Go for knowledge 2

“And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.” 
Acts 20:32(KJV)

Our opening shows you that it is the Word of God that will give you your inheritance. This means that without the Word of God, you would not be able to take a hold of your inheritance.

I heard the story of a Pastor whose church was not growing, so he took out some time to go and study his Bible. As he studied, God showed him the secret of the multitude dimension of ministry. As he applied those principles God showed him, his church began to grow indeed to multitude dimensions. The church has grown to the point that sometimes in their services, they have up to twenty thousand people as first timers. Where did he get the knowledge that led to such growth? He located the knowledge for church growth from inside the Bible.

Child of God no matter what you do, I encourage you to go for knowledge of the Word of God. In  John 5:39 Jesus said, “Search the scriptures …” Paul said to Timothy in 2 Timothy 3:16-17, “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.”

Initially we saw from Acts 20:32 that the Word of God will give you an inheritance, and now we see again in 2 Timothy 3:17 that the Word of God is able to furnish you, thereby giving you all the supplies you need for all good works. Praise God.

PRAYER
Dear Father I ask for a release of the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of you towards me today in Jesus Name. Amen.

For further study read:
Acts 6:4, Acts 17:11, Ephesians 3:3-5, 1 Timothy 4:13,
2 Timothy 2:15,

DOING THE WORD
I encourage you to create time to study the Word of God. You can read a chapter in the book of Proverbs everyday and write out what you learn each day that can improve your life.
