UNDERSTANDING THE WORD OF GOD

PSALM 23: 6

“SURELY, GOODNESS AND MERCY SHALL FOLLOW ME                                                                                       

ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE;                                        

AND I SHALL DWELL IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD                                                                    FOREVER”

               A friend of mine who happens to be my  floor chaplain spoke about this verse “psalm 23;6” and I am so glad to share it to my fellow individuals because it made me know that knowing the word of God is about having a clear revelation of the Bible.

It’s a common verse known by us Christians whereby, it is been added at the end of most of our prayers. But do you know that we live by grace due to the coming of the Holy Spirit in the New Testament.

Now, the question is, “why do people still say “Goodness and Mercy shall follow me” “I shall dwell in the House of the Lord”” when it is clearly stated in the Bible that “OUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF CHRIST”.

If the Bible is well understood, it is not about changing the words of God but bringing the word of God to reality.

To me, God has already given us that Goodness and Mercy that is to follow us all the days of our life and we are enjoying, and we are already dwelling in the house of the Lord.
