THE WORD-GIVEN PURPOSE
(Understand God’s Word And Get His Purpose For Life)
TO THE BIBLE John 1:1 AMPC
“In the beginning [before all time] was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself.”
LET’S TALK
As a Christian, you must have a clear understanding of the Word of God. This understanding will not only help you have a concept of the Scriptures in a way that’s far beyond the generic but also make your approach to the Lord different. Besides, until and unless you understand the Word, you won’t know how to apply it to your life and situations.
What we read in our opening scripture shows that the Word is Himself, God. When He speaks to you, He becomes to you and in you what He says. Every time you study it, you feed your spirit, and you’re able to live the life of the Word. You then discover that your Christian life every day is meant to be full of joy and excitement.
Your life has a purpose, and that purpose of God for you is revealed and becomes more apparent as you fellowship with Him. By His Spirit, the Lord will grant you insight through the Scriptures. He’ll bring your thoughts to specific areas that He wants you to know now that you can apply to your life. Then, His wisdom will leap out of the message and inundate your heart, and you find that you’re walking the path of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Hallelujah!
The Word will cause you to be enlightened, informed, refreshed, strengthened and graced for greater effectiveness in all you do, and all that God would have you do in the coming year and beyond. You’d find yourself walking in the path that He’s chosen for you before the foundation of the world.

Pray
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for the understanding of your Word. As I give myself to the study of the Word, I’m enlightened, refreshed, informed and strengthened. My mind is receptive to the corrections, instructions and direction in it, as I walk in the paths you preordained for me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
