Life
Then God said, “Let the waters teem with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the heavens.”
And God created the great sea monsters, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind; and God saw that it was good (Gen 1:20-21).
In John 10:10 the Lord said, “I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly.” He is called “the Prince of life” (Acts 3:15). He came to lead us in the path of life. In Him is life, and He is the One with the words of life. If we are abiding in Him, life should likewise be flowing from us. We have been given a well of living water that will never run dry. In all that we do, we should love, seek, preserve, and spread life.
One of the most ancient philosophical questions is: What is life? In simplified terms, life is communication. We have life for as long as we can communicate, or interrelate, with our environment. Man is called a “higher form of life” because we communicate on a higher level. We are likewise alive spiritually only if we communicate spiritually. As the Lord said in John 6:63, “the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.” We only have spiritual life if we hear His words, or communicate on a spiritual level. As Read in John 11:25-26; Prov. 4:23, Luke 6:45 Prov. 18:21, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” As a famous statesman once said,
“Let your words be sweet because you never know when you may have to eat them!”
We should always be sure that our words are His words and are “spirit and life.” In Ps 16:11 we read, “Thou wilt make known to me the path of life; in Thy presence is fullness of joy.” The Lord Jesus is the Source of all life. The closer we are to Him, the more life we will have in us. As King David also wrote in Ps 36:9, “For with Thee is the fountain of life; in Thy light we see light.” Let us choose today to abide in the Source of all life, and let His life flow through us to bring life to others.
- Speak into the heavens that because of the fixed laws of the heavens and the earth no one – sorcerer, enchanter, diviner, etc. will be able to change the schedule of God for you, your family and church.
- Pray that your life will be on course and no one will be able to manipulate it.
- Pray also for your nation and continent. (33: 25-26, Ps.139: 7-13, Isa 1:13-14, Hos 2:11).
