The Power of God's Word

Scripture:

Micah 3:6 "Therefore it shall be night unto you, that you shall have no vision; and it shall be dark unto you, that ye shall not divine; and the sun shall go down upon the prophets, and the day shall be black over them."

Observation:

God's people had walked away from Him and his prophets were not speaking truth.  His punishment in this case was to take away His word from them.  He said it would be night to them with no vision, no hearing the word of the Lord and the prophets shall have nothing but blackness.  God's punishment was to withhold the word of the Lord from them.

Application:

If withholding the word of the Lord is seen as punishment, how much should we value the word of the Lord?  It should be guiding us and bringing light into our lives on a daily basis.  We should be filling ourselves with His word so that we never go into darkness and so that we live according to His ways.  May the sun never go down on our ability to hear the word of God.

Prayer:

Father, thanks for reminding me of the power of Your voice.  Speak to me today.  Let me see what You are doing and follow You completely.  Help me to walk in the light as You are in the light.  Thanks for Your revelation.  It is everything to me.

Yours,
Jeff
