HIS WILL AND PURPOSE ARE EXPRESSED IN HIS WORD

TUESDAY, OCT. 28TH, 2014
-PASTOR CHRIS

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children (Hosea 4:6).

The will, nature, and purpose of God are revealed in His Word. To neglect the Word is to be in the dark about the will of the Father, and how He wants you to live. This is one reason you must know the Word for yourself. He said, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge”: the knowledge of God’s Word. So you see, God’s people can fail in life, if they’re ignorant; not because the Word is void of power. Jesus said in Mark 7:13, You have made the Word of God of non-effect by your traditions.
People who live by the traditions and wisdom of men make the Word of non-effect in their own lives; they short-circuit the power of the Word of God, making it unproductive for them. God’s Word always has power, but it loses its effectiveness in the life of the one who tries to rationalize it with human information or sense knowledge.
Let the Word be your standard, and “check system” in upgrading your life from glory to glory. You need this to become the man or woman God destined you to be. Some people have been Christians for years but don’t have information about God’s plan and purpose for their lives. They’re not sure what the will of God is concerning anything. God’s Word is His will expressed; which is why you must invest time to study and meditate on the Word, to know your inheritance in Christ.
As you get to know your heritage in Him, you also learn to take possession of what the Word of God says belong to you. Furthermore, you're also able to understand the purpose for your inheritance in Him, the reason He has blessed you so much, and how to use the blessing rightly.

CONFESSION:
Thank you Lord for granting me to be filled with the knowledge of your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. Thus, I’m able to discern and walk in your perfect will at all times. My life is the fulfilment of the destiny that you've ordained for me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

2 Peter 1:5-10 Living Bible (TLB)
5 But to obtain these gifts, you need more than faith; you must also work hard to be good, and even that is not enough. For then you must learn to know God better and discover what he wants you to do. 6 Next, learn to put aside your own desires so that you will become patient and godly, gladly letting God have his way with you. 7 This will make possible the next step, which is for you to enjoy other people and to like them, and finally you will grow to love them deeply. 8 The more you go on in this way, the more you will grow strong spiritually and become fruitful and useful to our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But anyone who fails to go after these additions to faith is blind indeed, or at least very shortsighted and has forgotten that God delivered him from the old life of sin so that now he can live a strong, good life for the Lord. 10 So, dear brothers, work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen, and then you will never stumble or fall away.
