Living on God's Word

How do we cherish what God reveals to us? Do we hold on to it tightly or let it fall? Do we write it down and pray over it asking Him to do what He said He would until it happens.
Jesus said "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matt 4:4)". Deut. 8:3 was the scripture Jesus quoted. The context of it was talking about obedience to God and being humbled by living on manna. God wants us to keep all of His commands. He is testing our hearts to see if we will. He is humbling us to rely completely on Him.
He provides manna from heaven for us to live on. Jesus is the Bread of Life. He is the Word of Life. God is feeding us when He speaks to us. We have to be humble enough to hear His Word, accept His word, and bear fruit. He reveals His Word so we will bear fruit. It needs to be sown into our hearts. Pray that God would prepare your heart. He wants you to bear fruit. He wants you to grow. Don't let His Seed fall to the ground. Jesus wants to speak to you. He wants to whisper in your ear. He's calling you. He wants you to hold onto what He says as a treasure.
Remember the Word that goes out from God's mouth: it will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it. Hold tightly to the words given to you. God is moving to accomplish His desire and purpose. Pray over them. Refresh your Spirit and heart with them. May you see Him move mightily in your life.

Love in Christ,

Chad

as you move in the realm of mysteries, He will give you joy to go in deep. You will not have a slave mind-set. Slaves have no rights, no access to the KING. Revelation is for a son, access to the throne, get down son, party in love that's wher it is at. Good job giant killer
