“…the Spirit of the Lord, Yehovah is upon me…” Luke 4 Verse 18
There is nothing that can be hidden from Yehovah and the Scriptures cut straight to the heart of the matter. They will speak into every situation in our lives if we allow them to. When Yeshua went into the synagogue, He found the place in Scriptures where it was written concerning Him. Every day, each of us will face different situations and challenges in life, which can swamp and overpower us. But Yehovah will speak to us through the Scriptures to equip us, encourage us, and guide us through them. Open the book and find ‘the place where it is written’ concerning your situation; there is always wisdom, faith and hope to be found in Scripture. Believe what Yehovah tells you, confess it aloud, and follow His instructions. Copy out verses that speak to you; memorize them, even stick them up in your house, car or office to remind you. Remember that Yeshua Himself has experienced every trial and temptation that you face; there is nothing that He cannot empathise and sympathise with and help you to overcome. There is a purpose in knowing the Scriptures – it makes you whole: ‘All Scripture is given by inspiration of Yehovah, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of Yehovah may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work’ (2 Timothy 3:16-17). The words of Yehovah will not only help you, but it will help others through you as you live out your good works today.
