TOPIC: SWEETER THAN HONEY (I)
Fire Scripture: Psalm 19:7 -11
God’s words and all the instructions, admonition, precepts, statutes, commands and guidelines contained in it are perfect and sweet to follow. They are a complete and effective guide for our daily living. There is no part of it that can be underplayed when applied to our lives, because His word always serves the purpose for which it was planned. In our Memory Verse, the Psalmist emphasised the sweetness of His words. Here we can say that the Psalmist discovered that God’s word is more precious than all the wealth in the world and whatever pleasure they hold for man.
The word of the Lord is nourishment for the soul. Comfort for the hearts and balm for those that are hungry. The word is a complete palliative to every situation you can think of under the heavens. Men have spoken, but majority of the time, their words end up a lie and empty promises, but God’s word will fill the void in your heart and feed your hungry soul. The word of the Lord instils joy in the heart.
All the pronouncements, judgements and precepts of the Lord are a delight to the soul of man. God’s word strengthens, encourages, comforts and nourishes man’s soul.It is the bread of life that never goes stale. It is life to those that find it and health or medicine to all their flesh. It provides illumination for those in darkness and serves as compass for Christian pilgrims.
How important is the word of God to you and your life? The day you fully appreciate the inestimable value and benefits of God’s word and you make it your life’s greatest companion is the day you begin to enjoy the best that heaven has to offer all saints. Everything you need for abundance and the fulfillment of your destiny are available in God’s word. Won’t you rather trust and act on His word? David said in Psalm 34:8a, “O taste and see that the Lord is good.” What are you waiting for? Taste it now, and you will discover that, His word is sweeter that the honey and the honey comb.
Memory Verse:
Psalm 119: 103 – “How sweet are thy words unto my taste! Yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth”
Motivational Quote:

O Word of God Incarnate
1. O Word of God incarnate,
O Wisdom from on high,
O Truth unchanged, unchanging,
O Light of our dark sky;
We praise Thee for the radiance
That from the hallowed page,
A lantern to our foot steps,
Shines on from age to age.
2. The Church from her dear Master
Received the gift divine,
And still that light she lifteth
O’er all the earth to shine.
It is the golden casket
Where gems of truth are stored;
It is the heav’n drawn picture
Of Christ, the living Word.
3. It floateth like a banner
Before God’s host unfurled;
It shineth like a beacon
Above the darkling world.
It is the chart and compass
That o’er life’s surging sea,
‘Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides, O Christ, to Thee.
Above the darkling world.
It is the chart and compass
That o’er life’s surging sea,
‘Mid mists and rocks and quicksands,
Still guides, O Christ, to Thee.
