Last week we had a message brought to you by Bro. Steven Low.


People these days face a lot of problems. There are four major problems that are primal fundamental pain of d heart(hurt), Sinicism of the mind, paralysis of one will, and overcrowding of the soul(no rest). Sometimes life is just too painful some of us and we do try to escape by going for movies, taking drugs, sex and other stuffs.
The purpose of God’s word is to give us an insight about our identity, our purpose in this world, the reason we are here, and the place we’ll be going to after this. The Bible contains doctrines, instructions, and corrections. We are running the race of life and after we finish the race we are going home to be with our Father. God has a plan for every one of us in this life, so serving God is never ever in vain.
The Bible was written by 40 different individuals inspired by God. There are many story books sold all over the world but the Bible but none can be compared with the Bible. This is because only the Bible brings changes and transformation in people’s life. It is the ‘revealed will of God’. God’s word is kindness, brings joy to us and also a weapon against our enemies. That makes the Bible the number one seller in the world until now.
There are five steps we can follow to have God’s word planted in our hearts at all times. 1, Read God’s word. 2, Study God’s word. 3, Preach God’s word. 4, Memorize God’s word. 5, Meditate God’s word.
There are seven things we should ask ourselves when reading God’s word.
1) Is there a sin to renounce?
2) Is there a promise I should claim?
3) Is there an error I should avoid?
4) Is there an example for me to follow?
5) Is there a command I should obey?
6) Is there a new discovery about God?
7) Is there an attitude I should change?
