Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) 12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.<\/p>\n

The word of God is not something we should take lightly. His word is our source of knowledge, truth, and understanding.<\/p>\n

His word illuminates our path. It shines a light as we walk.<\/p>\n

His word shows us who He wants us to be.<\/p>\n

His word gives proof of who He is and how He created everything we see.<\/p>\n

His word feeds our spirit.<\/p>\n

And His word shows us that He loves us.<\/p>\n

And yet, despite this and more, so few believers read His word.<\/p>\n

Many people simply leave it up to their pastors or other church leaders to tell them what they need to hear.<\/p>\n

They fail to make the effort to verify that what they are being told is legitimate and accurate.<\/p>\n

This is a dangerous place to be; trusting someone else to secure our eternal destiny.<\/p>\n

It is, in fact, a place that will, more-often-than-not, lead many to spiritual death; eternal separation from God.<\/p>\n

Life without God\u2019s word is not life at all. It is a dry, mundane existence that will leave us empty and hollow shells of the men and women He desires us to be.<\/p>\n

It is life lived by intellect, emotion, and instinct instead of by the Spirit of God.<\/p>\n

Spending time in His word is not optional. It is mandatory if we desire to truly walk with Him.<\/p>\n

Be careful not to misunderstand this. God will not force anyone to read His word any more than He will force us to trust Him.<\/p>\n

But if we call ourselves His child, would we not want to know our Father completely, that our relationship with Him would be more than a passing mention of Him from time to time?<\/p>\n

Would we not want to know everything we can know about the One we call Father?<\/p>\n

If this brings feelings of conviction, or if you find yourself struggling in your walk with God, we urge you to pick up your Bible and spend time reading it.<\/p>\n

Put forth the effort needed to not only read it, but feast on it. Devour it as though your life depends on it. Because, in reality, it does.<\/p>\n

Psalm 119:105 (NKJV) 105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.<\/p>\n
