We are walking in today:  Hold On To The Word!

Luke 8:10-15 10) And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand. 11) Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God. 12) Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. 13) They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away. 14) And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection. 15) But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patienceWhen we think about the word that God gave us on yesterday, replace your need to know with what you know about God, we have to truly begin to hold on to the word.  Jesus explains in this parable that the word is the seed.  That some of us calls into this prayer line and get a word that it could be choked out by things in your life.  1 John 2:5 But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.  Hold on to His word in your marriage, in your finances, in your health!  We have to walk this out by faith--hold on to the word of God!  The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy.  We have to hold on to the word of God that the seed takes root and is really in you.  As we walk through the Book, that we see Jesus teaching us that we have to walk by faith and not by sight.  Revelation 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. We have to hold on to the word of God, that is how we will be transformed, by His word!  His word is a seed and must be planted.  Think about the tests, trials and tribulations that often have us in fear, we must stand on the word God--2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.  Psalm 56:4 In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me. We must replace the need to know with what we know about God.  Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.  
Hold on to His word, fiveamprayer--it shall not be reversed and it stands forever! God hears His word, hold on to that! Because God and the word are one!  John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.  We have to walk in the word of God.  We must stay prayed up.  Job 22:21-22 21) Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee. 22) Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.  Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.  The word is the seed of your life.  2 Corinthians 9:9-11 9) (As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10) Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) 11) Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.   The more word planted the more we know who our Father is!  The more word planted, then we know that we are more than conquers!  Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. 1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Isaiah 61:5-7 5) And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. 6) But ye shall be named the Priests of the Lord: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves. 7) For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.  Hold on to the word of God.  Though He slays me yet, I will trust Him!  We are to always acknowledge Him.  He gave us so many scriptures on yesterday and on Wednesday, thank You God for sending us Your word!  Psalm 130:5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. God gives us daily bread, He is raining down manna from heaven.  If we seek Him we will find Him. His word is the only thing to keep, sustain, and give you joy and peace!  Look to God, He is the only God, who can do it!  We have to find that we trust and believe in His word.  We can pray that the Lord is my Shepherd, we shall not want! We can stand on and confess that healing is the children's bread--Psalm 82:6 I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.  We are looking to the hills because our help comes from the Lord!  We know that weeping may endure for the night but joy comes in the morning.  We can ask Him to cover us with His blood, there is still power in the blood!  Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord, delivers us out of them all!  Hold on to God's word, replace your need to know with what you know about God.  He will do above what you could ask or think.  The word of God is a seed.  We have been given a book full of seeds!  From Genesis to Revelation  it will keep you and sustain you.  We have to walk in the word, what did God say?  Not CNN or NBC, hold on to the word of God!  Let those that speak to you have this scripture written in their hearts--Exodus 4:15 And thou shalt speak unto him, and put words in his mouth: and I will be with thy mouth, and with his mouth, and will teach you what ye shall do.  That they are only looking to speak what thus says the Lord!  This is how you are able to not look at your situation or what you are going through.  Get you a scripture that you can speak and stand therefore, on!  2 Samuel 23:2 The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was in my tongue.
We have so much to be thankful for.  When we look back over our lives we have so much to be thankful for.  God keeps showing His glory and His face on fiveamprayer!  We know that His word is true and we can depend on His word.  2 Samuel 22:31 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him. Knowing the truth, will make you free.  Psalm 31:5  Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.  Psalm 33:4 For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.  So we must replace what we need to know, with what we know about God!  We have got to get this!  Hold on to His word, it is true, it is life, it became flesh and walked among us, it created all things!  Psalm 33:6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.  Standing on His word is how we can be still and know that He is God!  He sends us a on time word--Proverbs 25:11-12 11) A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver. 12) As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.  We must walk in these scriptures, not read them only.  James 1:22-23 22) But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.  23) For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass.  We are to study the word that the Holy Spirit will bring this word back to remembrance.  God is a rewarder to those that diligently seek Him!  He will never leave nor forsake us!  He will deliver on all of His precious promises!  Psalm 105:8 He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. We are to draw nigh to Him and He will draw nigh to us!  We are to pray without ceasing.  We are to pray and not faint, making our requests with thanksgiving!  We ask and it shall be done! Matthew 9:29 
Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.  We are to walk with God daily in His word. His word will stand forever!  John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  Thank You for the word of God!  It is Your word that I will hold on to!  That I can ask for the impossible, sun and moon be thou still!  Replacing the need to know with what we know about God!  Hold on to His word!  We have to learn to be content where we are, knowing that God has plans for us!  Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.  John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.  We know that all things work together for the good of those that love the Lord and are called according to His purpose. Thank You God! We know by His stripes we are healed! We can run on in the spirit! Through Christ we can do all things! Hallelujah God! Hold on to the word of God! That is what we need! We must be prepared in and out of season! God gives us an on time word, hold on to that word. Many are called but few are chosen. We are to be in study of the word everyday. That the word is really in us. This same word that is a seed would take root and we would bear fruit of that word in our lives. Hallelujah God! We give you all of the glory, honor and praise! Look at that God did it all! Thank You God that when we open our mouth, You would speak. Hold on to the word of God. We give Him all the glory and the praise! We are in a new level in God! Fiveamprayer is going up higher and higher in God! Hallelujah! You must be a willing vessel that God may use you. We have to walk in humility and stand on His word. We must stand believing and trusting in Him. That we would not be worried or looking to the world for an answer. Look to the word of God. What did God say about it? In the looking and searching for God's response that will have you in a study of His word. Our God is so good! He tells us what we need to do and then gives us a stirring to seek out His word. That is a part of that putting off of the old man and old ways! Thank You God for renewing our minds on yesterday that we put off seeking the wisdom of men and seek Your ways and Your wisdom. That we would increase in our knowledge of You and Your word! Fiveamprayer we need to be so steeped in the word of God that when the devil comes with his lies, and he will come, we have a scripture that shows the deceit. We must study to show ourselves approved! We find in several places of the Bible where the devil makes the appearance of speaking scripture. If we are not studied up and steeped in God's word we may fall for that nonsense!  Matthew 4:6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.  At the heart of the matter the enemy comes to get us to prove ourselves to him.  Look at scripture, he tells Eve that she won't surely die.  If in every lie that is brought before you, and you would stand on--Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.  So with our renewed minds we can prove God's perfect will.  That should be our only concern.  We don't have to prove the enemy is a liar, the word has already said so!  John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.  1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.  We must hold on to the word of God!  Proverbs 14:25 A true witness delivereth souls: but a deceitful witness speaketh liesProverbs 19:5 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.  Proverbs 19:9 A false witness shall not be unpunished, and he that speaketh lies shall perish.  Fiveamprayer hold on to God's word, it is true!  2 Samuel 7:28 And now, O Lord GOD, thou art that God, and thy words be true, and thou hast promised this goodness unto thy servant.  Romans 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.  We must cast down every thing that would attempt to exalt itself against the knowledge of God!  Be no longer caught up in your mind, get in and hold on to the word, to have a renewed mind!  What did God say about your marriage, your children, your finances, your job,  and your ministry?  Hold on to the word of God!  A praying wife can save her husband.  We are to lead our children in the way to go and when they grow old they will not depart from it.  Our God supplies all of our needs according to His riches in glory!  Ephesians 4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.  Psalm 75:6-7 6) For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south. 7) But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.  Isaiah 10:15 (AMP) Shall the ax boast itself against him who chops with it? Or shall the saw magnify itself against him who wields it back and forth? As if a rod should wield those who lift it up, or as if a staff should lift itself up as if it were not wood [but a man of God]!  2 Timothy 2:15, 19-21 15) Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 19) Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. 20) But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 21) If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.  The word is a seed!  What did God say about it?!  Don't give me any carnal answer or words!  We are to walk by faith!  Look to God He has already made a way for us!  He sits high and looks low.  Watch the hand of God in this!  His word stands forever!  Thank You God that somebody prayed for me!  Hold on to His word, it is life and death!  Romans 8:35-39 35) Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36) As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37) Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38) For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39) Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.  Hold on to His word!  The devil is still a liar!  We lift up fiveamprayer this morning, we see Your glory Lord!  Thank You for keeping and blessing us.  That You have already covered every prayer request.  Lord we come to repent for our disobedience and for our arrogance.  Forgive us Lord for our sins, that they would be cast away as far as the east is from the west.  Thank You God for teaching us to forgive others, that we too are forgiven!  We see Your glory!  Thank You God!
 

We seal this prayer in His precious blood, by His Spirit:  Thank You God for showing us Your glory!

Welcome to the overflow...
We need Your glory!  Thank You God for giving us more and more of You!  That You would show up this morning with Your glory!  Thank You for leaving us with the Comforter.  I see God wrapping His arms around this prayer circle!  Thank You God for sending us Your word and Your presence this morning!  Thank You for Your mercy, grace, wisdom, knowledge, understanding and patience!  Amen, amen!
