His Impartation through His Word
"You are my refuge and my shield; Your word is my source of hope." Psalm 119:114 NLT
"Lord, You are mine! I have said that I would keep Thy words." Psalm 119: 57 NLT/KJV
"...But to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at My word." Isaiah 66:2b KJV
"God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for Him, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs." Matthew 5:3 NLT
The blessings of the Kingdom of God belong to His own who treasure Him, hold Him in awe, and reverence His words, unto obedience. As His beloved children, we recognize and confess the vastness of His love and mercy, the excellence of His majesty and greatness, the wonders of His grace, and our tremendous need of Him. So He fills us with Himself as He imparts to us through His word. Here are 7 of His qualities that He gives to us through His word: His
Passion, Purity, Praise, Presence, Peace, Power, Prayer.

Paid Dearly -- Valued Highly
" Unto Him Who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father....." Revelation 1:5-6 KJV
" For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And the ransom He paid was not mere gold or silver. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. God chose Him as your ransom long before the world began, but He has now revealed Him to you in these last days." 1 Peter 1:18-19 NLT
" ....for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God's very own possession...." 1 Peter 2:9 NLT
" ....much more surely will those who receive overflowing grace and the free gift of righteousness reign as kings in life through the one Man Jesus Christ." Romans 5:17 Amplified Bible
" The king's heart is in the hand of the Lord; He directs it like a watercourse where-ever He pleases." Proverbs 21:1 NIV
God our Father gave us His very best, His all, in the Person of His Beloved Son, Jesus. Jesus poured out His all, unto the last drop of blood, for us who were His filthy, hateful, and condemned enemies. What a horribly high price He paid to redeem us from the hand of satan, and translate us into His kingdom!! Yet here we are, without doing anything on our own to be here. And we shouldn't be just existing. He expects us to be reigning with Him in the position He suffered, died, and rose again to obtain for us. Our place is in Christ, with our Father in the heavenlies, as worshippers and pray-ers in living sacrifice. We are also, by His amazing grace and His applied righteousness, reigning as kings in this life to decree our King's righteous judgments in this world. All this is true and has happened because He has loved us with an everlasting love, and with lovingkindness He has drawn us to Himself. We are His and He is ours. Family. Partnership. Passionate dedication from the One Who gave and did everything so we could be with Him, now and forever.
Where are our hearts? May we cry out to Him for the ability to respond to Him in the way that He desires most.
