Proof Text: John 15:7
“If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.”
The Word of God is a treasure in the hearts of those who meditate on it. God’s Word must be valued because it is a guide and a source of direction. The Word of God is a tool for the Holy Spirit. It is our weapon of defence against the enemy.
As Christians, keeping God’s Word close to our hearts shows how important it is to us and proves our love for God. God’s Word is spirit and life; it has the ability to purify us and make us clean. The more we meditate on it, the more it becomes a part of us; the more it takes up residence within us.
We are nothing without God’s Word. It is this Word that made its dwelling among us and paved the way for fellowship. We treasure this Word by living in obedience to it. This is what Jesus meant when He said, “If you love Me, keep My commands.”
People of God, the Word of God is a guide; it directs us. It is a defensive tool against the accusations and attacks of the enemy. God’s Word works for those who treasure it and believe it. Therefore, let us pay attention to God’s Word. It is the way He communicates with us.
Prayer: Father, we thank You for Your Word. We ask for the grace to treasure Your Word and keep it close to our hearts, in Jesus’ name. Amen!
