How do we live according to God’s plan for us? The only way to
understand who God is and what He loves and what He hates is to know and to
continually study His word. The word of God is alive and will speak to us in
unique and personal ways.
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper
than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit,
joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Hebrews
4:12
God tells us to
meditate on His word, to etch it on our hearts and to live it out as we give
everything in life to Him. Other types of meditation call for us to empty
ourselves, while the meditation instructed by God is to fill ourselves to the
brim with His life-altering words
Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips,
meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything
written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Joshua 1:8
God’s words to
Joshua inspire me to remember to meditate on the word night and day. You will
find just the right words for any situation. The Spirit will bring words to
mind as needed from the Bible as we go about our daily business. With our
Bibles in hand, we can fight off the wiles of Satan and live the abundant life
that only comes from Jesus. B.I.B.L.E. “Basic Instructions Before Leaving
Earth.” “If your Bible is falling apart, there is a good chance you are
not! Enjoy this day.
Lord,
Today we thank You for Your word that is alive and active. The
word will be like a sword against the enemy’s schemes. It will comfort us,
inspire us, teach us and guide us into living the lives you have called us to
live.
In Jesus name,
Amen
