If you understand very little of the Word of God, you ought to Read It More!
For the Spirit Explains the Word By The Word.
And if you enjoy the Reading of the Word little, that is good reason to Read It More!
For the Frequent Reading of the Scriptures Creates a Delight in Them so that the More We Read Them, the More we desire to do so.
No Servant of God should look to any human agency for the meeting of his temporal needs.
If they can be met by the labor of his own hands, well and good; otherwise he should be Directly Dependent On God Alone for their supply.
If Christ Finds us Willing to Trust ourselves and our interests to His Love,
If in That Trust we Give Up all care for our own will and honor,
If we make it our Glory to Exercise and Confess Absolute Dependence On Him in all things,
If we are Content to have no life but In Him,
He Will Do for us what the Father Did for Him.
Sometimes the enemy cuts off Believers’ material supplies, reducing them to wants and even to starvation.
At still other times he oppresses their spirit and makes them feel depressed, restless and aimless.
Or he may afflict the will of Believers, causing them to lose the power of free choice and thus not be able to know what to do.
Or he injects irrational fear into Believers’ hearts.
Or Satan heaps things upon the to overtire them, or else takes away sleep from them to wear them out.
Or he injects unclean or confused thoughts into their mind to weaken their resistance or else fashions himself into an angel of light to deceive and to lead the Believers astray.
God specifically listed the creeping things upon the earth, thus indicating that in order to Rule and to Subdue the Earth, Special Attention must be paid to them.
The entire problem is to be found on the earth.
It is impossible for me, my God.
Let there be an end of the flesh and all its powers – an end of self – and let it be my Glory to be Helpless.
God is Recorded as Promising to Wash Away men’s’ sins that they may Become White as Snow and as Wool.
Hallelujah!

and in the midst of the seven lampstands, [One] like a Son of Man, clothed to the foot, and having been girded around at the breasts with a golden girdle, and His head and hairs [were] white, as if white wool—as snow, and His eyes as a flame of fire;
ISAIAH 1.18-20
Now come, and we settle this,” says YHWH, “If your sins are as scarlet, they will be white as snow, || If they are red as crimson, they will be as wool! If you are willing, and have listened, || The good of the land you consume, And if you refuse, and have rebelled, || You are consumed [by] the sword,” || For the mouth of YHWH has spoken.
He wants to use man to deal with His enemy, and hence this is one of the reasons why He Created man: He will use the created to deal with the created: and the instrument He shall use is man.
