Do God's Work and all Your Needs will be Met | Fri May 23, 2014 12:22 am by Camille | God always provides for our needs according to His riches in glory through Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19
As long as we are doing the work of the Lord God will always meet our needs. As long as we are pointing others to God, He will always see that you have plenty.
Do the work of the Lord share what you know from the bible and share your testimony of how you were healed or set free and God …

| The Word of Truth
Second Timothy 2:15 says, "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." In this scripture we find we are told that we are to be workers for God, not ashamed, and that we are to rightly divide the Word of truth. What's interesting about this statement is that if the Word can be rightly divided, then it can also be wrongly divided. When I was young in the ministry, I wondered why there were so many different Christian denominations. If we all believed in the same Jesus and if we all taught from the same Bible, then why did we have so many different beliefs within Christianity? As I grew older and matured in the Word, I realized that even though we all used the same book as our guide and manual, that not everybody studied this book. In fact, one minister that I met in college ordered his sermons through the mail and only used his Bible as the folder to hold them as he preached. Too often we develop a belief and then search the Bible to find a scripture to back up what we have predetermined as the truth. With some, it doesn't matter if it is out of context; it only matters if a phrase matches their belief. Recently, on a major news channel, a reporter asked a seminary professor from one of the nation's largest Protestant universities this question. He asked, "Why is it that there are some ministers who seem so strong in their views on abortion and homosexuality? And why is it that they will not compromise what they believe?" The seminary professor's reply stunned me. He said, "One of the problems we have in modern theology and in many of our churches today is that there are some ministers who actually believe that everything in the Bible is true and that it is the ultimate code for their lifestyle and the lifestyle of their congregations." How sad it is when the men and women training ministers don't believe the Word of God is completely, 100 percent pure truth. Titus 1:2 and Hebrews 6:18 both tell us that it is impossible for God to lie and John 8:44 says that Satan is a liar. I know that rightly dividing the Word means so much more than what I am stating here. However, the first step to rightly divide God's Word is to believe that the Bible is inspired by God Himself and was written by men under the direction of the Holy Spirit. It is the Word of Truth.
