In Matt 4:4, Jesus
said, "It is written: ’Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word
that comes from the mouth of God." John 6:63 says, “It is the spirit
that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you,
they are spirit, and they are life.”
Isa 60:1
says, “Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen
upon thee.” To shine, there must be light. No one shines without light. And
what is the light? Psa 119:130 says, “The entrance of thy words giveth light;
it giveth understanding unto the simple.” The light refers to spiritual
illumination that is only derivable from dwelling in the word of God.
The word of
God is a seed. It is what controls all forms of increases. Abraham heard the
word of God, acted upon it and prospered. Elijah heard the word of God, acted
upon it and was never hungry during famine.
For your
health to prosper, you have to know what His promises on health are. For your
home to be peaceful, and harmonious, you have to be soaked in the revelation of
the Word of God on marriage. For you to prosper, you have to dig deep into the
word of God to know what His revelations as regards finances are. Heb 1:3b
says, “and upholding all things by the word of his power.”
Col. 3:16 says, Let the word of Christ dwell in you
richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and
hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to God. The
indwelling Christ is a speaking Christ, and we need to let the word spoken by
Christ to dwell in us richly.
To do this
doesn’t merely mean to memorize the Word of God; we need to actively allow and
let the word of Christ dwell in us richly. We need to go from being a reader
and hearer to being a doer.
