READ RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. GET SPIRITUAL KNOWLEDGE - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME. SATURDAY, JULY 16TH 2016.
My People are destroyed for lack of Knowledge: because thou hast rejected
knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing
thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children (Hosea
4:6).
The
underlined portion of the verse above is very profound; God is talking; and He
says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.” In other words, the
reason many are impoverished, punished and brought down, is their lack of
knowledge. However, it’s important to note the kind of knowledge He’s referring
to: its knowledge of spiritual things, the revelation knowledge of God.
Ignorance
of God’s Word is a destroyer. Isaiah 5:13 says, “Therefore my people are gone
into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honorable men are
famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.” As a child of God, you
must invest in, and go after God’s Word. Hosea 6:3 says, “Then shall we know,
if we follow on to know the Lord….” You can only make progress, increase and
spread abroad in prosperity, through the knowledge of God’s Word.

Peter 1:2 says, “
Feed
your spirit with the Word. If you want to see the glory of God in your life,
then you must enrich your spirit with the Word. The spiritual liberty and
blessings of God you’ll enjoy in your life would be dependent on the knowledge
of God that you have in your spirit. The less spiritual knowledge you have and apply,
the less the blessings of the Spirit that’ll flow through you. You need the
Word in you to give you the edge in life, and cause you to live above this
world’s systems.
PRAYER
Dear
Father, I set my heart and soul on your Word, to live therein! Your Word is my
life and my sustenance; and as the deer pants for the waters, so my soul
thirsts and yearns for your Word, which I cherish and delight in more than
physical food. Your Word in me makes me triumphant, constantly propelling me in
the higher life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
