Back
to hiding the Word in our heart.
Now we
know that if we hide the word in our heart, we will not sin against Him.
So, what does that really mean to each of us?
Jesus
said in
Mat 12:34
O generation of vipers, how can ye, being
evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the
mouth speaketh.
We
also know that in Prov 18:21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and
they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Mat 12:36
But I say unto you, That every idle
word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the
day of judgment.
So, if our mouth speaks from the resource that is in our
heart, we need to make sure that the resource is producing what we
want. And our tongue
creates life or death; we ought to speak life.
On top of that, we are responsible for every idle or
non-productive, unemployed or lazy word we speak…and will have to
give account of them.
Let’s
now go to the Word. In Whom
(2 Cor 1:10 KJV) "Who
delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we
trust that he will yet deliver us;" (Eph 1:7 KJV) "In
whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins,
according to the riches of his grace;" (Eph 1:11 KJV) "In
whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated
according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel
of his own will:" (Eph 1:13 KJV) "In
whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth,
the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye
believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise," (Eph 2:21 KJV) "In
whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy
temple in the Lord:" (Eph 2:22 KJV) "In
whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through
the Spirit." (Eph 3:12 KJV) "In
whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of
him." (Col 1:14 KJV) "In
whom we have redemption through his blood, even the
forgiveness of sins:" (Col 2:3 KJV) "In
whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge." (Col 2:11 KJV) "In

hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the

yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:"

1:5 KJV) "By whom
we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith
among all nations, for his name:" By Whom

only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by
whom we have now received the atonement." (1 Cor 1:9 KJV) "God is

things, and we by him."

6:14 KJV) "But God
forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus
Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the
world." In Him

give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth
in him shall receive remission of sins." (Acts 17:28 KJV) "For in
him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your
own poets have said, For we are also his offspring." (Acts 20:10 KJV) "And
Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Trouble
not yourselves; for his life is in him." (Rom 15:12 KJV) "And
again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall
rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles
trust." (2 Cor 1:19 KJV) "For
the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by
me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was
yea." (2 Cor 1:20 KJV) "For
all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen,
unto the glory of God by us." (2 Cor 5:21 KJV) "For he
hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be
made the righteousness of God in him." (Eph 1:4 KJV) "According
as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world,
that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:" (Eph 1:10 KJV) "That in

law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness
which is of God by faith:" (Col 1:19 KJV) "For it
pleased the Father that in him should all fulness
dwell;" (Col 2:6 KJV) "As ye
have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in
him:" (Col 2:7 KJV) "Rooted
and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been
taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving." (Col 2:9 KJV) "For in
him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily." (Col 2:10 KJV) "And ye
are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and
power:" (2 Th 1:12 KJV) "That
the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in
him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus
Christ." (Heb 2:13 KJV) "And
again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the
children which God hath given me." (1 John 1:5 KJV) "This
then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you,
that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all." (1 John 2:5 KJV) "But
whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God
perfected: hereby know we that we are in him." (1 John 2:6 KJV) "He
that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even
as he walked." (1 John 2:8 KJV) "Again,
a new commandment I write unto you, which thing is true in him and
in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth." (1 John 2:10 KJV) "He
that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion
of stumbling in him." (1 John 2:27 KJV) "But
the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need

all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you,
ye shall abide in him." (1 John 2:28 KJV) "And

coming." (1 John 3:3 KJV) "And
every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as
he is pure." (1 John 3:5 KJV) "And ye
know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is
no sin." (1 John 3:6 KJV) "Whosoever
abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him,
neither known him." (1 John 3:9 KJV) "Whosoever
is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and
he cannot sin, because he is born of God." (1 John 3:15 KJV) "Whosoever
hateth [detest or persecute] his brother is a murderer: and ye know that
no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him." (1 John 3:17 KJV) "But
whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and
shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the
love of God in him?" (1 John 3:24 KJV) "And
he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in
him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which
he hath given us." (1 John 4:13 KJV) "Hereby
know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given
us of his Spirit." (1 John 4:15 KJV) "Whosoever
shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and
he in God." (1 John 4:16 KJV) "And
we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love;
and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him." (1 John 5:14 KJV) "And
this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any
thing according to his will, he heareth us:"
(1
John 5:20 KJV) "And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given
us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in
him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the
true God, and eternal life." In Christ
(Rom 3:24 KJV) "Being
justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in
Christ Jesus:" (Rom 8:1 KJV) "There
is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus,
who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." (Rom 8:2 KJV) "For the
law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from
the law of sin and death." (Rom 8:39 KJV) "Nor
height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us
from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Rom 12:5 KJV) "So we, being

place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and

him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom,
and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:" (1 Cor 4:10 KJV) "We are
fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we
are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but
we are despised." (1 Cor 15:19 KJV) "If in
this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most
miserable." (1 Cor 15:22 KJV) "For
as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made
alive." (1 Cor 15:31 KJV) "I
protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord,
I die daily." (2 Cor 1:21 KJV) "Now he
which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is
God;" (2 Cor 2:14 KJV) "Now
thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in
Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in
every place." (2 Cor 3:14 KJV) "But
their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same veil
untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which veil is
done away in Christ." (2 Cor 5:17 KJV) "Therefore
if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old
things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2 Cor 5:19 KJV) "To
wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself,
not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the
word of reconciliation." (Gal 2:4 KJV) "And that

toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." (1 Th 4:16 KJV) "For the
Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of
the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall
rise first:" (1 Th 5:18 KJV) "In
every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus
concerning you." (1 Tim 1:14 KJV) "And
the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which
is in Christ Jesus." (2 Tim 1:9 KJV) "Who

persecution." (2 Tim 3:15 KJV) "And
that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to
make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus." (Phile 1:6 KJV) "That

hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be
made the righteousness of God in him." “Jesus was made my sin and He made me His
righteousness, therefore, I am the righteousness of God.” In Christ

law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from
the law of sin and death." “The Spirit of life is in me and I am free from the law of sin and death.” God Bless!
