Thy Word have I hid in my heart,
That I might not sin against Thee;

Established and fixed on high;
Thy faithfulness unto all men
Abideth for ever nigh. (Refrain)

I ever will give Thee praise;
For Thou art my portion, O Lord,
And shall be thro’ all my days! (Refrain)

The Saviour and Morning Star,
Salvation and peace have been bro’t
To those who have strayed afar. (Refrain)

Every ancestral evil embargo on your spiritual growth, catch fire, in the name of Jesus.

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Deuteronomy 6:4-9, Matthew 5:1-3

Deuteronomy 6:4-9:-
4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:

5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.

6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:

7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

8 And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes.

9 And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates

Matthew 5:1-3:-

2 And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven

28:09:22 MESSAGE-
Generally, education is imparting and acquiring knowledge through teaching and learning especially at a school, formal or informal, which leads to a systematic development and cultivation of the mind to make a person behave in a certain way (attitude, character) or profession. It begins in the early stage of life and continues through life. It is a way of bringing enlightenment to an individual or a community. It is a powerful means of making progress and development.

The Christian life begins with learning. After being saved from sin, you begin to learn the gospel. No one is made right with God unless he is saved from his sin and he forsakes them and accepts and learns about Jesus and His message of salvation to the world. It is a message of good news called the gospel. No one believes in Jesus unless he or she has heard the story of Jesus and has an understanding of it. We cannot grow in our faith and love of Him unless we learn more about Him. We will not grow in godliness if we do not know what it means to be godly. We will not grow to be like Christ if we do noi know about Christ. Great fathers in the Lord tell us to never forget that the message of the Bible is addressed primarily to the mind for understanding. God’s truth must be understood before it can be applied.

People may attend church, worship faithfully, serve the Lord in and through the church eagerly, give to the work of Christ’s kingdom generously, and desire to live godly in every aspect of their lives, yet, they demonstrate little or no evidence of spiritual growth. No one experiences the sweetness of growing closer to God and being more like Christ, unless he is first introduced to the gospel. Without learning, you will be a hindrance to the effective preaching of the gospel. For example, if you, as a preacher of the word has little or no understanding of the word, you will kill Your message and no one would desire to be like you. Be prepared to learn. God bless you.
