Hebrews 4:12 The Word of God is LIVING and ACTIVE. Sharper than any double-edged sword. God's word is ALIVE and MOVING today. The word of God is applicable to everyday life. God is ever-present in Creation. He is always speaking. It is amazing how I can be studying scripture from long ago and it is applicable to my life today.
I am continually reminded how much I need to Know God's word, to really KNOW it. That it becomes an outflow of how I live, and the TRUTH by which I live my life. God is never changing. He has always been and always will be. His word is TRUTH. It His truth, knowing the truth, that sets us free. The Word of God is there to teach us how to live, how to conduct our daily lives, how to deal with different situations, etc. There is so much in there. There have been many situations and times where I have gone to the Word of God, and it speaks directly to what I am needing to hear, and what I am dealing with.
I am realizing more and more, the importance of having a daily quiet time, of really searching the scriptures and understanding what God's word says. It is easy to get busy with daily life, and get caught up in activity, but if I want to live my life according to God's word, I need to know what it says, and meditate on it. I need to have that time that I am communing with the Lord, and being still before Him. "Be Still and KNOW that I AM God. I will be Exalted among the nations" He is God, and worthy of my time, my affection, and my worship!
Psalm 145:1-3 I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name forever. Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever. Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom.
"I love this song because it declares who God is, and his infinate power, but his intimacy with His creation, with me. He is worthy of praise. He is worthy of my time. He is worthy of my love. There is no other God beside Him.
The second verse says, "Because you're with me, I will not fear." God is always present, always with me. He will never leave. I don't have to fear about tomorrow or the present. I can trust in His promises! He is Faithful!
Jesus may I take the time this week to spend in your word and look more into your Truth. I want to understand your ways. Thank you for your love, thank you for your forgiveness, thank you for your patience. You are always speaking, and always with me. May I be aware of you working in every detail of my life, and may my life align with your truth!
