CHRIST IS REVEALED BY THE WORDS OF GOD

Matthew 24:28: "For wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together."


The words of God are the revelation of the presence of Christ in a man, anytime the man goes to the scriptures, the words of God will be unveiled to his heart regularly. We have the scriptures with us to reveal Christ to us so that we can walk with Him from the knowledge of His person in our spirit. Walking with Christ is based on the revelational knowledge of His person by the Spirit of God and not on our ignorance of Him. We will be able to gain knowledge about Christ in our hearts through His words and not in our brains so that we can walk with Him. To know Christ is to walk with Him and fulfil the kingdom's purpose with Him. The regular way to know Christ day to day is through our fellowship with the words of God. Those who fellowship with the words of God fellowship with Christ in the spirit. Christ hides beside the scriptures to reveal Himself to us so that we can walk with Him through the light of His word. He that has the light of the knowledge of Christ in his spirit has seen Christ,  and the knowledge of Christ that he has in his spirit will abide with him. The knowledge of Christ through the light of the scriptures is an encounter with the Spirit of God, and the experience will never leave the heart of the man that has it. It is an encounter that the recipient of it can always share with others and will always be fresh in the ears of the hearers of it and will be a blessing to them. The revelation of Christ through the scriptures to our hearts is the revelation of the power of His strength. It is the knowledge of great things that He is capable of doing for us and with us if we can believe Him. The manifestation of the power of Christ to do great things for us is dependent on the knowledge of His person that we have in our hearts through the scriptures. That is why the scripture says that the people that do know their God shall be strong and do exploit. If anyone wants to do great exploits in the world, he needs to get close to the scriptures and fellowship with the words of God regularly, and he will have the vision and the faith to do great works.

Power of Persistence

Power of Persistence  And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. Judges 8:4 Persistence is essential for pursuing a significant purpose and achieving a vision that seems beyond our strength. Despite their exhaustion, Gideon and his soldiers continued their pursuit of their enemies, demonstrating the power of a clear and compelling goal to inspire perseverance in fulfilling a dream. Persistence allows us to remain consistent and steadfast in our pursuits. Without a great vision, we may struggle to rise from complacency and actively seek God with the dedication needed for constant prayer, which builds a strong spirit, deepens our faith, enhances our understanding of the Word of God, and helps us grow in alignment with our vision.  God does not use casual seekers for the advancement of His kingdom; He relies on those who are consistent and committed. Persistence in prayer and faith is key to receiving an...

You are worthy O Lord..

You are worthy O Lord.. The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honour, and power; for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure, they are and were created." — Revelation 4:10-11 Even with the privilege of sitting around God's throne, these elders demonstrate a deep sense of humility before Him. When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to God, the elders do not remain seated, proud of their crowns. Instead, they rise from their seats and fall down before God. In worship, they lay their crowns at His feet, proclaiming that He alone is worthy of glory, honour, and power. The crowned elders understand that there is only one King, and that King is God, deserving of all glory despite the honour they have been given. Like these elders, we must not allow the privileges, gifts, bles...

The Word became Answer

Image
The Word became Answer RSV, John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father." The Word, or Logos, became human as God's response to our need for salvation, addressing all our spiritual needs and the limitations we face as humans. The written word, the scriptures, is also provided by God to meet our needs. However, many struggle to find answers to their challenges in the scriptures due to their lack of understanding of them. But those who genuinely seek truth from the scriptures and are willing to obey God's guidance will find that the scriptures are revealed to them, providing a word from God. Casual reading of the scriptures will not yield meaningful benefits. Our comprehension of the scriptures plays a significant role in how we apply them and the guidance we receive. Therefore, we must not only read the scriptures but also study them carefully to uncove...
