FEED ON THE WORD Joshua 1:6-9 Devotional:- “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success” (V. 8) NKJV      Man often makes the mistake of building his body but not his soul. Since man is not the body but the spirit, he that does not build his soul is weak though he is building his body.  To build your soul, you need to feed it with the word of God (James 1:21). Jesus said, “The words I speak to you are spirit and life”. In other words; it carries a spirit that will turn your life to what it should be. Information brings reformation. Information is the vehicle of the spirit.

IN HIS WORD

IN HIS WORD

Scripture: John 8:31-36
Devotional:-"Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed". v.31 NKJV

    A disciple of Jesus is not the one who come to just hear the word of God. They are rather those who abide or stay with the word of God. The desire of a disciple of Jesus is to be like Jesus. This is loving the way He lives. This is patterning  our lives after the life of Jesus because of the great encounter we have with Him (Matthew 17:4)

 In the scripture we read today, Jesus show us the way to becoming His disciple. This is by abiding in the word of God. It is staying with the word till we have good understanding. It is meditating on the word till we encounter the revelation of what God is saying (Psalm 1: 1-3). By this we will be able to live as He lives.

Friend, to abide in the word of God takes strong discipline and commitment to the word. This is by willingly taking the word, meditate and live according to the word (Joshua 1:8).  This is when we can have the best of God (Isaiah 1: 19) Discipleship is cultivating the life of Christ through the word of God. The word of God form our inner person to be like Christ when we stay with it. This is when we can reflect the image of Christ (2 Corinthians 3:18). Peace.

Prayer: Lord, put the love of your word in my heart.

"Your mind only get shaped to the word you always hear"
