OBSTACLES TO ACCESSING THE WORD (4): EVIL HEART OF UNBELIEF
Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
Hebrews 3:12 (KJV)
Unbelief can hinder your access to the Word. Unbelief is an evil heart. Every release from the Lord is on the basis that you believe. If you believe no evidence is needed; if you don’t believe no evidence is sufficient. Unbelief places you where there is no other evidence that can satisfy your curiosity. Unbelief makes Yahweh a liar before you. That is why it’s evil. Unbelief is a great sin, it vitiates the heart of man. If faith is the only basis and link to connect with Yahweh, then you are eternally disconnected from the life of Yahweh in unbelief. The Word will become to you the words of a tail that has no relationship with reality. Evil heart of unbelief leads you to depart from the living Elohim and His Word. This kind of unbelief that hinder us from the Word is not the kind of unbelief that we see in Psalms 14:1, ‘The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.’ This kind of unbelief do believe that there is God but that is all there is to his faith. This evil heart of unbelief does not take Yahweh at His Word. The evidence of faith in the Word is action. When you do not act in line with the Word, no matter what you are saying, you do not believe. In time, your evil heart of unbelief will cause you to depart from the living God.

OBSTACLES TO ACCESSING THE WORD (3): THE THORNY HEART
And some fell among thorns? and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
Matthew 13:7 (KJV)
Some seeds fell among thorns (which are a good guard to the corn when they are in the barn, but a bad inmate when they are in the field). ‘And the thorns sprung up,’ which intimates that they did not appear, or but little, when the corn was sown, but afterwards they proved choking to it, (vs. 7). The thorny heart went further than the former, the wayside heart and the stony heart, for it had root; and it represents the condition of those who do not quite cast off their profession, and yet come short of any saving benefit by it; the good they gain by the word, being insensibly overcome and overborne by the things of the world. Prosperity destroys the Word in the heart, as much as persecution does; and more dangerously, because more silently. The stones spoiled the root, the thorns spoil the fruit. Now what are these choking thorns?

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (3): OBSERVE QUIET TIME
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
II Corinthians 13:14 (KJV)
Whenever I think of the term “Quiet Time” the Greek word “koinonia” comes to mind. Koinonia is the Greek word translated communion in our opening text. Literally koinonia means participation. Personally or socially, koinonia means intercourse, that is the highest level of communication between two people. Quiet Time is a time of communion or intercourse with the Holy Spirit, the Word and the Father all in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach. Your calling in HaMashiach, beloved, is a calling into the koinonia of the God-kind. I Corinthians 1:9 says, ‘God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.’ The quiet-time is a specific time in which we seek the face of the Lord, to know His friendship personally and to worship and understand Him better. Just like the term implies, Quiet-time is a time and place of quietness, where you can maintain some level of tranquillity to concentrate on the Presence of the Lord and on the communion of this God-kind. Quiet time, also called heart-to-heart time, or one-on-one time with the Father, is a regular individual session of Christian spiritual activities, such as prayer, private meditation, contemplation, worship, or study of the Bible. Quiet-time is the time of you coming to yourself both spirit, soul and body and consciously reaching out for the Person, Presence and Word of the Lord. That is the mystery of recovery of destiny as it happened to the man we have come to know as the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-32. Luke 15:17 says, “And when he came to himself, he said,” that is his destiny could not be recovered until he sat down in probably a quiet-time session.

