Joel 1-2, Isaiah 44:1-18, 2 Timothy 2
What God said to me – Being a good sniper involves way more than just knowing how to shoot a gun and accuracy involves way more than just aiming. He needs to know how to take the gun apart and examine and clean each piece and how to fit it back together. He needs to know about ammunition and which bullet is best to use in each situation. He needs to consider the effects of the wind and elevation and humidity before he fires. In the same way there is way more to accurately handling My word of truth than just reading or memorizing it. You need to know and understand the context of individual scripture but also the totality of the message of My word. You need to consider the person you are sharing with or teaching – their background and understanding of spiritual things. You need to understand that it is My word that is powerful – not you – so seek Me for direction and understanding – don’t just blast away but share as I direct. It takes diligence to study and to learn so invest the time with Me so you will prove to be a workman who can accurately handle My word of truth.
