How to overcome the Famine of Word of God?
Famine of Word of God
Amos 8:11
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord Jehovah, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Jehovah.
Amos 8:12
And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they shall run to and fro to seek the word of Jehovah, and shall not find it.
During antichrist rule, Churches and Bible will be banned. Bibles will be confiscated. Word of God will be removed from Internet. Many Christians will put in prison. This will create a Famine of Word of God.
A. Teaching by Holy Spirit -
Now, I want share a Revelation which I recieved from God that how can we overcome the Famine of Word of God.
1 John 2:20
And ye have an anointing from the Holy One, and ye know all the things.
1 John 2:27
And as for you, the anointing which ye received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any one teach you; but as His anointing teacheth you; concerning all things, and is true, and is no lie, and even as it taught you, ye abide in Him.
Carefully meditate on this Scripture (1 John 2:20,27), the solution for Famine of Word of God is hidden inside it.
We believers have received an anointing From God, this anointing of Holy Spirit teaches us concerning all the things. 1 John 2:27 also says that we do not need provisions for other to teach. Holy Spirit is the source of Word of God who teaches us everything.
So, when we will be in situation, we don't have access to Bible and Church. We have Holy Spirit who will continue teach us in the days of Famine of God.
So, now I am going to explain how Holy Spirit can teach us during the days of Famine of God of Word ( moreover it is the only way to be taught by Holy Spirit, you can more revelation about it)
1. Be still in mind and heart- We must quiet our mind and heart, so that we listen to still small voice of Holy Spirit ( 1 Kings 19:12)
2. Collect all your thoughts to one thought- Choose one thought as inspired by God. And meditate on this one thought and don't lose your focus ( Proverbs 4: 25,27). Then , Holy Spirit will teach you regarding that thought ( John 14:26). He will give Scriptures and Revelations about it. The wind of the Revelations will blow into your mind ( John 3:8).
For example- You choose ' obedience' to be one thought. Then , when you focus on that thought , you will receive Revelations about it.
3. Meditate- We you starts receiving Revelation from Holy Spirit, then start meditating on it. You will refreshed by the Anointing. You will become like tree planted by rivers of water, who continuously bears Fruit of Spirit and does wither his leaves. In the days of famine of Word of God, you prosper in your spiritual life. Amen. ( Read Psalm 1:2-3, Ezekiel 47:12)
B. Gather Word of God into your heart -
We must gather Word of God into our heart. Try memorize the books of the Bible. Pick one Book or Letter of the Bible, as God leads you. Learn and write specific number of Bible verses from that Book every day.
There is shortcut to memorize a book of the Bible which God has revealed me.
In some Bible translation, there is use of subject heading . For example -
Salt and Light
Matthew 5 : 13-16
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do [men] light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the stand; and it shineth unto all that are in the house.
16 Even so let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
Like subject heading ' Salt and Light' describes Matthew 5 :14-16.
I recommend to learn subject headings also with Bible verses. So when you recall subject heading, you will be able to recall the Bible verses under this subject heading.
If you learn subject heading with Bible verses, you can easily memorize Letters such as Ephesians, Colossians, Philippians, 1 John etc. You can also memorize big Books such as Matthew, John etc.
