"Don't lose sight of my words. Let them penetrate deep within your heart, for they bring life and radiant health to anyone who discovers their meaning." Proverbs 4:21-22
Yesterday our verse to memorize was Proverbs 3:1-2, "Store my commands in your heart, for they will give you a long and satisfying life."
Today Jesus continues to show us why it is important to memorize and store His Word. First of all He starts the passage off with a command. Don't lose sight of my words. Let them penetrate deep within your heart.
Then He reminds us again the benefit that comes from storing His Word. For they bring life and radiant health to anyone who discovers their meaning.
Brethren, everyday we go without reading the Word of God, we begin losing sight of His Words. Secondly how can we ever allow His words to penetrate deep within our hearts, if we aren't storing it by memorizing it?
Thirdly, how can we discover their meaning if we don't spend time studying His Word. Yes, I believe it requires more than 5 to 10 minutes in the Word.
Don't lose sight of His Words. Let them penetrate deep within your heart so you can receive life and radiant health.
Jesus we long for the life and health Your Word offers. As we store Your Word open our eyes to discover Your wonderful truths. Amen
