Greetings to you, my dear friends! Grace and peace to you from Father God and our Lord Jesus Christ!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God\u2019s Word is treasure we must treat right; through it we have to be established in the eternal life given to us by God. It says in the Bible:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God has hidden many matters in His Word. God\u2019s precious truths are hidden away and concealed. And only the one who searches for them finds them. The Bible says that you do not through pearls before the swine, because they can\u2019t appreciate them. So, God hides His pearls from worldly people; He conceals His treasures, His wisdom and knowledge. He hides these matters from carnal believers as well. But the glory of kings (and you and I are these kings) is to search the matters God has hidden. When we search them out, we discover them for ourselves and it brings glory into our lives. All the things that are necessary to succeed in all areas of life are contained in the Bible. But they are concealed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You will agree that many people read the Bible and do not understand it. We read in Luke how one day Jesus came close to Jerusalem:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God desires to reveal to us that things that have been hidden. He has entrusted us His treasure \u2013 His Word. We know that controversy that exists in our lives disappears when we start reading the Word. Many believers know that the Bible is God\u2019s Word, yet they neglect it and do not read it as they should. It is wrong! They are many reasons people do not read the Word: laziness, lack of creativeness, spiritual attacks etc. In order to have joy while reading the Word we must understand the reason we have it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It says in the Bible that God\u2019s Word is light<\/strong>. If you need light every day, then you need to read the Word every day, so that your life is filled with God\u2019s light. Walking in the Word brings light into my way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Bible says that the whole world lies in darkness. God gave us His Word to lead and guide us, since we live among darkness. When we walk in darkness, we stumble and fall. God gives us light through His Word. So when I read the Word, I understand that this light<\/strong> belongs to me, so I turn it on. We read the Word to receive enlightment, knowledge and understanding of the matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Besides, it is written that God\u2019s Word is water<\/strong>. We use water every day. In the spiritual sense God\u2019s Word is water. God\u2019s intention is for you to use this spiritual water every day. It cleanses us from the things that defile our lives. Living in this world we get defiled. In one of his Psalms David wrote that God\u2019s Word keeps him clean from doings of people. When we look into the Word and apply it to our lives, it cleanses us. God\u2019s Word has purifying effect on us. So if we want to stay clean, we must read the word as often as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is also written that God\u2019s Word is a mirror<\/strong> and spiritual food<\/strong>, but we will talk about it tomorrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n May God bless every one of you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Pastor Rufus Ajiboye<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"God\u2019s Word is treasure we must treat right; through it we have to be established in the eternal life given to us by God.
