CONSULT THE WORD OF GOD!
2 Timothy 3:15-17 NASB
and that from childhood you
have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads
to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. [16] All Scripture is
inspired by God and beneficial for teaching, for rebuke, for correction, for
training in righteousness; [17] so that the man or woman of God may be fully
capable, equipped for every good work.
Consultation is a necessity
in life, in certain quarters, we can’t get any sort of services without
consultation with experts.
Consultation is the action
or process of formally consulting or discussing: a dialogue or conference
meeting with an expert, such as a medical doctor, to seek advice.
Times are uncertain and
chaotic and the world as we know it, is turned upside down, the major weapon of
the enemy now is fear, but glory to God, we’re not of them that fear because
the Lord is our Refuge and Rock.
According to 2 Timothy 1:7,
we have the grace to overcome fear with love. We have nothing to fear but fear
itself. When we consult the word of God, we’ll find the solution and answers we
need.
The divine writing of the
scriptures is profitable for doctrine.
Paul stresses the authority of the Scripture. The divine origin of
Scripture is the reason for its power to convert souls according to verse
fifteen and its usefulness in training.
God gave us two ways of
obtaining godly instructions, one is wisdom with revelation and the other is His
written prophetic word.
God's revelation comes from
His presence, where we receive revelation for the next level and stage that is
particular to us individually and probably for general consumption. The
presence of God and the word of God is where you receive instructions and plans
for battles in your part of the overall war for righteousness on the earth.
It’s through prayer that God
gives a fresh word specific to our current situation, whatever it may be.
The Lord will not hide
information from the saints according to Amos 3:7, He is a just God who reveals
what His plans are but only if we consult Him in His word. We can’t hide anything
from God says Jeremiah 23:24, but we hope that if God doesn't see, He won’t
know.
Rather than consult man for
help on what we’re experiencing, consult the Lord and see His hand move over
that issue.
Whatever our questions, the
challenge and problems, the Word of God is the answer. The Bible is a living
document. What’s so amazing is that God can use His Word to get a personal and
specific message right to you. All you need to do is have a listening ear and a
perceiving heart. Spend time in His Word and allow Him to give you counsel
about those things you desire to know, Proverbs 23:12.
Spending quality time in
studing the word gives us clarity in confusing situations, encourages, empowers
and strengthens us in weakness, provides direction for decisions, and bring
comfort and assurance, even in troubled times. Regular consultation with God’s Word leads to
spiritual growth and maturity.
Ephesians 2:8 says God took
the steps to provide us with the grace needed for the race, you do not have to
work to follow Christ nor work to seek grace, consulting the word will help you
take your place not an as unworthy sinner but as a saved and redeemed saint.
The Lord is always speaking through the pages of the bible, but you must open
the pages of your heart to allow Him to write what He wants for you and not
what you want for yourself. Now is the best time to begin consulting the word
of God, remember the one who makes God their refuge will not be harmed as the
Lord has commissioned Angels to watch over you. Consult the word-therein lies
all you need.
PRAYER: Father, thank You
for giving us Your Word as our guide and counselor. Help me to always consult
Your Word in every situation, to listen for Your voice, and to obey Your
instructions. Let Your Word be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. In
Jesus’ name, amen.
