The Word of the Lord
Scripture 2 Kings 3:12 And Jehoshaphat said, “The word of the LORD is with him.” So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat and the king of Edom went down to him.
Observation: In those days it must have been rare that the word of the Lord was with someone, but we have the word of the Lord accessible to everyone. However it is a choice each one of us has to make, are we going to learn the word of the Lord or not. Once the word is implanted in our hearts we will know what we should do. We make think at times we are not sure what decision to make only because we want our way even though God’s word is clear. What an honor it is to have the word of God and we should share that word with others. Can you imagine a world where everyone knew the word of God and lived to honor that. One day it will be so, that will be the day we enter Heaven.
Application: I need to study each day God’s word and pray how He wants me to use it. I need to share the power of God’s word with others and use that wisdom to do what is right in God’s eyes. I need to put aside my personal desires and be focused on God’s will in my life, God’s perfect will. It won’t be long before I will have to stand in front of my God and give account on how I lived my life and what I did with the talents and knowledge God has bestowed on me. I want that time to be a time of rejoicing and not regret.
Prayer: My Lord take me deeper into your word and put it in my heart so whenever you open an opportunity for me to use it I will. I’m your servant and messenger if you so desire, use me to do your will and to give me a resume that you would be proud of. All of my love, your servant Mark.
