IV"},"content":{"rendered":"Good morning, dear friends!\r\n\r\nI thank God for you and your hunger for the Word of God. Hopefully, this daily word that I share with you encourages and inspires you and helps you in your daily walk with God. This is my prayer and my desire concerning all those that stop by to read \u201cDaily Word for Spiritual Edification\u201d. Today I would like to continue talking about the importance of God\u2019s Word.\r\n\r\nWe saw that God spoke through Moses that God\u2019s Word is our life. We also talked about the fact that our attitude towards the Word can either prolong our life or shorten it. We have already seen in the parables of Jesus that our attitude towards God\u2019s Word determines the strength of our foundation, our life and all the things we are building. Yesterday we also talked about the fact that God\u2019s Word is able to change our disappointments into joy, and bankruptcy into abundance. \u00a0We saw all of it in the life of Peter. I would like for us to look at the verses that talk about Peter when he was utterly failing and ready to give up.\r\n<h6>\u00abWhen He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, \u201eLaunch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.\u201d But Simon answered and said to Him, \u201eMaster, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.\u201d And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking. So they signalled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink\u201d\u00a0(Luke, 5:4-7).<\/h6>\r\nWould you like to receive so many blessings that you are not able to deal with them by yourself? How do we come to such a point in our lives? From Peter\u2019s story we see that it was the Word of God that made the difference. Verse 6 says, \u201e<strong>And when they had done this<\/strong>&#8230;\u201d It tells us that Peter and his partners did everything Jesus told them to do.\r\n\r\nSo despite human logic, despite all professional skills and any feelings, Peter and his friends obeyed and decided to do what Jesus said. The very same thing will happen in our lives when we treat the Word of God right \u2013 the Word will lift us up, deliver us, and give us direction.\r\n\r\nAs I have said before, Jesus comes into our lives through God\u2019s Word. Jesus said that the Word that He speaks is spirit and life. Therefore, when we receive His Word, it brings us life. God\u2019s Word gives us clear and precise directions. Jesus told Peter: \u00ab<strong>Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch<em>\u00bb\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>(verse 4). It was a very definite instruction, a firm direction, a clear order about the things they needed to do.\r\n\r\nBesides, God\u2019s Word fills us with inner strength. A person who has experienced a disappointment, has given up, and lost the desire to try again \u2013 that is who we see in this story. They had started to wash their nets, but then everything suddenly changed, and this very same person gained strength to do the thing he couldn\u2019t do before. It happened to Peter after he received a word from God.\r\n\r\nAlso the Word of God fills us with boldness. It inspires us and makes us brave, so that we can do what we have started but were not able to complete. God\u2019s Word brings courage into our lives.\r\n\r\nGod not only speaks His Word to us, but also goes before us to fulfil what He has said and promised. When Peter obeyed the words of Jesus, God Himself proved His Word, and afterwards Peter caught a great multitude of fish.\r\n\r\nToday God desires to tell us, dear friends, that we must not take God\u2019s Word for granted. Let\u2019s treat the Word of God like a jewel, a rare pearl, because God\u2019s Word is our life. And I assure you that God\u2019s Word will enrich your life.\r\n\r\nMay God enrich you today!\r\n\r\nPeace of God to you!\r\n\r\nPastor Rufus Ajiboy","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Today I would like to continue talking about the importance of God\u2019s Word.\r\n\r\nWe saw what God spoke through Moses that God\u2019s Word is our life.
