GOD’s word is quick and power and sharper than any
two-edged sword. Hebrews 4 vs. 12: For
the word of GOD is alive and active. Sharper than any double- edged sword, it
penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the
thoughts and attitudes of the heart. GOD’s words are pure words; as silver
tried in a furnace. Psalm 12 vs. 6: The
words of the LORD are pure words; as silver tried in a furnace of earth,
purified seven times. Work means something on which effort is expended.
Effort is an endeavor. It is inputting an action. GOD’s word shouldn’t just be
read, but must be acted on. It is essential we act and do what we profess in
GOD’s word. Many read the word, but don’t act according to the word. GOD told
Joshua in Joshua 1 vs. 7 (NIV): Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to
obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or
the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. GOD’s words are his
law and act; He expects us to do all that is written therein. We shouldn’t bend
GOD’s word to our taste. We shouldn’t turn from it to the left or right. GOD’s
word should be our compass which gives us direction and bearing. Whatever is
not found in GOD’s word is contrary to GOD’s will and way. David wrote in Psalm 119 vs. 105 -106: Your word is a lamp
to my feet, and a light to my path. I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I
keep your righteous judgments. We are to perform GOD’s word and keep it
just as David wrote. GOD‘s word should be our lamp and this will keep us from
stumbling.
WORK ON THE WORD 2! David knew the essence of working on GOD’s word. He wrote in Psalm 33 vs. 4 (NIV): For the word of the LORD is right and true, he is faithful in all he does. He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye. Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24: But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...
