Living by His Word!!
Matthew 4:4
But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say, ‘People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
James 1:21-22
So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls. But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.
Psalm 119:36- 40
Give me an eagerness for your laws rather than a love for money! Turn my eyes from worthless things, and give me life through your word. Reassure me of your promise, made to those who fear you. Help me abandon my shameful ways; for your regulations are good. I long to obey your commandments! Renew my life with your goodness.
Jeremiah 15:16
When I discovered your words, I devoured them. They are my joy and my heart’s delight, for I bear your name, O Lord God of Heaven’s Armies.
We must feed our physical bodies a healthy diet of foods that will help them function at maximum performance. We are what we eat. If we feed our physical bodies junk foods, that are not life producing, our bodies will eventually begin to malfunction. Our spirit man needs a healthy diet of God’s word and our soul needs the rest that we get by meditating on the word, to function at peak Performance. We must live healthy lives physically and spiritually to receive God’s best.
Prayer – Father, I thank you for your word. It is necessary that I have a consistent diet of your word. Your word is my delight. I delight in knowing and doing your word. Your word gives me instructions for me to live the winning life in Christ Jesus. I pray that you help me to apply the word in every area of my life even when it requires me to change. Father, I commit to being a doer of the word and with the help of Holy Spirit, I will be successful.
