THE WORD IS COMPLETELY COMPLETE
The word of God is His law, the word is His instruction and it is His command. Those who allow their hearts to keep the word of God shall have length of days, long life and peace. Those who are able to keep the word of God are the ones who make God their confidence. Those who keep the word of God will know to do good when the chance to do good calls. Those who keep the Word of God do not stumble where others are stumbling. The word of God does not mark one or exempt man from afflictions but in the word there is an assured promise for deliverance out of all manner of affliction. (Proverbs 34:19) Above all, those who keep the word in their heart will know not to lean on their own understanding.
Life is a race that is set before us. Hebrew 12:1 buttressed, “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us” In the race of life, all we need to run and be able to possess what God has for us is by the word of His grace.
In the race of life, all we need is to be able to possess what God is having for us by the word of His grace. God spoke to Joshua, “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.” (Joshua 1:8) Going by the word of God, it is evident that the only track in the race of life is the word of God. Jesus, the Living word of God buttressed in His speech, “I am the way, the truth, and the life…” (John 14:6) Meditating on the word as directed by God will cause man to observe. Observing the word is investigating the word. Investigating can be described as searching out and examining the word in an attempt to learn the truth about what is hidden in the word that can make a difference in a man’s life. Without any iota of doubt, it is the word of God which you investigate that will navigate for you in the race of life.
Paul identified it in Acts 20:32, “So now, brethren, I commend you to the God and the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among the sanctified.” The word of God is power and it is to a believer what gasoline is to a car. Without it any move that you make will not endure. John the Baptist’s birth was announced by the angel of the Lord who gave him the name John. In order to begin his ministry, John needed the word to move out of the wilderness of waiting. Luke 3:2 recorded, “While Annas and Caiaphaas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son Zacharias in the wilderness. And he went into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.” John waited in the wilderness until he received the word. When the word came to him, he went out into the entire region and began the purpose of his calling. Have you taken a step before you received the word? It is never too late for you to go back to where you have been waiting. Allow the word to come and get you to where He is taking you. Do you know for sure if He has called you? If He has called you, all you need is the word which will carry you to the next level in life. Be patient, the word is coming for you to take your rightful place in the business of God by His grace. It will not come rushing in so do not go out in a hurry. God has a set time; His word will come at the appointed season.
Without any doubt, by the efficacy of the word of God, the ones who have the word have found wisdom. As the Lord lives, the wise shall inherit glory and shame will not be their legacy. With the word of God, when we roam the word will lead us, when we sleep the word will keep us and when we are awake the word will speak with us. (Proverbs 6:22) Evidently, the word of God is completely complete and will see man through in the race of life.
FAITH CAPSULE: The word of God is power and it is to a believer what gasoline is to a car.
