THE CONTENT OF GOD'S WORD

SCRIPTURE: But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. – Matthew 4:4
 
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To neglect the Word of God is to be a victim of calamity on earth.
 
The Word of God is an indispensable and vital need in life; no one can do without it. In Scriptures, those who excelled and succeeded did so with God’s Word. Therefore, to neglect the Word is to be a victim of calamity on earth.
 
From our anchor scripture, we understand that God’s Word is the living force of life. Jesus cast out demons from the possessed by the Word (Matthew 8:16).
 
Now, what is the content of God’s Word?
 
Divine Power, Glory and Virtue 
The Word of God carries power, glory, and virtue. The Bible says, ‘…through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue…’ – 2 Peter 1:3. So, through His knowledge or the knowledge of His Word, we have power, glory and virtue. 
 
The Word of God supplies supernatural life – living above nature and the ordinary. Any man or woman who is accurately in touch with the Word of God must escape the natural into the supernatural. The Word of God makes you live a life of adventure with the touch of Divinity. You become too connected to the supernatural God to live an ordinary life.
 
Remember this: To neglect the word is to be a victim of calamity on earth.
 
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Make it a practice to study of the word consistently 
2. Apply the word you study consistently to your life.
 
PRAYER: O LORD, give me the appetite for Your Word. Open my eyes to behold wondrous things out of Your Word O LORD, in Jesus’ Name.
