Everything good that we have received,
we have received by the Word of the Lord.
By the power of germination, and
God's eternal "be" that is in His Word.
It is completely overwhelming
that God had such love for us human beings,
that He had so much care and love this work of creation.
As we saw here on this film,
that was His desire!
And Paul says, "For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man." [Romans 7:22]
So, when we receive God's mind
and partake of this life,
which is contained in His love,
then we also get a desire to do His Word.
This is precisely what makes us different
from other believers!
They do not believe it is possible to live God's Word!
We believe and experience that all His Words are true!
And then the new life starts to germinate in our inner life.
This is incredibly great!
The easiest and most natural thing
for people has always been
to harden themselves against God's Word.
That is the truth!
They have ears but do not hear. They have eyes but do not see.
Their disobedience to the Word
leads to chaos.
It leads to wretchedness!
However, obedience to the Word leads to an exalted life.
It leads to blessing
not only for yourself,
but also over your children and for a thousand generations.
God's blessings are unfathomable
when we believe in Him.
We see that both in the old
and in the new covenants.
Millions and millions of people
hear God's Word daily
on radio, television, and
during sermons in assemblies and churches
around the world.
Nevertheless,
why do they remain the same year after year?
They hear without hearing.
They see without seeing.
Therefore, God has entrusted this to a people
who can bear fruit.
It is those who simply believe,
for whom it is natural to believe the Word,
and who let the eternal "be" enter into their hearts -
so that they open their hearts to the Word.
Then God begins to create something new within them.
He recreates them so they become new people.
But who is it who truly wants this?
It is those people who are tired of themselves,
tired of their defeats,
tired of the way of the flesh.
They long for something new -
something eternal, something divine.
It is fantastic that God wants to do this in us!
