Luk 11:28But He said, "More than that, blessed [are] those who hear the word of God and keep it!"
Simplicity at it's best! It sounds so easy, but is it? This is definitely where the rubber meets the road! Blessed are those who hear the Word of God. . . . . (here is the catch). . . . . and KEEP it! This is where often the phrase, "Easier said than done" can come into play. One thing is for sure though. . . . . this is truth and it really is not optional! If I want to be blessed, I must keep (obey, honor, and live) what I hear and learn from the Word of God! We must see, hear, and DO! God is a great and mighty God and He has given us so many opportunities to be blessed, the only one stopping the blessings in our lives. . . . .is ourselves! I think the problem in my life is the still wanting what I want, when I want. . . . and not what HE wants when HE wants! So. . . . . I have a new motto for the day. . . . for my life. . . . Read it, Hear it, Live it, Do it! ! !
~Father God, I thank You that Your Word is so clear! I thank You that You have given us Your Word as a manual for what You expect from us and how we are to live our lives! I thank You for the grace that You have given us through the sacrifice of Your Son! Thank You for loving me so much! Father I pray that Your Word will sink deep into my heart and my mind so that it becomes second nature and I don't even have to think about it! I pray that my life will become a life that is pleasing in Your sight and that You will use me for Your glory! I love You Father, I thank You, and I praise You in the precious name of Jesus I pray. . . . . Amen!~
