RECEIVING THE WORD OF GOD

The Word of God was faithfully preached in Thessalonica;

He was fully convicted to preach God’s word with power.

He had seen how the Word of God had great authority;

He faithfully preached the Word most faithfully!

 

The Thessalonians worshipped idols in the past;

They turned from idolatry to a faith that was steadfast.

The messages were believed to be the Word of God;

Their hearts were responding to the Spirit of the Lord!

 

The young church began to imitate the churches of Judea;

The brethren noted how the Judean believers held their faith dear.

They learned how to suffer affliction for the sake of the Lord;

The Thessalonian Church was deeply impacted by the Word of God.

 

How we receive the Word of God matters greatly;

If we do not regard it well, it will not work effectively.

But if we treasure Word of God as a gift divine;

We will see the impact it makes by God’s design!
