The Word of God works in us according to the level of our understanding

Greetings to you, brothers and sisters!

 

One of the keys for our advancement is the Word of God and our correct attitude towards it.
I am very glad that I can share the Word from the Lord every day. Nevertheless, this Word will benefit and produce fruit only in the life of those who will dissolve this Word in faith and will put effort to comprehend and use this Word in their lives. (Hebrews 4:2)

Remember: The Word of God works in us according to the level of our understanding.

 

In the parable of the sower, it is said that they who brought forth the fruit were the ones who heard the word and understood it. Some brought fruit thirty-, sixty-, and hundredfold, according to their understanding.

 

«But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty..» (Мatth. 13: 23).

 

We have been given the ability to know the secrets of the Heavenly Kingdom, but if we do not put effort, we will lose what we already know.

 

«And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath..» (Мatth. 13:10-12).

God will lift us up through His Word and godly instructions (Exodus 2:1-5); let us walk in the light of His revelations!
We will see each other on the top!

  • What are the grounds or foundations of favour? II

    Through faith in Jesus Christ we become clothed in his righteousness and nature. In the our spirit we have the perfect character of the Almighty God even though we do not become perfect in our actions immediately after becoming followers of Jesus. We reflect God’s life, character and thoughts more and more in our lives to that extent to which we submit ourselves to the new nature in our spirit. Our daily submission to God’s nature and character in us is what I call practical righteousness that qualifies us for God’s favour.
