read your Bible

 

I’m being reminded recently of just how important it is to daily be in the Word.

If we want to grow in our relationship with Christ…
If we want to gain more knowledge of the Bible…
If we want to be able to remember the things of God…
If we want to be more godly…
If we want to encourage people…
If we want to believe in truth, in ourselves, in others….
If we want more faith, trust, fruit…
If we want to know how to pray…
If we want strength…
If we want perspective…
If we want to understand…
If we want anything….

The Living Word of God is the place to go. When we are not in the word, our perspective suffers, our attitude suffers, our prayer life suffers, our relationships suffer, life seems harder, trials seem innumerable and hard to persevere…

God is faithful to us, even amidst all of our sinfulness…so why don’t we live like we love Him, and be faithful to Him and read His Word and spend time with Him.

and all that we want more of, we will have. because we will be living in Him.

 

“But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
Matthew 6:33
