WHAT ARE WE TO DO WITH ALL WE HAVE LEARNT?

Isaiah 59:21
Memorise Isaiah 59:21 "my words…shall not depart out of thy mouth"
WHAT ARE WE TO DO WITH ALL WE HAVE LEARNT?
There is much that we have gone through in the past three months, and we are nearing the end of this short study into the Old Testament. We have raced through all 39 books of the Old Testament, and read many portions of it. There have been many wonderful lessons gleaned from these Scriptures. We have also gained a lot of important information about various parts and aspects of God’s Word. The question we ask now is, what are we going to do about it? How are we going to put all that we have learnt into practice?
In Isaiah 59:21, the Lord was speaking to Israel, assuring them of the covenants and promises that He had given to them. He was comforting Israel who was afflicted, and confirmed that His Word is true, and His promises are eternal. He sees and knows the plight of His people, and will certainly save them and grant them redemption. Whilst this verse was an assurance to them, it was also an instruction that they were to be guardians and custodians to the promises of God, such that the Word which He has placed in their mouths was not to depart out of them. They were to pass it on to their seed from henceforth and for ever.
Likewise, we have received the many covenants and promises from the Lord. His Words have been given to us, placed in our mouths. Our duty is to ensure that these words do not depart from our mouth, and that we will internalize them and apply them in our lives. The words of God are to be precious to our mouths, pleasant on our lips and constantly be on our tongue. They would be the subject of our daily meditation, just as the Lord commanded Joshua in Joshua 1:8: "This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success". Furthermore, we are to pass on this Word from generation to generation, that it will be in the mouth of our seed and those after them as well. The instruction here is for the sharing of God’s Word to others, that they too will have it in their mouths. Will you do your part to share what you have learnt with others?
Thought: Is the Word of God in my mouth?
Prayer: Lord may You help me never to forget or forsake Your Word.
