ACCESSING GOD’S WAYS BY STUDYING HIS WORD March 26, 2023 • Seeds of Destiny SCRIPTURE: Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. 1Timothy 4:13 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The habitual study of the Word is an attribute of greatness. It has been established that the Word of God is the builder of life and destiny. Your destiny is not in view when the Word is out of place in your life. To neglect the Word is to forfeit your destiny. This means, the diligent study of the Word is necessary for the fulfilment of destiny (2 Timothy 2:15, John 5:39). Now, what does it mean to study the Word of God? To study the Word of God is to access the ways, thoughts, principles and precepts of God from His Book in order to walk better with Him on earth. When you study God’s Word, you are trying to know what He likes, how He thinks, what His principles are, what you are allowed to do, what you are forbidden from doing, etc. This is what studying the Word of God is about.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: John 4:1-10 (KJV)
1 When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
3 He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.
4 And he must needs go through Samaria.
5 Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
6 Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.
7 There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.
8 (For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)
9 Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.
10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

MFM Devotional For Today 2022 MESSAGE:
Dehydration is insufficient water in the body which could be mild or very serious, depending on the level of water one has in his or her body. In the same vein, spiritual dehydration is the insufficiency of the word of God and of the presence of the Holy Spirit in a believer’s life. This is the point I have been trying to bring to your understanding. You need to know that spiritual dehydration is not something you handle non-challantly. It is a critical condition that needs concerted attention.
Some of the causes of physical dehydration are fever, diarrhoea, vomiting, etc. Now bringing these symptoms into spiritual templates, they become spiritual fever, spiritual diarrhoea and spiritual vomiting.
Are you suffering from spiritual fever? Have you allowed the mosquitoes of sin and evil habits to bite you? Many Christians are suffering from this malady today because of their constant fever has killed and is still killing several people.
Spiritual diarrhoea, especially the one connected to verbal indiscipline, is a major problem. Alot of people have brought different kinds of problems upon themselves because of the wrong use of their tongues. Diarrhoea in the physical makes one lose fluid. Spiritual diarrhoea also causes dehydration because many are given to too much talking which drains them of grace and unction of the Holy Spirit.
Another cause of spiritual dehydration is spiritual vomiting. This happens when you have fed yourself with the wrong spiritual diet through watching of obscene movies, listening to polluted music or feasting on social media garbage. When you engage in any of these you throw up spiritually and get sapped. Are you dehydrated spiritually? It is a dangerous spiritual state. That is why God said: for I will pour water upon him that is thirsty… (Isaiah 44:3).
PRAYER POINTS:
