Nehemiah 8:8 NLT
Good morning fellow disciples.
WORD is defined as the expressed or manifested mind and will of God.
The expressed mind and will of God have been recorded in the Holy scriptures that we call the Bible. These writings are what we need to live the life that God has ordained for us. God that has allowed His WORD to be transmitted through the ages in writing and through the oral traditions.
Sometimes however God’s WORD is not easy to understand. Sometimes we may not be in possession of God’s written WORD and we either don’t know His WORD or we forget what is written in it.
When we hear God’s WORD, sometimes we need it to be explained clearly. Have you ever been in the position where you have heard God’s WORD repeatedly but you do not understand it?
Have you had God’s WORD explained to you?
Are you able to explain God’s WORD so that others can understand it?
How are you empowered to explain God’s WORD?
Was it taught and explained to you by someone else?
Did you get your understanding from the Holy Spirit who lives within you?
Disciple of Christ, explain God’s WORD to others so that they can know His expressed or manifested mind and will!
Prayer: Father God, thank You for Your WORD! Thank you for placing in us your Holy Spirit who teaches us how to explain Your WORD. Father God as we make ourselves available to You, use us to show others Your expressed and manifested mind and will through Your WORD, and the interpretation that we give to others. Amen.
