As you go through life, there will be times when you feel lonely or face complexities and crises. During those times, rest assured that God will give you His important Word to overcome those hardships. Then, what takes place when God’s Word is established?

1. Healing of the Past and Victory in the Wilderness
God’s Word is the only method to heal incorrect imprints. The moment when the Israelites experienced the covenantal Word, they underwent the Exodus that liberated them from 400 years of slavery in Egypt. In addition, God was with them through the Word in the wilderness and led them to victory. Likewise, when you wake up in the morning, enjoy the Triune God and the blessings of the throne and stake your life on worship.

2. Future Guarantee
In the future, a mighty Wall of Jericho may block your path. However, you must hold onto the covenant and boldly pray. Even if you face a strong unified army of Amorites, there’s no need to be afraid. If you encounter crises in front of the hill country of Anak, an individual like Caleb will arise. By firmly holding onto the covenant alone, the Holy Spirit will work and your future will be guaranteed.

Instead of putting God’s Word in the Ark of the Covenant, place it in your heart, thoughts, and soul. If you accurately hold onto the Word just like the 7 Remnants and the heroes of faith of Hebrews 11, God will absolutely work.

Dear God, may it be a day when I enjoy the blessings of the throne. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

* What Have You Placed inside Your Heart, Thoughts, and Soul?

“And when you have multiplied and been fruitful in the land, in those days, declares the Lord, they shall no more say, “The ark of the covenant of the Lord.” It shall not come to mind or be remembered or missed; it shall not be made again.”Jeremiah 3:16
Instead of putting God’s Word in the Ark of the Covenant, you must place it in your heart, thoughts, and soul.
