How to scrutinize the scriptures: encounter with the Holy Spirit 2.
Receive the Word of God with meekness.
"Receive with meekness the implanted word, which can save your souls" James 1:21
Receive her as servants because she is the voice of the Master; receive it as saints so that it cleanses all impurity; receive it as subjects because it is the mandate of the King; receive her as soldiers to be equipped for the battle against evil; receive it as saved as guiadps by grace; and receive it as submitted, because it is our rule of life.
Let the Word of God dwell in you abundantly.
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and exhorting one another in all wisdom" Colossians 3:16
Let it dwell in the heart as a weapon against evil; let me dwell in the
soul as the running propeller; let it dwell in the mind like the plan that gives direction; and allow me to dwell on affection as power in conflict.
Keep the Word of God with tenacity.
Christ could say of his disciples: "They have kept your word" John 17: 6.
We must keep it as a well-kept treasure, like a teacher who teaches, like a tower that gives protection, and like our faith, we must keep it firmly and secure.
Remain in the Word of God tirelessly
"If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples." John 8:31.
The permanence in the Word is the mark of true discipleship, the evident evidence that we are true followers of Christ.
Live the Word of God faithfully.
"... Being manifest that you are a letter of Christ." 2 Corinthians 3: 3
The Christian is the Bible of the World, a living lesson. If we are not itinerant Bibles, then we are itinerant libels.
Hold the Word of God firmly.
"... grasped by the word of life." Philippians 2:16
Like the man holding the torch lit on his head on a dark night to show the way he and others should walk, so the Christian must hold on to the Word to guide his life, and by the testimony of his words, others can be illuminated and benefited.
"It will be like a tree planted by streams of water, which gives its fruit in its time" (Ps 1: 3)

Certainly, the word of God is alive and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword. It penetrates to the depths of the soul and the spirit, to the marrow of the bones, and judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Hebrews 4:12
Well spoken, the Psalmist said:
Fabulous publication Apostle @ darlenys01!
Each word represents your intimacy with the Lord. Each one of us must study the Bible and take into account the Word of God when referring to the Bible and our intimacy with it.
God bless you...

I liked your message @darlenys01, these tools will be useful for my Bible studies. Thanks for sharing this post
It is highly necessary to have a personal relationship with God
There is high need of course to always aim to be better than yesterday In our attempt to know Him more
Nicely written
OSThe Bible tells us in Psalms 1: 2-3 that when we delight and meditate day and night in the law of jehova, we will be like a tree planted by streams of water, which bears fruit in its time, and its leaf does not falls off; and everything we do will prosper. Thank you @darlenys for sharing this beautiful post.
We must individually receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God’s love and plan for our lives as we study the word
Thanks to the help of the Holy Spirit the word is revealed to us and we live according to the will of the father says the bible that she is a lamp at our feet.
Very Good dear sister Darlenys, I thank God for your unconditional support. I love this message, 7 important features. The word of God is my delight.
Good publication, as good as the first and very pedagogic, if I may add, the Holy Spirit is infinite in reality we will never finish knowing it, first we must know that it is a person (not a pigeon, an active force a light) has feeling Constrictor Thanks for sharing this lesson.
Nice post, Darlenys01
In the absence of the Holy Spirit, we are brought to nothingness.
We are inebriated, fortified, rejuvenated, strengthened and made whole when we rest intimately in and with him.
Well shared.
Stay blessed!
