This is why it’s so important for you to be diligent to hearken to and obey God’s Word. There’s more at stake than your own little life. As believers, we’re in a war against evil here. Satan knows that his time is short and he’s working night and day to put people in bondage. We’ve got to get the gospel to them so they can be set free. “You are the salt of the earth,” Jesus said. “You are the light of the world” (Matthew 5:13-14, "NKJV"). There may be darkness where you live, in your neighborhood or your city, but if you follow God’s simple plan of hearing and doing His Word, you’ll be light in that darkness. You’ll walk into a place, and it won’t be dark there anymore. What an awesome privilege God has given us, as believers! He’s provided for us everything we need not only to be blessed but to be a blessing. He’s called and equipped every one of us to preach and live the gospel; to lay hands on the sick, cast out devils and give glory to God! To walk in that kind of victory, though, we must do more than sit in church and just take up space. We must give constant attention to God’s Word. We must keep planting it in our hearts, speaking it out our mouths and acting on it. Jesus said, “Be careful what you are hearing. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you—and more [besides] will be given to you who hear” (Mark 4:24, "AMPC"). You can give as much thought, study and attention to God’s Word as you desire victory. So go after it 100%. Commit completely to the simple strategy God has given us. Hear and do everything He says, “for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” V POINTS TO GET YOU THERE: 1) Whenever God’s people listened to and obeyed Him, He gave them victory. (Deut. 28:1-2) 2) Whenever God’s people didn’t obey His Word, He had to let them go their own way into failure and defeat. (Deut. 28:15) 3) God’s will for His people has always been for us to walk in His blessing. (Deut. 5:29) 4) As believers we are set up for success because, unlike God’s old covenant people, through the new birth God has given us a heart to obey Him. (Ezek. 36:26-27) 5) You can give as much thought, study and attention to God’s Word as you desire victory. (Mark 4:24, "AMPC") ************************************** ******** ADVERTISEMENTS ********* Unlock the secrets of true living.

An unbreakable, divine covenant, it’s filled with promises of victory sworn to you in the precious blood of Jesus that will empower you to triumph every time. Remind the devil that God’s promises to you have been ratified in Jesus’ blood. (Rev. 12:10-11) Meditate on the fact that Jesus’ blood cancels all Satan’s claims on you. (Col. 2:14-15) When the devil accuses you, plead the blood of Jesus. (Heb. 10:14) Don’t just talk about your blood covenant with God, walk in it by committing yourself fully to His plan. (Rom. 12:1) When the storms of life threaten to shake you, use God’s Word to anchor your soul. (Heb. 6:17-19) BVOV : 9
