Wig’s Word of God Today 4-13-2011
If you remain in My word, you will truly be My disciples, and you will know the Truth, and the Truth will set you free.” John 8: 31b-32
Daniel 3:14-20, 91-92, 95, Daniel 3: 52-55 & John 8:31-42
Today we return to Daniel’s story of the servants of King Nebuchadnezzar, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego who would not deny knowing their God or worship any other idol in replace of our God. When we remain steadfast in our worship to the One and True God, He abundantly blesses us with blessings beyond our wildest imaginations just as He blessed the the servants of the King who were blessed with life in the midst of fire. This fire is burning up people everywhere who do not show their love and respect for His Word, His decrees and His Son’s Truth. The fire can be anything we use in a life of sin; hatred, blasphemy, sexual misconduct, excessive self-esteem, lying, murder, drugs and alcohol, a wicked heart who plots evil against their fellow man, mischief of any kind, deceitful witness and so on.
Jesus tells the Jews to remain in His Word and you will know the Truth and the Truth will set you free. Free from a life of sin and selfishness abiding in the love of Christ to accomplish the Will of the Father for His Glory. There is a freedom that comes from taking the time everyday to read the Word of God and contemplate His guidance in your life. It’s important to note that true contemplation I learned in my retreat last weekend is to abandon everything when you are praying and look for God to guide you to His Will by listening and writing down the feelings you encounter when letting go and being with God. Contemplation is not meditation or reflection but a complete surrender to God’s Truth allowing His grace to work the miracles in every aspect of your life from your marriage to work to acts of charity- His Truth in His Will for you will set you free. Loving your love of Christ will set you free! Amen.
So we ask in prayer: Dear LORD, we pray today to always be true disciples of yuour love and Truth allowing others to experience Your Freedom. We pray today for my sister Theresa who celebrates a birthday today. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
“Spirit led God inspired Christ fed”
Allow God to be Your Need
In His Word find comfort
In His Word find peace
In His Word find forgiveness
In His Word find release
His Truth honors the Father
His Truth honors His love
His Truth honors His charity
His Truth honors miracles from above
Be not a slave of sin
Be not a slave of conceit
Be not a slave of the devil
Be not a slave of retreat
Allow God to be your Father
Allow God to be your feet
Allow God to be your Heart
Allow God to be your need
