“But he knows where I am and what I've done. He can cross-examine me all he wants, and I'll pass the test with honors. I've followed him closely, my feet in his footprints, not once swerving from his way. I've obeyed every word he's spoken, and not just obeyed his advice—I've treasured it.” Job 23:10-11

Is this true of you today? 

Are you at a point in your relationship with Christ that it is okay for Him to cross-examine you? Would you pass the test?

Do you follow Him so closely your feet land  in the footprints of His?

Are you obeying and treasuring His every Word?

Is your desire for Christ even that strong? 

I want these words of Job to become my words, my heart, my actions, my desire. I want to treasure God's every Word. And in making any of this happen I know I have to do my part. 

I have to spend time in His Word. I have to stay one step behind Him at ALL times so my steps will fall in line with His steps.

 I have to allow His Word to expose all sin and I have to confess those sins. I have to keep my eyes on Him at ALL times so I do not veer off from Him. 

My thoughts MUST be consumed with His Word at ALL times. 

My feelings must stay in check with His Word and not on me. They will lead me astray and even deceive me.

I have to be open and willing to be searched by the Lord at all times, and I must remain faithful to Him over anyone or anything. 

Jesus thank You for Your Word. I want to know it but more than that I want to live it. Amen
