..” YOU SHALL BE HOLY, FOR I THE LORD YOUR GOD AM HOLY.” (Leviticus 19:2 NKJV). “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, HOLY, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.” (Romans 12:1 NKJV).

We are called to be Holy because it’s required by our Heavenly Father.
1 Peter 1:16
Because it is written, Be all of you HOLY; for I am HOLY.
+What does God mean when When God said for us to be HOLY?
+HOLY or HOLINESS means Sanctified, Consecrated, and Cleansed before Reverently Dedicated to God.
+As HOLY People of God we are the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. We are also the Holiness of God in Christ Jesus.
1 Peter 2:9 reminds us of who we are:
But all of you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a HOLY nation, an exclusive (or Peculiar) people; that all of you should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.

LISTEN CHILDREN OF GOD.
+We are made HOLY through the Blood and Cross of Jesus.
+HOLINESS is also Christ in us and us in Christ.
+HOLINESS takes us into the MANIFESTED Presence and the Supernatural Power of Almighty God. Hallelujah!!!

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him.

In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory. In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.”(Ephesians 1:3‭-‬14 NKJV).

+Remember what God said In Hebrews 11:6 God said without FAITH it is Impossible to please Him.
+In the same way without HOLINESS it is Impossible to please God.
+God said in 1 Peter 1:16 “You must BE Holy for I AM Holy”
+God would not tell us to be Holy if we are not Holy. Thus confirming when we became New Creations in Christ Jesus we also became HOLY People of God in Christ Jesus.
+As we are the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus so are we the HOLINESS of God in Christ Jesus.
+With that being said we are now responsible to live the rest of our lives in God’s Holiness for the GLORY of God.
Hallelujah! and Amen!
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV

•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

“Then the people cried out to Moses, and when Moses prayed to the Lord, the fire was quenched.” (Numbers 11:2 NKJV).

“The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their cry. The face of the Lord is against those who do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all.” (Psalms 34:15‭-‬19 NKJV).

“The Lord is far from the wicked, But He hears the prayer of the righteous.” (Proverbs 15:29 NKJV).

“Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” (James 5:16 NKJV). The Lord hears the prayers of the righteous.

“Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart,..” (Luke 18:1 NKJV). “And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My Name, I will do it.” (John 14:13‭-‬14 NKJV).

Ephesians 6:18 tells us :
Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit…
+God our Heavenly Father always wants to hear from us (His Beloved Children)through our prayers unto Him.
+Prayers are one of the primary means by which we give God access to divinely intervene in our lives, the lives of other, our situations and circumstances.
+God hears our prayers, and He answers them.
1 Thessalonians 5:17 reminds us to :
Continue to pray without ceasing.
+Sometimes answers to prayers may be delayed, but though it delays it is never denied.
+Our God may not answer our prayers when we expect Him to, but He always delivers on time.
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
[ Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]

•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen!

What Is Prayer? PRAYER GOES WHERE YOU CAN’T, DO WHAT YOU CAN’T, AND GIVE GOD ACCESS TO YOUR SITUATION, SO HE CAN DO WHAT ONLY HE CAN DO.
(It’s Impact and Importance) –

Prayer is not sending God to run all your errands.

I have given you the power of My Word!
I have given you the Santity of My blood.

And announce that Jesus Christ is Lord.
The initiative rests with you!
Ask Him for things that are impossible;
Because with God nothing is impossible.
Ask Him to defeat the giants in your life.
Because our God is a giant killer.
Ask Him to divide the sea before you,
And to bury Pharoah.
And watch Him turn your enemies into fish food.
Ask Him to send fire from heaven as He did for Elijah; And He will!

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV

“Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and [physical and mental strength and ability] over all the power that the enemy [possesses]; and nothing shall in any way harm you.”(Luke 10:19 AMPC).

“But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends (the very bounds) of the earth.” (Acts 1:8 AMPC).

AUTHORITY: Spiritual Rights delegated to us by God to make decisions, give orders, and to enforce obedience and to exercise dominion over the enemy.
POWER: Supernatural, Spiritual Strength and Ability to do the Works that Jesus did.
+God always possesses the Unlimited, Infinite, and Inexhaustible Power and Authority.
+The degree of our God-given Authority and Power always corresponds to the level of maturity we demonstrate in Love, Truth, Righteousness, Holiness and Faith in God, plus our obedience to God’s Word.
+God is not holding back His Authority and Power from us. When we do those things that are always pleasing unto God ,His Authority and Power will work in us and through us.

