Significance of Knowledge

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.... Hosea 4:6

Sad as this may sound, it’s true nonetheless! God’s people suffer in life, not because they don’t pray enough or love God enough, but because they lack accurate and adequate knowledge of the Word. Reiterating this, the Lord Jesus said in Matthew 22:29, “...Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures....” When people lack accurate and relevant spiritual information from God’s Word, they experience defeat and failure. This isn’t because they’re “weak” Christians or because God couldn’t deliver them; it’s just the plain and inevitable result of ignorance.

In the lives of some people, things aren’t just happening the way they should; they’re putting in all the efforts they could, yet nothing productive is coming out. What’s the problem? Ignorance: they know not, neither do they understand; they walk on in darkness.....(Ps 82:5), destroyed by sickness and plummeted by the harsh elements of this world. Is this the lot for the Christian? Emphatically no! The Bible declares, “...but through knowledge shall the just be delivered” (Proverbs 11:9).

If you have knowledge, there’ll be a difference in your life. The knowledge of God’s Word will build you up, and deliver your God-given inheritance into your hands (Acts 20:32). If you’ve been wondering why your experiences haven’t been as victorious as the Word describes, you need to spend more time studying and meditating on the Word. Build your faith with the Word of God, for faith comes by hearing (Romans 10:17). As the Word comes to you, don’t just agree by way of mental assent, respond by confessing the same things. Soon enough, you’ll change the situation.

🙌🏾💙🙏🏾 I am going from health to health; from success to success; from strength to strength. I'm growing in knowledge, in understanding understanding, and in wisdom. The ability of God is at work in me! I can never be a failure, I am a success! The Hand of God is upon my life, I'm moving forward and making progress. The strength of God is in me.
