The word for today is - Approach!

The word for today is -  Approach!
 
Some people don't know how to approach the word of God, just come to Him and speak,Heavenly Father,I believe in you, I need you! Then you should get a bible, pick up the word of God and open the book of life.The word of God is a living word, it will speak to your heart. Here are some principles to guide you,so how do we approach the Bible so that we don’t get discouraged or led astray? We must pray or ask God first to give us wisdom before we approach His Word. We must be patient in reading the Scripture,and we must be willing or open to learn.You see the Holy Spirit is willing ,but the flesh is not,read Romans 8:7,Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.We must submit to God, read James 4:7,Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.When the Scripture is speaking, it is speaking to your Spiritual man.You do know that God is a Spirit, right? So, anything that comes from God is spiritual ! We should also try to learn from others who have journeyed through the Scriptures before us.This is why God has ordained preachers and teachers.We need others to help teach us also; otherwise why would he give some people with the gift of teaching and preaching? God doesn’t make mistakes, even down to the littlest details, we need one another.We need to remember that the Scripture is the final authority, it is the word of God. If somebody says anything that contradicts Scripture, the Scripture is right and they are wrong! This is why it is important to always give Scripture references when making Biblical claims and assertions.We need daily meals so our body has its needed energy and we need Spiritually food, we need our Spiritual food which is the Word of God daily also! We must read it and think upon it regularly, just like eating physical food. What ever the Holy Spirit will reveal to us, it is for us to grow in the knowledge and understanding of His word. Let us approach His word freely ! Jesus has made a way for us to enter into the throne of grace, read Hebrews 4:16,Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. Let us approach the throne of grace freely and boldly! The Holy Scriptures are the word of God! Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
