#GOD'S WORD BANK

     
The Holy Bible says in Amos 8:11-12; “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it".
    The Rhema word of God never lies since we know that as in 2 Timothy 3:16 it is a God-breathed word; so, as Amos said it is truth that the time will come when the word of God will be no more, people will seek the word of God but they will not find or hear it, Bonny Mwaitege Tanzania gospel singer wrote the song on this very word of God and it really a touching and powerful song. Therefore feed your spirit with the word of God at this present time; let your heart be full of word of God to preserve your soul when trouble times come. Let your heart be the bank of the word of God, because without word of God human being cannot do anything; cannot pray, preach, help, love and the greatest is that he/she cannot be humble and obedient to Almighty God. The Holy Bible say people shall seek the word of God everywhere but shall not find it, i.e. the revelation of the word of God shall be scarce, people will read the word of God; meditate it but no understanding even to hear it, Therefore read and meditate the Word of God now to live Him all your life. It is through the Word of your testimony about Jesus of Nazareth that will make you overcome Satan (Brethren accuser) and that blood of Lamb (Revelation 12:11). Also in Colossians 3:16-17 the Bible encourages us by saying; “Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.  Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father”.
    Also in 2 Chronicles 31:21 the Bible says about King Hezekiah that in every work which he began in the service of the house of God in law and in commandment, seeking his God, he did with all his heart and prospered. Hezekiah compiled Word of God; the law and commandment and he seek God faithfully by reading the word of God and meditating it that’s why he prospered.  Almighty God also said to Joshua in Joshua 1:8 NIV that; he should keep the Book of the Law always on his lips; meditate on it day and night, so that he may be careful to do everything written in it. Then for doing so he will be prosperous and successful. Note also in Solomon's Proverbs 21:21 it is written that; "whoever pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honor", this is merely achieved by reading, meditating, keeping and acting on the God's word [Rhema]. The Almighty God also says in proverbs about His Word that; "Keep my commands and you will live; guard my teachings as the apple of your eye" (Proverbs 7:2).
     To top it up, Jesus of Nazareth assured us that; “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word [rhema] that proceedeth out of the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4). Concerning God's word [rhema] He also stated , “The words [rhema] that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63). This is revealed in John's revelation 19:13 about Jesus christ and the God's word that; "He (Jesus of Nazareth) is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God". 
     Therefore even us today let we keep the Word of God at this present time to be prosperous and successful in order that in those trouble times to come our soul can be preserved. Speak to the Almighty God now in Jesus name like David in Psalm 119:148-149 said that; my eyes anticipate the night watches that I may meditate on Your word. Hear my voice according to your lovingkindness; revive me, O LORD, according to Your ordinances. And also declare as David in Psalm 138:2 that; "I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast magnified thy word above all thy name", Amen.
