(Knowledge Of God’s Word Makes The Difference)
TO THE BIBLE: John 8:31-32
“…Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.””
LET’S TALK
Many years ago, malaria and tuberculosis were dreaded as fatal diseases, because they were said to have no cure. Once contracted, death was inevitable. But as soon as man discovered the cure to these diseases, they were no longer regarded as death sentences.
Man fears what he has no knowledge of. Once he understands it, however, his fear goes. The mystery is taken away once knowledge arrives. It’s the same thing with the matters of faith.
If we don’t understand how to apply our faith in a given situation, we become sceptical, judgmental, afraid, and unbelieving. But once we understand how it works, the confusion is removed; the mystery is dissolved.
Once you have accurate knowledge of the Word, nothing in life will mystify or discomfit you; no matter what the problem is, you just know that you’ll come out victoriously.
Those who don’t know the Word are the ones who get overwhelmed by trouble and defeated by the crises of life.
Get to know the Word. Have an insatiable appetite for God’s Word. Hosea 6:3 says, “Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord…” (KJV).
Getting the knowledge of God’s Word is one of the most important things you can do for yourself; that’s what will put you over in life, and keep you on the offensive against the adversary.

Pray:
Dear Father, I thank you for filling me with the knowledge of your Word in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. Nothing is a mystery to me, because as I meditate on your Word, the Holy Spirit unveils spiritual realities to me, enlightening the eyes of my understanding to know and apprehend my inheritance in Christ, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
