Hair!

 

Hair!

 

Hair, we all have it and we all think about it. There are all kinds of events and conditions that affect our hair; rain, wind, humidity, exercise. We do all kinds of things to our hair; wash and condition it, color it, style it, cut it, let it grow; we touch it several times every day and we are rarely fully satisfied with it.

 

The most important thing about our hair has nothing to do with what we do to it! What The Bible says about our hair is very important! But we usually just read over those passages because they are part of a greater message, or so we think.

 

Now you are probably remembering something The Bible says about your hair, maybe that you cannot change its color or that GOD knows how many hairs you have on your head; like Matthew 10:27-31, quoting only verse 30, “But the very hairs of your head are numbered.”

 

In the context of this passage about fearing GOD and not humans we lose the Power of this statement, “But the very hairs of your head are numbered.” Stop and think about this for a moment (selah). Every time you comb or brush your hair, every time you wash your hair, every time you run your fingers through your hair some come out. Some just break and some come out by the root and GOD knows this about you and every other living human being!

 

First this speaks of the Majesty of Who GOD is! Second it speaks of the Love GOD has for you! GOD is Omniscient (Hebrews 4:12-13), Omnipotent (Revelation 4:11) and Omnipresent (2 Chronicles 16:9)! He is all Powerful, Knows everything and is everywhere at all times! He made us in His Own Image; which we do not fully comprehend; so that we can do The Work of His Kingdom in the earth as it is in Heaven; we do not fully understand this either!

 

There’s another verse we do not really think about, “Our Father in Heaven, Holy is your Name, Your Kingdom Come Your Will be done on the earth as it is in Heaven…For Yours is The Kingdom and The Power and The Glory Forever. Amen.” Matthew 6:9-13 GOD made all humans in His Image so that we can do The Work of His Eternal Heavenly Kingdom in the earth today! Are you? If not, Why? What better thing do you have to do than what GOD created you for?

 

So thinking about all the little details of our life that GOD knows and keeps track of, do you think about scriptures like, every word you say will be judged, “But I say to you that every idle word that men may speak, they will give account of it in The Day of Judgment. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” Matthew 12:36-37; or everything you do is written in a book in Heaven? “And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before GOD, and books were opened; and another Book was opened, which is The Book of Life; and the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.” Revelation 20:12 Having your name written in The Book of Life is determined by what is written in the book of your life!

 

There are many Scriptures that we skip over during sermons or when we are reading The Bible and we miss key messages from GOD, we should be studying our notes from sermons and studying The Bible for these important Scriptures, “All Scripture is given by Inspiration of GOD, and is Profitable for Doctrine, for Reproof, for Correction, for Instruction in Righteousness, that the man (and woman) of GOD may be Complete, thoroughly Equipped for every Good Work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17

 

No Scripture is so obscure or unimportant that we should ignore it, every Scripture is important and relevant to our life as a child and servant of GOD! If there is a Scripture that you do not understand and no one can explain it to your comfort or satisfaction then leave it with GOD and when it is in His Timing He Will reveal it to you, but never reject or ignore any Scripture! And remember when it comes to Scripture it is all about context, context, context! Who said it, who wrote it, to whom was it written and why was it written; then you can apply it to your life, because every Scripture applies to our life!

 

We are to “Seek Frist The Kingdom of GOD and His Righteousness…” Matthew 6:33; are you? If not, Why?
