PROFIT FROM THE WORD

TOPIC: PROFIT FROM THE WORD

SCRIPTURE: For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it - Hebrews 4:2

MEMORY VERSE: Isaiah 48:17

DIGGING DEEEP: Our anchor Scripture reveals that the word of God is designed to pull up profit out of our lives. Infact mere listening to the word of God must turn our lives around. To profit means that:
a. The word of God has the capacity to increase your value and worth: Encounter with the word of God is able to balance, change and improve your whole life. People who knew you before must be able to see the difference the word has and is creating in your life.
b. When you trade (engage) with the word benefits comes into your life: In other words wordlessness is equal to gainlessness. For example, when you trade with the word of God, it extracts your fear and gives you faith, it removes your pain and gives you joy, it removes any bleakness in your life and destiny, then turns it into great possibilities and so on.
Why is it that people don't enjoy profit from the word of God?
1. Wrong Approach: When you approach the Bible as a religious book or creed you can't profit from it.
2. Familiarity With The Word: Many are so used to the Bible that they can't access life from it again. I have even heard Pastors say "well, i have been preaching this Bible for years now and there's nothing you can tell me that i don't know." I agree that you might be acquainted with the letter but certainly not with the Spirit. Understand that information is not as powerful as revelation and Illumination.
3. Refusing The Entrance Of The Word: It is the entrance of the word that gives light. For instance you can never be satisfied by merely inhaling the aroma of a delicious meal. It is the entrance of the food that ends hunger.
4. No Faith Syndrome: The efficacy of the word is activated when it is mixed with faith. If you mix the word with doubt or you will recieve no result. The word only yields when mixed with faith. Faith is the fertilizer at the root of God's word in our lives.
5. Carelessness with the word: The word of God should not be taken casually nor lightly.
Finally, it is the entrance of God's word into your spirit that generates all the difference.

PRAYER: O Lord, may your word yield fruit in me and make me different anywhere i find myself in Jesus' name.
