Today’s
memory verse says, “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper
than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and
spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discemer of the thoughts and
intents of the heart” (Hebrews 4:12). If you have a sharp knife in your
kitchen, and never get hold of it for your use, your food is not going to cut
itself. It is the same with our Bible which is loaded with God’s words. Your
situation will not change until you take up God’s word and apply it to that
situation.
Hebrews 4:12 explains that the word of God is even sharper than
a sword; it is called the Sword of the Spirit. It penetrates deeper than the
physical sword; it is powerful; it is truth; it judges thoughts and intentions;
it exposes our innermost thoughts and desires; it helps us to distinguish
between right and wrong, so that we can live sin-free lives; and it can be used
as an offensive or defensive weapon against our enemies.
If
you are lacking in the knowledge of God’s word, how will you fight your enemies?
How will you fight the good fight of faith? You must study the word (2 Tim.
2:15), and meditate on it day and night (Joshua 1:8). Furthermore, do not stop
at only acquiring the knowledge of God’s word. You must take up the Sword when
necessary. Apply the word when the situation demands it. Sometimes some
seemingly unfavourable situations leave you so drained that you do not have the
energy, strong will or motivation to apply the word. You must understand that
you are not to rely on your strength alone. By strength shall no man prevail (1
Samuel 2:9). Rely on the Holy Spirit at such times, as He is our Strengthener.
Beloved,
in season and out of season, when things are pleasant in your life and when
they are not, study memorise and confess God’s word daily. Make it the object
of your meditation. Take the Sword of the Spirit and prevail over all your
enemies.
