TOPIC: REMEDY FOR COMFORT
BIBLE TEXT: Colossians 3vs16 and Ephesians 5vs19 – Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the LORD.
The word of God this morning is served as a hot cup of coffee or tea with some extra toppings and honey. There is comfort in the word of God. The bible says, “the entrance of thy words giveth light,” – Psalm 119vs130. It is the light in us that burns out every darkness and saturates peace and joy within our soul. We are encouraged to let God’s word dwell (abide, reside) in us and also utilize the availability of God’s power in hymns, psalms and spiritual songs.
A certain king of Israel was grieviously tormented by an unclean spirit and it made him to misbehave and lose his honour as a king. 1samuel 16vs14 – But the Spirit of the LORD departed from saul, and an evil spirit (permitted) from the LORD troubled him”. It took a man of skill, one full of the word of God and having the Holy Spirit to help King Saul. David understood the remedy for comfort because he was a partaker of the blessings of God.
To admonish another individual you need to first partake of it. David played the harp with a heavenly touch with a heart of Joy and gladness despite the circumstances surrounding his life. 1Samuel 16vs23 “and it came to pass when the evil spirit (permitted) from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played it with his hand; so Saul was refreshed……”.
Practice God’s words and receive your comfort as the word expels bitterness, sorrow, sadness and mourning. Sing psalms, hymns, spiritual songs with grace to the LORD for your total comfort.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, I receive comfort by your words and remedy to all trouble.
Insight: Sing spiritual songs to comfort yourself in the time of trouble.
