Spiritual Growth #35

He Sends His Word

The Lord said I will send my Word to heal them.  Who is The Lord sending this Word to?

 You and I!

On our spiritual journey, we must become well acquainted with the living word He sends. Why? Because this is the word you and I are to act on for the benefit of others. When we become spiritual men and women, we are to become ministers of the living word. The word does not come from us, it comes from God and we are to speak it and act on it for the benefit of others.

When we receive the word from God and do not speak it or act upon it we are in effect burying the treasure or covering the light with a basket.

James 1:22-25

But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves.  For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his ??natural face ?in a mirror;  for once he has looked at himself and gone away, ?he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was.  But one who looks intently at the perfect law, ?the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but ??an effectual doer, this man will be ?blessed in ?what he does.

You that have the Holy Spirit have no excuse; the Lord has opened our eyes and our ears; we can now hear and understand what God is saying to us. He expects us to share with others what He has freely revealed to us. We are not to bury it but invest it in the lives of others that are in need.

Acts 1:8

         but you will receive power ?when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be ?My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and ?Samaria, and even to ?the remotest part of the earth.”

We have been given the power from the Holy Spirit to witness through the gifts of the Holy Spirit to the world around us. I believe that if we want to grow and mature as spiritual men and women it is very important for us to use everything God has given us to do that work
