Studying the Scriptures

Ezra 7:9-10

In these verses, Ezra prepared his heart to seek the Law of the Lord and to obey it. It is because of this that God has put his "good hand upon" Ezra.

When will we recognize the absolute necessity for the Word of God in our lives and our obedience to it?

Should we not as Christians, born again by the Spirit of God, have a desire to obey the Word of God? If so, then why do we get in such an uproar when someone points out areas of our lives where we are inconsistent with the Word? Shouldn't that make us fall on our faces before God in repentance while calling on God to change our hearts and transform our lives so that we might obey Him?

We need a revival in southern Christianity back to the authority of the Word of God and not our traditions.