TO ENCOUNTER THE WORD (2): MEDITATE
Meditate upon these things? give thyself wholly to them? that thy profiting may appear to all.
I Timothy 4:15 (KJV)
To meditate means to mutter; to speak to yourself in a low tone over a subject for over a period of time. Reading the Word is likened to eating food. The Word is spiritual food for the spirit-man. But what you eat doesn’t profit your body until it is digested and assimilated. Meditation is spiritual digestion and assimilation of the Word into your spirit-man. Joshua 1:8 says, ‘This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.’ Reading the Word is putting it into your mouth but beloved, don’t stop there, go further to speak that Word to yourself. To meditate actually means to murmur. Murmuring is a negative word because it is dwelling on the things that are not working in your life. But the process of murmuring is the same with meditation, the only difference is on what you are dwelling on in the process. When you are dwelling on the Word, murmuring it to yourself, it is called scriptural meditation. Meditation is not a gift, it is the result of the overflow of the Word in your spirit-man. Most times, meditation is involuntary. Other times, you must be intentional on what you are meditating upon. But I want you to see that when you flood your mind intensely and densely with the Word, meditation becomes involuntary. At all times, your mind is on the Word. This is the level and dimension I desire you come into.

THE WORD IS A SPIRITUAL REALITY
It is the spirit that quickeneth? the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
John 6:63 (KJV)
The Word of Yahweh is a spiritual reality. When we say that something is a reality, it means that it is in the state of being actual or real. It means that the state of that thing as it really is rather than as you might want it to be. The Word of Yahweh is a spiritual reality means that the Word is real and an actual person even though it is only related with spiritually. That you do not see it does not in any way reduce or negate its reality. This is critical because you cannot try to understand the Word like you do Physics or Chemistry or any other subject. It takes being in the spirit and being spiritually minded to experience the Word. That is exactly what our opening text is saying that until the Holy Spirit quickens the Word for you, it would remain a story to you. The Word is Spirit and Life and until one is in the spirit, you cannot profit from the Word. At new birth, you have the Holy Spirit in you. It is called the Spirit within. John 14:17 says, ‘Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.’ The work of the Spirit within is to change you into the image of HaMashiach by conforming your character and lifestyle to the image of the Son of Yahweh. As you study the Word, the Spirit within, brings the understanding that makes your life outstanding.

THE WORD IS YAHUSHUA
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
John 1:14 [KJV]
In Genesis chapter one, we saw the manifestation of the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit. The Father spoke the Word and creation happened, while the Holy Ghost was brooding over the surface of the deep. The move of the Holy Spirit alone could not bring about creation. Same today, the move of the Holy Spirit alone in your life, Church, family cannot bring about the creation of your desires. We must learn from the Father, who desired creation and spoke the Word. Creation is a function of the spoken Word and the move of the Spirit. Then, man was created. We had man join the family of The Father, Word and Spirit in the beginning. In the process of time, man sold out to the devil breaking fellowship with the trinity. This resulted in the perfect order being lost and man died (spiritually disconnecting with his source and physically returning to the ground as dust in the process of time) and also inheriting the destiny of Satan which is the lake of fire at the end of the age. To provide man with salvation, the Word had to manifest in the flesh of man. It was the same Word that created all things that was spoken to the virgin Mary that became the Lord Yahushua. The Word was made flesh because He must become like unto his brethren in order to redeem them (see Hebrews 2:17 NET). It must be a man that can redeem the fallen man.

THE WORD CANNOT LIE
That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
Hebrews 6:18 (KJV)
The Word cannot lie. It is impossible for the Word to lie. It is something that cannot happen. If the Word says something, it is better heaven and earth expires than for the Word to fail to come to pass. Matthew 5:18 says, ‘For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.’ The surest thing in time and throughout all eternity is Yahweh’s Word. It is one thing that you can take with your two eyes closed and still not miss your way or target. It is that sure and even more. The Word has been tried seven times and proved true both in heaven, on earth and in hell. Psalms 12:6 says, ‘The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.’ We want you to understand how infallible the Word is and that will built trust in the Word that will become your bedrock for unbelievable success with the Lord. The problem is faith. If you can believe the Word, you can become whatever the Word says, no matter how far removed presently from your reality it is. It is impossible for the Word to fail. The Word is the integrity of the LORD YAHWEH. The Word carries in itself the capacity and capability to become whatever it talks about, the only clause is if the person can believe enough to behave in accordance to the demands of the Word. Mark 9:23 says, ‘Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.’
