Topic: Understanding The Word
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (John 1:1).
As a Christian, it’s so important that you have an understanding of the Word. That understanding will help you have a concept of the Scriptures in a way that’s far beyond the generic; your approach to the Word will be different. This is important, because except and unless you understand the Word, you won’t know how to apply it to your life and situations.

The Word is Himself, God. That’s what we read in our opening text. When He speaks to you, He becomes to you and in you what He says. Every time you study it, you feed your spirit and you’re able to live the life of the Word. Then you discover that your Christian life every day is full of joy and excitement.
As you prepare your goals for the coming year, make studying the Word, devoting quality time to search and meditate on the Scriptures a top priority. This will cause you to be enlightened, informed, refreshed, strengthened and graced for greater effectiveness in your work and ministry, and all that the Lord would have you do in the coming year and beyond. You’d find yourself walking in the path that He’s chosen for you before the foundation of the world.
Remember that your life has a purpose, and the purpose of God foryou is revealed and becomes clearer as you fellowship with the Wordand the Spirit. He’ll grant you insight through the Scriptures. He’ll bringyour thoughts to something that He wants you to know now, that you canapply to your life. Then, His wisdom will leap out of the message andinundate your heart, and you find that you’re walking the path of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Hallelujah!
