Sweeter than honey!
By Riqui Ricón*
The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the
testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of
the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of
the Lord’s pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is
clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and
righteous altogether. More to be desired
are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the
honeycomb. (Psalm 19.7-10).
It marvels me
to see how people who profess to be believers come asking for help regarding a
need and, when trying to guide them towards God’s Word by saying, “let’s see
what the Scripture says about your problem”, it seems like this doesn’t satisfy
them, it also doesn’t seem to be the answer they are hoping for and usually
respond, “yes, yes, I know the Bible says that BUT…”.
Do you know what the
conjunction BUT means? It literally means: I’m going to contradict what
I just said. So, if you ever think, “well, I do believe the Bible is the Truth,
but…” Pay close attention because you are about to deny what you just said.
The Bible is God’s
Word and it is perfect and converts the soul; The Bible is faithful, it makes
the wise man humble. God’s Word is straight, it rejoices the heart; the Bible
is pure, it lightens the eyes. Love to the Lord is clean, it lingers for ever;
God’s Word is the Truth, all of it just. It is more desirable than gold, and
much more than tuned gold; and sweeter than honey, the one that distilled from
the honeycomb.
The answer to all
your needs is in the Bible, which is God’s Word and cannot lie, for if God said
it, then, He will fulfil it, if God spoke it, then He will execute it. God has
the Word of Honor!
This book of the law
shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and
night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein:
for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good
success. (Jos 1.8).
This is why it is so
important that ALL the days of your life (without skipping one) you set the
Bible in your mouth, mind and heart. That you are continuously and constantly
listening, reading and meditating God’s Perfect, Eternal and infallible Word.
For this is, the Word
of Honor of the only living and true God, the one that assures you that:
The Lord is
my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie
down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul:
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art
with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. (Psalm
23.1-4).
You will need nothing
in this New Life, for now you have God as your real and true Father, and He
takes care of you just like He has said it in His Word. God, your Father, will
guide you and look after you!
But my God shall
supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Phil 4.19).
Nay, in all these
things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. (Ro 8.37).
You will come out
more than a conqueror from every problem, anguish or disease through His Word
and His Love for you.
Who his own self bare
our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live
unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. (1 P 2.24).
You have all the
right to divine healing!
The Bible, God’s
Word, is God Himself talking to make you know that He loves you so much that He
preferred to give up His own Son before losing you.
For God so loved the
world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his
Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might
be saved. (Jn 3.16-17).
He is the almighty
God who compromises His Word of Honor, declaring that You ar His loved Child.
See how very much our
heavenly Father loves us, for he allows us to be called his children—think of
it—and we really are! But since most people don’t know God, naturally
they don’t understand that we are his children (1 Jn 3.1 TLB).
So, no matter what
problems, diseases or afflictions you are facing today, don’t doubt any more,
God loves you! And this, my friend, is the Truth, and it is sweeter than honey.
Let’s pray out loud:
Beautiful Lord Jesus,
I have no words to thank you what You did by dying in the cross because of your
love to me. Thank you because I have been justifies in Your Blood; all my sins
have been forgiven and I have been sanctified to be adopted inside the Father’s
family. I am a Child of God, Born Again! I can approach the throne of grace, to
reach mercy and find grace for the timely help. And, if this wasn’t enough I
have you, Holy Spirit, as guaranty and I have Your blessed Word. Thank You!
Thank you, very much! Because of this Love, I have Eternal Life and all the
right to make my life a plentiful and abundant one. Beloved heavenly Father,
Your Word is a Word of Honor and now I am convinced that, If you didn’t spare
Your own son but gave Him up for love to me, how will You not give me all
things together with Him? Lord, You will supply everything I lack according to
Your riches in glory. I will need nothing! And even though I walk in the valley
of shadow of death I will fear no evil, because You, Lord, are with me. Thank
you so much! Because of this Love I can say confidently, with all certainty,
that I am healthy! I am free! I am prosperous! I receive the Love, joy and
peace that my heavenly Father bought for me at the price of His Son’s, Jesus,
Blood. I believe that the Bible is Your Word, Lord, so there is no way I can
lose in this life! In Jesus’ name. Amen.
Note of importance:
How do I become a
Child of God? How do I establish my relationship with the Almighty?
Simply say this
prayer, placing all of your attention and heart into what you’re saying to God:
Lord Jesus, I believe
that you are the Son of God. That you came to this world from the Virgin Mary
to pay for all of my sins, and I have been a sinner. This is why today I tell
you, I accept. I accept your sacrifice on the cross! Yes, I accept Your
precious Blood, spilled to the very last drop, out of love for me! I open my heart
to you and invite you in, because I want you, oh Lord Jesus, to be my one and
only Savior, my God, my King, my Lord. Thank you, God Almighty, for with this
simple prayer and declaration of faith I have come from death to Life, I have
been displaced from the shadows and into Your marvelous Light. Today I have
been Reborn! God I am now Your Child! You are now my Father! I will never again
be alone! Never again will I live defeated. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
