DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

MEN OF THE WORD

MEN OF THE WORD

Colossians 3:12–17
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. (V. 16)

    The word of God is our sword of the spirit (Ephesian 6:17). The word is our sure word of Prophesy (2 Peter 1:19). It is the truth, that is, the law that rules heavens and earth. The word is the covenant and the eternal promise of God. It has been finding fulfilment since ages past and it shall continue to find fulfilment as we put total trust in God and we wait on Him.

The Scripture says, seek, and you shall find, ask, and you shall be given, knock and the door shall be open unto you. Children of God seek and ask and knock, all these shall be released unto you through the word which is God Himself (John 1:1). The word of God is the bases for our faith. Faith in God is faith in the word. It is the foundation for our rest and our peace in God. That means, it is on the word we stand and have hope in. It is the creative force of God. This creative force is also in us whenever we speak the word of God (Genesis 1:2-3).

The word is therefore strongly important in the life of every victorious child of God. The Word is God Himself (John 1:1). The word is Spirit and Life (John 6:63). The word gives life and strength to the mind which enhances our victory (Psalm 119:97-100).

If you will be a victor, the word must dwell in you richly, then you have a solid base for overcoming in all situations.

Prayer: Lord, help me to store your word in my heart for my victory.

‘‘THE WORD OF GOD IS GOD IN LETTERS, WHICH BECOMES ACTIVE AS MEN SPEAK IT BY FAITH’’
