Read
God’s Word. Memorize it. Meditate on it. Research it. Dig into it. Saturate
your mind with it until it settles into your heart. I guarantee a hunger and a
thirst will develop for it. The more you read, the more you want. There is no
end to the blessings it offers. You will get to know Jesus and His ways. Truth
will reign.
Sit in
awe at the scope of wisdom offered, the prophecies that have come true and the
prophecies yet to come. See Jesus foreshadowed throughout the Old Testament and
how His death and resurrection fulfilled the law and the prophets. Read about
His return and the glories of heaven. Not one Word has been proven wrong. Science, archeology, and history only continue to prove its truth.
The
fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever. The decrees of the Lord are firm,
and all of them are righteous. They are more precious than gold, than much pure
gold. They are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb. Psalm 19:9-10
Jesus is the Word of
God in the flesh. (John 1) The Bible is all about Him, from Genesis to Revelation. The
story of creation, of Israel, of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, of David and
Solomon, of the prophets from Deniel and Isaiah to Micah and Zechariah, from
the story of Moses and the escape from Egypt, to the baby born in a manger.
Read about the flood and the ark, of Jonah and the whale, of the twelve
disciples, about the transformation of Saul into Paul. Read about life and how
to live it and about the life to come. Eternity awaits. Read all about it ahd
go forth and live it!
Jesus,
We pray for Your Word to enliven us, to restore us,
to redeem us, to teach and guide us.
Develop a hunger and a thirst in our hearts to meditate on it daily,
until everything we do and see is seen through Your eyes. Let us live for You.
Amen
