Shalom,

I have prayed Psalm 25:4-5 many, many times in my study of God's Word! Why is it so very important for us to know the Word of God? Romans 10:17 and Hebrews 11:6 show us the importance of the Word of God in one area!


Rom 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. NKJV

Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. NKJV

If we don't "hear" the Word, we won't have, and be able to operate in, faith! We cannot then be pleasing to God! Another reason that we MUST learn to know the Word of God is so that we can be a DOER of that Word, bearing fruit in the calling with which we have been called! Look at Matthew 25:29:

29 For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will be furnished richly so that he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away.

Make it YOUR determined purpose to more of the Word of God today than you did yesterday! Become a knowledgeable DOER of the Word and receive rewards, in this life AND the next! Amen! Here is Hillsong with an older song called "Take It All":



Shalom in Him!
