"The Good Word" 1/12/23

LIFEWORD TODAY

Good morning,

The LIFEWORD today is taken from this passage in Prov 12:25. Have you ever woke up in the morning and just felt HEAVY? I don’mean physically but spiritually. This verse has several other references to look at. First, Prov 15:13

"A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance:

But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.”

“Heaviness seems to refer us to a “sorrowful heart” which causes a “broken spirit”.

Prov 17:22 , “A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance:

But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.”

What is a broken spirit? Well, we are in a spritual battle everyday, and sometimes, the devil strikes you with his weapon of discouragement before you even have time to think, and pray, and put on you spiritual armor for the day. (Eph 6:10-20)

Isaiah 50:4-5 “The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned,

That I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary:

He wakeneth morning by morning,

He wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.

5  The Lord God hath opened mine ear,

And I was not rebellious,

Neither turned away back.”

TODAY, I encourage you to OPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL EARS, OPEN THE WORD OF GOD, AND READ THE GOOD WORD, THAT WILL HEAL YOUR BROKEN SPIRIT!
