📖 "Where there is no word from God, people are uncontrolled, but those who obey what they have been taught are happy." -Proverbs 29:18 New Century Version
The Word of God was given to us to govern our lives. It tells us what is acceptable and what is unacceptable to God. When the Israelites were freed from their bondage at the hands of the Egyptians, God gave them the Law so that they would know what would be pleasing and displeasing to God. The Israelites had been in bondage for 400 years, and when they were free, they needed to get acquainted with God. If they followed the Law, they experienced success. God would conquer their enemies and prosper them wherever they went. God has given us His Word so that we can experience victory and prosperity in our lives as well. Without the Word of God, we would not have any restraint, and the devil would have total access in our lives. If we want to enjoy the good life that God has preordained, we must embrace and obey His Word.
