PDL Marathon.........Day 24 Episode 1 Transformed by Truth People need more than bread for their life; they must feed on every word of God. Matthew 4:4 (N LT) Gods ... gracious Word can make you into what he wants you to be and give you everything you could possibly need. Acts 20:32 (Msg) The truth transforms us. Spiritual growth is the process of replacing lies with truth. Jesus prayed, Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth. Sanctification requires revelation. The Spirit of God uses the Word of God to make us like the Son of God. To become like Jesus, we must fill our lives with his Word. The Bible says, Through the Word we are put together and shaped up for the tasks God has for us. Gods Word is unlike any other word. It is alive. Jesus said, The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life. When God speaks, things change. Everything around you-all of creation- exists because God said it. He spoke it all into existence. Without Gods Word you would not even be alive. James points out, God decided to give us life through the word of truth so we might be the most important of all the things he made. The Spirit of God uses the Word of God to make us like the Son of God. The Bible is far more than a doctrinal guidebook. Gods Word generates life, creates faith, produces change, frightens the Devil, causes miracles, heals hurts, builds character, transforms circumstances, imparts joy, overcomes adversity, defeats temptation, infuses hope, releases power, cleanses our minds, brings things into being, and guarantees our future forever! We cannot live without the Word of God! Never take it for granted. You should consider it as essential to your life as food. Job said, I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread. Gods Word is the spiritual nourishment you must have to fulfill your purpose. The Bible is called our milk, bread, solid food, and sweet dessert. This four-course meal is the Spirits menu for spiritual strength and growth. Peter advises us, Crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation. ABIDING IN GODS WORD There are more Bibles in print today than ever before, but a Bible on the shelf is worthless. Millions of believers are plagued with spiritual anorexia, starving to death from spiritual malnutrition.
