HOW TO STUDY THE BIBLE AND RECEIVE REVELATIONS, PRINCIPLES, AND PROPHECIES - Apostle Joshua Selman

invest in the word of God invest in the ministry of the word prayer is powerful but prayer without an understanding of the word will leave you only practicing religious Superstition what gives power to prayer is the word compliancy of your prayer did you hear that what gives power to prayer is that it is scripture based word complaint iant and consistent with the will of God in fact here's how the Bible puts it that this is the confidence that we have that when we ask anything in accordance to his will we know that he heareth us so when you pray Miss regardless the kind of energy you dissipate there is a guarantee that it will not be answered are we together many Believers pray and we do not get answers because we just pray emotionally superstitiously we just shout around and yet our prayer is not consistent with scripture the modus operandi in this kingdom is the word how things happen is by the word God's method has always been his word his method to lift his word his method to restore his word his method to bless his word the moment you ignore the word of God and try to get God's result you are not a Christian again the only way God's result comes to you is in compliance to his word now the Bible essentially contains promises principles and prophecies never forget this every time you study your Bible you are interacting with these three realm of realities principles promises God's commitments to you principles the modus operandi of the Kingdom prophecies guiding you to navigate your path through life and Destiny are we together did you get that so when you open your Bible you're interacting with promises the Bible calls them exceeding great and precious promises you're interacting with principles the Bible calls them the mysteries of the Kingdom Matthew 13:11 it has been given unto you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of Heaven and then you are interacting with prophecy most believers do not invest in the word listen let me tell you this ladies and gentlemen you must obtain Grace to study the word of God why do you need to study the word of God because it is important for you to know what God has said that is the basis of your Victory even Satan functions by knowing what God has said he depends on what God has said to you to attack you go to the Book of Genesis when he came to man his first interest was not to attack what did God say because that becomes the basis for my attack the way Satan Fashions weapons is that the weapons have to be Antichrist antis scripture are we together he needs to know what God has told you okay God has said you're going to become a great woman that becomes the basis of his attack God has said your third son will be a prophet he will make sure you get baring at that third pregnancy Satan only attacks with respect to the speakings of God's word so if you see Satan coming around your vicinity is proof he's aware that the word has reached you even if you are not aware his presence is confirmation that the word of God has come to you that's why he's called The Thief what is he coming to steal yeah you think he comes to your life to steal things oh no things only leave because the word left John 1:3 all things were made by him the word and without him was not anything made that was made am I right on that yeah this is powerful that means if you give yourself to the study of scripture acts chap 20 and verse 32 it says and now Brethren I commend you to God and to the word of his grace which is able to build you up it says and to give you an inheritance among them that are Sanctified you must damage spiritual ignorance from your life Ephesians 4 and: 18 having their understanding darkened being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them because of the blindness of their minds you need knowledge say knowledge knowledge please shout it say knowledge knowledge now knowledge that was the True Light Isaiah chapter 6 and verse one says arise shine why that is the only reason why you will arise because your light has come not because you are tired of staying in that state time does not change anything it only reveals the consequences of your decisions if you want things to change you must bring light John 1:5 and the light shineth in the darkness and the Darkness comprehended it not let me quote Isaiah 60 and verse1 from Amplified beautiful rendition here's what it says arise from the the depression and the frustration that circumstances have kept you rise to a new light are we together now listen the Bible says in Genesis chapter 1 the creation story that God called the light day and the Darkness he called night walk with me he called the light and the Darkness he called one more time he called the light and the Darkness he called so in God's economy the day is not 6:00 a.m. 12 a.m. 3:00 a.m. the day is not when the sun shines the day for you is when your light comes are we together so you can chronologically as we call it you can be at noon and yet you are still in the night and the Bible says with the Night Comes weeping so when you want to end your night you don't wait for the sun to rise you bring light because it is only joy is connected with light connected with the morning are we learning now he called the light day and the Darkness he called night so for many of us the Sun as