Have you ever struggled to find a scripture that’s relevant to stand upon for victory over your problem? The Bible is far more than stories showcasing the trials and victories of people from ages past. It is alive and active, carefully designed to contain principles, prophecies and promises for us to hold onto and live by to overcome in this life.
The Lord wants you to delve into His Word and discover the answers that are there for your victory. We have the gift of the Holy Spirit as our helper, mediator, and advisor. So when we ponder over scripture, the Holy Spirit brings understanding and customizes the truth to our own personal lives and circumstances. He ensures that when we apply the written Word, by faith, we will experience the power of God and the victory of the cross in every specific area we apply His Word to. According to Revelation 4:1, God invites us to come up higher and delve deeper into His Word, to where we see our lives from His perspective.
Ask and trust the Holy Spirit to give you wisdom and understanding as you spend time in His Word. Expect Him to speak and reveal the specifics of His truth into your spirit. This marks a beautiful journey of intimacy with the Lord, as He leads you into the fullness of life through His Word being made alive in your heart – every day of your life.