+You are powered and empowered by God.
Ephesians 3:20 says this :
Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the POWER that works in us…
•Remember the omnipotent, miraculous, supernatural, unlimited and inexhaustible Power of God works in us, through us and for us.
•God the Holy Spirit in us produces the Power that works in us.

• This power is to be exercised and used against sickness, disease, poverty, the devil and demons and the list goes on. For examples on the demonstration of the Power of God please read the Four Gospels and the Book of Acts. You will see the Master (Jesus) in action with His Apostles and Disciples. We are His Disciples.
  •From the very beginning God gave man dominion (authority & Power) over all the earth, Genesis 1:26 & 28.
  •Man’s failure to exercise this awesome Power has caused him ALL his troubles, and some of us ignorantly blame God for our troubles.
  •For some of us let’s stay on track. For others let’s get back on track, and for all of us let’s live this life of Power that we have of God through our Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.
• Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard by which you live,in Spirit and Truth.
  +++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!
• “Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen. ” [Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]

Why do people wear a crucifix or have one in their possession. Jesus is no longer on the cross. HE IS RISEN. JESUS ALREADY DID WHAT HE CAME TO DO. Which is to redeem us from the curse of sin and bridge the gap between us and God. So that we can go boldly before the thone of grace and obtain mercy. JESUS IS THE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN. Not the pope, bishop, nor the pastor.

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” (John 3:16‭-‬19 NKJV). No offense nor ill feelings, but that scripture says, that God send His only begotten Son, not the pope, bishop, nor pastor.

“For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. FOR THERE IS ONE GOD AND ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time,..” (I Timothy 2:3‭-‬6 NKJV).

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. “The more they increased, The more they sinned against Me; I will change their glory into shame.” (Hosea 4:6‭-‬7 NKJV).

“Now after the Sabbath, as the first day of the week began to dawn, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it. His countenance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. And the guards shook for fear of him, and became like dead men. But the angel answered and said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; for He is risen, as He said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. “(Matthew 28:1‭-‬6 NKJV).

“Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. And this we will do if God permits. For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.” (Hebrews 6:1‭-‬6 NKJV).

As we reflect on what Jesus did and went through for us,this Holy week. Let’s truly serve Him by doing what this scripture says :

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:1‭-‬2 NKJV).

Romans 6:6-7, 18, 19, 22 says :
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified (put to death) with him (Christ Jesus), that the body of sin might be destroyed, that going forward we should NOT SERVE SIN.
7 For he that is DEAD is FREED FROM SIN.
18 Being then made FREE FROM SIN, all of you became the SERVANTS of RIGHTEOUSNESS.
19 …even so now yield your members SERVANTS to RIGHTEOUSNESS unto HOLINESS.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become SERVANTS to God, all of you have your FRUIT unto HOLINESS…
•Remember this Servants of righteousness always bear fruit in HOLINESS.
•Without HOLINESS no man will see God (Hebrews 12:14)

“For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time, I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting; in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing, but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good works”. (I Timothy 2:3‭-‬6‭, ‬8‭-‬10 NKJV)

“These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage. But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit.

But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And on some have compassion, making a distinction; but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh. Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:16‭-‬25 NKJV].

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV].

AS CHILDREN OF THE MOST HIGH GOD IN CHRIST JESUS, WE LACK NOTHING!
Because Philippians 4:19 tells us this :
But my God shall supply ALL YOUR NEED according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Then Ephesians 1:3 confirms that by saying:
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has BLESSED US WITH ALL SPIRITUAL BLESSINGS in heavenly places in Christ.

However, the icing on this statement is 2 Peter 1:3,which solidifies everything by saying this:
According as his divine power has given unto us ALL THINGS THAT PERTAIN UNTO LIFE AND GODLINESS, through the knowledge of him who has called us to glory and virtue:
+Rest ASSURED and rest SECURED in ALL the promises of God.
+He is our FAITHFUL Heavenly Father and PROVIDER.

“Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, and having a High Priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.”
(Hebrews 10:19‭-‬23 NKJV).

2 Corinthians 1:20 attested to this by saying:
For all the promises of God in Him (Christ Jesus) are YES, and in him Amen (surely and truly), unto the glory of God by us. Hallelujah!
+Find two or three Bible verses that promises you the desires of your heart and simply claim them, and thank God for them in the Name of Jesus, and they shall manifest in your life. Hallelujah!

“And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah’s womb. He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform. And therefore “it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Now it was not written for his sake alone that it was imputed to him, but also for us. It shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead,..” (Romans 4:19‭-‬24 NKJV).

Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for your life. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our Faith, Trust and Confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen. “Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV].

