Lack of Knowledge
Hosea 4:6 (NKJV) “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.”
This scripture refers to the priests of Israel not taking the extra step to expand their desire to know God. In today’s context, not knowing about God and not seeking to know Him more deeply has serious consequences for your own life.
Did you know part of the problem with most Christians is that they lack knowledge of what God’s written Word says? There is a list of benefits that come when you know God’s blessings.
1 Peter 1:2,3 (NKJV) “Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,…”
By having Knowledge of God:
- Grace and peace are multiplied to you.
- You are given all things that pertain to life and godliness.
- You are called to glory and virtue.
How do you get the knowledge of God? By reading and believing His written Word (The Bible). Listening to sermons is okay. But there is a point in your life where you need to pick up the Bible and read it. Don’t let the enemy trick you into thinking that the Bible is too complicated to be understood. God wants you to know Him, and He is waiting for you to reach out. When you earnestly seek Him, He reveals the Word to you!
James 1:5 (NLT) ”If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking…”
Be Blessed!
