FAITH CAPSULE: Let the word take its place in you.
Psalm 138
How do you give yourself to God?
Acts 6:4 informs all, “But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
All must give themselves to God continually.
To give to God continually is to seek God diligently.
Do not give to God short if you expect to gain more from God.
It is faith that quickens to give onto God.
Hebrews 11:6 encourages, “But without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a Giving to God rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”
Studying the word of God is not just reading the word of God to gain and retain the presence of God.
The word of God.
The word of God is His power.
Power belongs to God.
Psalm 138:2 informs all, “For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.”
The word of God has the power to heal and to deliver.
Psalm 107:20 records, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
His word is here for any who will engage His word for deliverance and preservation.
Are you still waiting for the word of God to bring forth your deliverance and preservation?
Hebrews 4:12 states, “For the word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”
The word of God, by its power, demands our time.
Are you giving time to study the word of God or skimming through the pages of His word?
All that is needed most in this world is His word.
The word of God is for our learning.
Romans 15:4 admonishes, “For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.”
Are you spending time studying the word of God or the world?
For those who are spending time on the word of God, the word of God will no doubt work for those in this world of wickedness.
Anyone spending time for the world more than word needs readjustment of time.
Are you expecting the word of God to answer on your behalf when you have not been giving yourself to the word of God?
The word of God cannot fail and will not fail.
The book of Isaiah 55:11 declares, “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”
Let the word of God grow your life.
Prayer for today: Ask that the word of God will take its place in your life.
