, that through His death our sin, our iniquity and our transgression be forgiven in Him.  That now we are  circumcised in heart. For transgressors will not inherit the kingdom of God. Finally all our works will be tested in fire and judged accordingly by God.

Fear of God is also being in awe of Him, we are called sons of obedience in Christ Jesus. Jesus obeyed God at all points, even at the point of death. Disobedience to the Holy commandments were the reason why Adam and eve fell into sin. His voice bids us to keep our feet away from satan’s trap and nets.

  • GOD’S WORD LIBERATES US –

Some who have thought God’s Word binds them have not truly experienced true liberty. They do not know what freedom is. God’s word liberates you from religious thinking, He gives you the freedom to love and not fill your heart with hatred and darkness. God’s word is life, it is bread to the hungry and water to the thirsty. It is miracle for the healing and deliverance someone has waited for. It is a message of love. You don’t have to cheat in your business to succeed, God will make a way when you yield in submission. Abraham was the most wealthiest person of his time and he was a servant of God.

  • GOD’S WORD IS TRUTH

Truth is what man seeks in His pleasure, labor, relationships and it is revealed only in Christ Jesus and the Word reveals the Christ your Saviour.

  • GOD’S WORD IS WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE –

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,

But fools despise wisdom and instruction.  – Prov 1: 7

Receive what He says, His life, make the right choices by taking the directions of Holy Spirit and you will be blessed. 

God bless us in knowing His Word always and forever. Treasure His Word for His Word is indeed Treasure! 

Love
