Psalms 119:11 ( thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee)
There is a deficiency of enough nutrients of the word of God in supply to the souls of men in this generation, which has resulted in Christians
experiencing spiritual malnutrition that is impacting their spiritual well-being in negative ways.
Instead of studying the word to our own advantage, we keep on patronizing the peddlers who have diluted the word to make it less effective and not protective of the souls.
When your soul is lacking in enough supplies of the word (because the word of God is the food for the souls) your spiritual life will be retarded and fall short of what you’re created to be and far from what you have been redeemed to become.
This is what is called spiritual malnutrition as a result of a lack of sufficient food for the soul.
God released enough of his word and the revelation of divine message for us in this generation, as the kingdom of Satan is advancing in their demonic technology, God is also increasing the host of heaven to fight on behalf of the saints based on his spoken Word.
Instead of finding solutions through the power of the spirit, we keep on minus and adding to the word that’ll keep us in mediocre positions in our spiritual journey, this kind only energizes the flesh and disarms the spirit.
Word peddlers have taken over the church of God, trying to dish out junk for whoever is too busy to study the Bible themselves according to the leading of the spirit.
These peddlers have removed the most important nutrients that bring growth in the souls, that is total obedience to the law of God, which brings holiness to the souls to make it become junk.
Instead of the church studying and understanding the word through the help of the Holy Spirit, they rely on diluted messages released from the altar, thereby lacking enough that see them through their Christian journey.
Whatever they interpret it to be is none of their business, instead of them do as the Bereans who after listening and went home to check their Bibles if what they were taught was the truth.
This causes spiritual deficiency and makes our spiritual growth retarded.
The Bible says, Your word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee.
There is no way you will have enough of the word that you will easily fall into temptation.
The way lack of vitamins brings damage to your body system, so also insufficient Word of God brings damage to the souls, junk may bring fatness to the body, but the result is leanness of the souls.
Not to mention when they have removed important nutrients from it to present what is less important to your spiritual advancement.
This is what is attracting spiritual mortal sickness, that makes Christians comfortable in sin, and introducing the spirit of it doesn’t matter to an entire congregation.
The devil knows what many Christians don’t know about God’s word, he knows that it’s their spiritual weapons, the sword of the Spirit that cuts down all imaginations and renders all his antics impotent ,and protects us from his weapon, so he devises means to make it blunt so that it’ll be less effective to protect the carriers.
He removed man’s responsibilities that’ll make it effective and left the side of God, which Christians always confess but lack efficiency, as a double-edged sword, all the sides must be applied to make it functional.
Jesus Christ overcame Satan by applying the word so also believers who are currently in battles with the forces of corruption that are determined to smear their souls.
If the Word must be effective in Christian life, he must detest what God hates and love what he loves, this activity is what empowers the sword and sharpens it to turn into a double-edged sword that cuts asunder the works of the flesh, and brings every disobedience under the authority of Christ.
Enough of the word energized the spirit man to subdue the flesh, it’s what empowers our spiritual man to fight against the kingdom of darkness.
The Bible is a book of covenant between God and man, Jesus Christ analyzed the promises of God to the obedient children, and the part of the covenant on God’s side, it’s already settled that God won’t fail on his side, it depends on our side for the covenant to be fulfilled.
Christians’ responsibility is to submit totally under the control of the Word and do all that is written therein, this is what activates the promises of God to come to fulfillment.
But it’s unfortunate that we are after the promises and neglect our own responsibility to make them come to pass.
When you fail in your responsibility to fulfill your side of the covenant by not living in total obedience to all that is written therein, how do you expect God to fulfill his own part of the covenant?
This is what the peddlers do to their listeners for God to evade his own side, that is when some ignorant will say, God doesn’t answer prayer, and go for a solution outside the will of God to fall prey to the powers of darkness.
Had they studied the Word themselves through the help of the spirit of God, they would have learned the law of causes and effects that would make them align with God’s purpose for their life.
The Word of God is a double-edged sword that cuts asunder between soul and spirit, the Word of God is God, if you don’t have sufficient enough of Him that will see you through, how will you cope in the world that’s already infested with demons?
Insufficient word of God in man’s life promotes a half-blind situation that one won’t be able to see clearly before he enters the pit dug by his enemy on the way.
Prayer: Father Lord, Your Word have I kept in my heart that I won’t sin against you in Jesus name amen
