Christians have a powerful tool- The word of God. Unfortunately, not many christians know this, some who know do not study it, and most others who study it do not even believe in it ( by their actions it's easy to tell they have no faith in the word of God).
The Word of God is powerful! You can tap into this power only if you make time to study your bible. Its not enough to know how to pray and "kabash" and speak in tongues. If you do not know the Word, you are a powerless Christian.
Most of the answers we run from pillar to post seeking, are in the Word. The difference between you and that man of God you run to is that He/She takes time to study the word and so knows just how to apply it to your circumstance.
The word of God is miraculous. No matter your situation, no matter your prayer request, there is an answer in the word. The confidence I get from God's word is priceless. It brings me an unusual calmness, even when things do not go as I had wished. For I know His plans for me are of good and not of evil, to give me an expected end. Halleluyah!
God is in every circumstance, you just need to pause and acknowledge His presence and you would be amazed at how fast he would come through for you. He said " when thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burnt..." (Is 43:2). Brethren, no be lie!!! I have seen it and I am living it. God is in that storm. He permitted it for purpose. When you choose to respond to that storm with the consciousness of God's good will for you and his presence in your situation, the end will surely be for your good. But when you rebel against God at your trying time and loose focus, you are on your own!
Stop running from pastor to pastor, church to church. Instead, study from King James Version to New Living Translation to MSG to every other bible translation you can get. Your solution is there.
I cannot exhaust all I have in my heart in one post, definitely not. The revelations I have received from bible study is awesome, the miracles are jaw breaking. My close friends can testify to this. I cannot keep this insight to myself and so I want to encourage you this morning to make time to study God's word. Pray for grace to be consistent with bible study, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. Study it and live it, and watch your joy overflow.
Have a good weekend.