we know it and as we call it um the lay man's understanding rising and setting rising and setting but in the realm of the spirit you've never really had day it's always been night because light has not come and for someone you may be living in the night and yet your experience is that of the day because of the abundance of the light listen go back to the word what has God said concerning your health what has he said concerning your finances what has he said concerning your influence are we together the Bible says in Psalm 82:5 they know not neither will they understand they walk on in darkness and all the foundations of the Earth are out of cause verse 6 says I have said ye are gods and all of you are children of the most high but verse 7 says you shall die like M men and fall like one of the princes I made a covenant with my destiny years ago that I would not be ignorant of the word I knew my life depended on it I found your word and I did eat it it became a joy and a rejoicing to my soul please invest in scripture I ca the spirit of laziness spiritually are we together yes sir wake up in the night and open your Bible there are three ways to maximize the ministry of the word number one study it number two confess it number three listen to it you have to study the word study to show yourself approved unto God a Workman that needed not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word then listen to it faith comes by hearing get materials and we we we live in an age where it is it is so easy there's there's all kinds of devices there are the speakings of Jesus Faith confess on healing Faith confessions on your destiny all you need to do is go online and pick it up you don't I mean they've saved you the the labor of pieing them together my phone is full of all kinds of scriptures and sometimes while I'm praying I let it play I may not be conscious but it's entering into my spirit I'm not listening for awareness I'm transporting it to my spirit are you learning so you study scripture you listen to scripture and you speak don't miss the speaking part you not maximizing the ministry of the word if you are silent let the redeemed of the Lord let the healed of the Lord let the Blessed of the Lord let the great by the Lord say let the children of the Lord let the witnesses of the Lord it matters that you say so the righteousness that is of Faith speaks it is not silent say so say so I am blessed say so anointed by the spirit say so number three the third key to becoming Mighty in the spirit is that you you must contend for Spiritual empowerment you must contend for Spiritual empowerment is God helping us tonight you want to be Witnesses you want to be men and women of stature this was the apostolic model that was handed over to the church it is not something to alter it is a pattern it will not change the ministry of Prayer in all its ramifications the the ministry of the word studying the word speaking the word listening to the word to feed your spirit man then now you come to the place of the anointing are we together yes Acts chap 10 and verse 38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power and the Bible says he went about doing good someone say doing good good one more time say doing good it takes more than a kind heart to do good it takes more than empathy and compassion to do good you need to be anointed to do good doing good and healing all they that were oppressed of the devil the Bible says for God was with him the Messianic prophecy Isaiah chapter 61 the spirit of the Lord is upon me says for the the Lord hath anointed me and now it begins to list to preach Glad Tidings to the poor he had sent me to bind up the Brokenhearted look at the category of people to Proclaim Liberty to the captives and the opening of prison this is very interesting that means there are men who seem to be free physically but in the realm of the spirit they in prison all kinds of Prisons to them that are bound let's finish the scripture verse two the Bible says to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord all by the anointing and the day of Vengeance of our God verse three to comfort all who mourn by the anointing to appoint unto them that morning Zion by the anointing to give them Beauty for Ashes my God the oil of joy for mourning the Garment of Praise steal by the anointing for the spirit of heaviness that they might be called the trees or The Oaks of righteousness the planting of the Lord that he might be glorified I receive I manifest you know the song your power and your wisdom till the Nations see Jesus lifted up exalted I receive I manifest that's your destiny your power and your wisdom till the Nations see Jesus lifted up glor glorify breath Lord breath breath Lord breath breath upon my life breathe Lord breath breath Lord breathe breath upon my life listen I don't have the time to to tell you how this prophetic song came it's become an Anthem in our ministry it's the richest capture a definition of our assignment at its core the anointing becomes for us the power of God and the wisdom of God you want to reveal Christ you need the wisdom of God and the power of God if you have power alone the cosmos will drive you the anointing can translate to wisdom and translate to power this is why we can deliver a lecture in the afternoon and heal the sick in the night wisdom power wisdom power wisdom power are we together yes