” So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. ” (Romans 8:8‭-‬17 NKJV).

“Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Matthew 26:41 NKJV).

” I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.” ( Galatians 5:16‭-‬26 NKJV).

When we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior, our flesh becomes a servant of our righteousness in Christ. Look at what Paul tells us in Romans 6:19 : “I put this in human terms because you are weak in your natural selves. Just as you used to offer the parts of your body in slavery to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer them in slavery to righteousness leading to holiness”.

“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it? Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. For he who has died has been freed from sin.

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace. ” (Romans 6:1‭-‬14 NKJV).

The question that the Holy Spirit has for todays believers is? Are you living your life in the spirit or the flesh? I pray that you will remember that you are raised with Him. As Romans 6:4 tells us “We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.” HE HAS RISEN , IS RISEN INDEED! And so are we His believers and followers.

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.”
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV].

WHAT KIND OF HEART DO YOU HAVE ? BELIEVEING OR UNBELIEVING.

“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I, the LORD, search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.” ( Jeremiah 17:9‭-‬10 KJV).

“Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, while it is said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” For who, having heard, rebelled? Indeed, was it not all who came out of Egypt, led by Moses? Now with whom was He angry forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose corpses fell in the wilderness? And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey? So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.” (Hebrews 3:12‭-‬19 NKJV).

“Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” ( Matthew 12:34‭-‬37 NKJV).

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, NEITHER SHALL ANY MAN PLUCK THEM OUT OF MY HAND. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. [John 10:27‭-‬29 KJV].

“Oh come, let us sing to the Lord! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms. For the Lord is the great God, And the great King above all gods. In His hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the hills are His also. The sea is His, for He made it; And His hands formed the dry land. Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture, And the sheep of His hand. Today, if you will hear His voice: “Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, As in the day of trial in the wilderness, When your fathers tested Me; They tried Me, though they saw My work. For forty years I was grieved with that generation, And said, ‘It is a people who go astray in their hearts, And they do not know My ways.’ So I swore in My wrath, ‘They shall not enter My rest.’ ” (Psalms 95:1‭-‬11 NKJV).

“Now, therefore,” says the Lord, “Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the Lord your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm.
(Joel 2:12‭-‬13 NKJV).

” …again He designates a certain day, saying in David, “Today,” after such a long time, as it has been said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts.” (Hebrews 4:7 NKJV).

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV].

Reasons for Studying God’s Word
2 Timothy 2:15 tells us to :
Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Jesus answered and said, “It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4)
•Why study God’s Word?

1. God said to do it, plus it shows our love, commitment and obedience to Him.
2. God wants all His Children to be learned and scholarly in His Word.
   3.The Word of God is the basis by which we know God.
   4.The Word of God is our instruction manual for living.
3. The Word of God is infallible, and the only reliable source about the past, present and the future.
4. The Word of God is fully loaded with spiritual sustenance and nutrients and all that we need that pertains to life and Godliness.

Study God’s Word
(Hebrews 5:12-14 AMP) says,to the so called seasoned Christians or believers:
For even though by this time you ought to be teaching others, you actually need someone to teach you over again the very first principles of God’s Word. You have come to need milk, not solid food. For everyone who continues to feed on milk is obviously inexperienced and unskilled in the doctrine of righteousness (of conformity to the divine will in purpose, thought, and action), for he is a mere infant [not able to talk yet]!
But solid food is for full-grown men, for those whose senses and mental faculties are trained by practice to discriminate and distinguish between what is morally good and noble and what is evil and contrary either to divine or human law.
•Ignorance to God’s Word is a liability and disadvantageous.
•The Word of God is the manual to live the life of God. As food is to your physical body so is the Word of God to your life, spirit, soul and mind.
•Make God’s Word your daily study.

God tells us in Isaiah 55:11 AMP :
…My WORD goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void (without producing any effect or change) but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
+God’s Word has to do what He said it will do.


+God wants us to experience His Word every day of our lives.
+We must give the Word of God the Highest Regard and Reverence. God and His Word are ONE.
+Disregard, Irreverence, and lack of faith in God’s Word are the reasons why many do not experience the fulfillment of God’s Word in our lives.
+Going forward, let us give the highest Regard, Reverence, and Honor to God’s Word. AMEN!!!
•Continue to let the WORD of God be the standard for our lives. Always LOVING others like Christ Jesus loves us while keeping our faith, trust, and confidence in Him.
•BLESSED you are and BLESSED you will always be and to God be all the GLORY. Amen

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen.
[Jude 1:24‭-‬25 NKJV]
