WE ARE UNSTOPPABLE WITH THE
WORD OF GOD
READ
14 While they were bringing out the money that had been taken into the temple of the Lord, Hilkiah the priest found the Book of the Law of the Lord that had been given through Moses.15 Hilkiah said to Shaphan the secretary, "I have found the Book of the Law in the temple of the Lord." He gave it to Shaphan.
16 Then Shaphan took the book to the king and reported to him: "Your officials are doing everything that has been committed to them.17 They have paid out the money that was in the temple of the Lord and have entrusted it to the supervisors and workers."18 Then Shaphan the secretary informed the king, "Hilkiah the priest has given me a book." And Shaphan read from it in the presence of the king.
19 When the king heard the words of the Law, he tore his robes.20 He gave these orders to Hilkiah, Ahikam son of Shaphan, Abdon son of Micah, Shaphan the secretary and Asaiah the king's attendant:21 "Go and inquire of the Lord for me and for the remnant in Israel and Judah about what is written in this book that has been found. Great is the Lord's anger that is poured out on us because those who have gone before us have not kept the word of the Lord; they have not acted in accordance with all that is written in this book."
-2 Chronicles 34:14-21
THINK
We see Josiah’s response to the reading of God’s word, why does he respond this way?
Different things in the Bible cause us to respond in different ways, what different things have you experienced as a result of the Word?
The Word should always require a response. Why do you think people either read the word and don’t respond or fail to even read the word? What about in your own life do you fall into one of those two categories(read & not respond or not even read)? Why or why not?
PRAY
These thoughts and prayers are just a guide to get you started in your conversation with God. Think of them as conversation starters rather than a check list to quickly pray.
Pray that we will be like Josiah in that we will treat the word of the Lord as importantly as we should.
Pray that when we devote ourselves to the word that we won’t stop at simply reading but we will be moved to action in response to the word.
DO
Look at these two passages of scripture and look for the appropriate response;
Philippians 4:4
1 Thessalonians 5:18
