Psalms 138:2 says: The LORD GOD has exalted His eternal WORD above all things including
His terrible and awesome Name! This is mind boggling; the God of heaven exalts His WORD
even above Himself! The WORD of God is the Book we call The Bible, all the 66 books from
Genesis to Revelation are God inspired writings showing His law, statutes, ways and dealings
with humanity. This book is the very mind and heart of God. Our God the FATHER can't do
anything outside His WORD. Our LORD JESUS CHRIST for all eternity was known as the
Eternal WORD until He chose to put on human fresh forever to be 100% God yet 100% Man for
our redemption and salvation. The Holy Spirit also can't and will not do anything outside the
parameters of The Written WORD of God.
In Genesis it is recorded that in the presence of chaos, The SPIRIT of God hovered over all the
messy waters but He did nothing until The WORD of God was released. He then became active
and performed the WORD; the result was the perfect creation! Forget the theories of
philosophers like Darwin with mere humanistic fallen minds. Oh the wisdom of man is utter
foolishness in the eyes of God. Hebrews11:3 says we understand that everything God made He
framed it by His Holy WORD. The first creation, including man, was created in the same way.
Even after the fall of man into sin and depravity, the WORD came, entered a womb of a virgin
and was birthed into the world. The WORD lived among us and at the age of 33 died on the
cross for our sins. He rose again back to life on the third day and ascended back to His former
abode. The Holy Spirit was then sent to us to perform the bidding of this Mighty Word.
The greatest of all God's creation is the "new creation" when The Word by the power of the
Spirit of God enters into the hearts and souls of men, changing them into sons of God - born of
the incorruptible Word which lives and abides forever. So brethren if you are born again, you are
born of the Word of God, you carry the nature and character of God. The Bible is the source of
all wisdom, law, civilisation, creativity, morality and justice. It's not surprising that this book and
Christianity civilised the western world. But then they threw the Book out of their schools and
public places. The swearing over it in their courts and on inaugurations is ridiculous as they don't
even know what's written there in much less obeying it! This has turned the west into mere
savages (of course not all, there is still God's faithful ones over there). Homosexuality, abortions,
child trafficking, sex enslaving of young girls, pervasions of all sorts openly portrayed in their
movies. We hear of nasty cities like Las Vegas probably worse than Sodom and Gomorrah. They
have turned the Lord's day into a day for sports and entertainment and carnal amusements. These
that in the past evangelised the whole world and called themselves Christian nations, have they
not turned into savages? Why? They have kicked out the Book! Oh Lord have mercy. Personally
am not as concerned about the Bible in public places as I am on whether it is in the homes of
professing believers. If we don't read it in our homes why should we complain when they kick it
out of schools?
The Bible must be our law, constitution, practice, lifestyle and culture. Anything contrary to the
Word I must hate and trash no matter who else advocates for it. This book must be the
foundation of my life, the philosophy of my entire life - marriage, parenthood, my dealings in
career and business; my entire Christian life must be anchored on the WORD of God. This Book
must be our final authority, the only fear of my life. Oh I must reverence this Book, highly praise
it and esteem it above all literature.
There are two basic things to do with the Bible: Believe it and Behave it! I join Kenneth E.
Hagin that great American preacher of the yesteryear in saying "The Bible is God speaking to
me, I am what it says I am, I have what it says I have, I can do what it says I can do, I am a
believer of The Word and am not a doubter." The WORD is my present, my future, my direction,
the song in my heart, my delight, it's laws are sweet to my heart, it's warnings my fear, it's
promises my nourishment. Hallelujah! So I must believe and act/live it.
Oh this book saved my soul from hell, transformed my life, healed me of diseases, delivered me
from depressive and suicidal thoughts, put life peace and joy in my heart. I don't think there is
anyone happier than me in the whole world. Glory to God! I wouldn't trade my walk with God
with anyone on this planet. Am living in the ever increasing fullness of the blessing and presence
of God. This all because of my commitment to The WORD of God.
Someone may ask, how can I study my Bible? Well I believe there is no rigid rules, just come to
the Holy Spirit to be taught in a personal way. But I will give my simple suggestions of how I
study my Bible.
1. Read through The Bible cover to cover from Genesis to Revelation just to familiarise
yourself with the book. You can't believe and behave what you don't know! If you are a
beginner start with the New Testament to know more about JESUS CHRIST our Lord,
2. He is the Chief theme of the Book. Search out different topics and themes in the Bible
like: Love, Holiness, Obedience, Hell, Heaven, Judgment, the fear of The LORD,
Blessing and so on. Get all Scriptures on the topic chosen from Genesis to Revelation,
write them in a book and read them over and over again to get a broad view of the topic.
4. The last one is meditation. Our shallow artificially fast generation has lost the ancient art
of meditation and contemplation. This is not the Eastern world yoga and fallen practices
which is basically yielding your soul to devils. But it's rather a quiet concentration of
yourself and by the help of the Spirit of God, you carefully ponder upon a portion of
Scriptures, muttering it slowly beneath your breath, giving emphasis upon each word,
allowing yourself to be taught and illuminated by the Spirit of God, bringing to your soul
the meaning of such a passage and the experiential reality of it to your soul. This brings a
burning with your heart and a joy unspeakable. You have to find time and space for this
without distractions. You enter into the stories of the Bible as an active participant like in
a movie, you feel what they felt, laugh with them, repent with them, doing anything you
are reading with your mind and heart. This is a lost art I pray we rediscover. You cannot
go deeper in God with our present superficial and surface world focusing more on our 5
senses neglecting the unseen world - the spiritual world. We need to go back to the
practice of the ancient Christian mystics who knew and cultivated the interior life.
In summary, I challenge you to put the word of God as number one in your life. Read it over and
over again, not as an academic book but as your heart's nourishment. You don't have to
memorise Scriptures, only focus on obeying, doing and living the Word. May the Bible come
alive to us. May God raise Bible teachers in our day, may family Bible studies start in our
homes, may we honour this book; exalting it above all things, studying it, living it without any
excuses.
We will all be judged by God on how we have treated His Word. He has given us His Word what
have we done with it?
We must read it, study it, confess it, sing it, write it, preach it and above do and live it. How
people in the past suffered, were tortured, martyred, while labouring to give us this book in an
ordinarily common language. Are we honouring their sacrifice and blood? We have it in all sorts
of forms: hardcopy (my only recommendation), on phones, computers, but are we reading it?
Are we utilising the privileges we have? There are believers in some countries in our modern
times that have no access to the Bible. Are we faithful with our freedom?
Oh Lord burn within us again with the hunger for your Word, teach us how to live your Word.
May we be without sleep until we have studied your word, may this book be more real to us than
food for man shall not live by bread alone but by every Word that precedes from the mouth of
God. Amen.
Yours in CHRIST
