I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our cellphone?

What if we carried it around in our purses or pockets?
What if we flipped through it several time a day?
What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?
What if we used it to receive messages from the text?
What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?
What if we gave it to Kids as gifts?
What if we used it when we traveled?
What if we used it in case of emergency?
This is something to make you go..hmm.where is my Bible?


Oh, and one more thing. Unlike our cell phone, we don't have to worry about our Bible being disconnected because Jesus already paid the bill.
Makes you stop and think "where are my priorities?
And no dropped calls!
O how I love Your law!
It is my meditation all the day.
Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies,
For they are ever mine. Psalm 119:97,98

God has asked for your heart, your love, your whole self. You have given yourself to Him. He has received you and would have you and your heart entirely for Himself. He will make your heart full of His Word. What lies in the heart is dear because it is filled with joyful thoughts. God would have the Word in the heart. The Lord and His might are where His Word is. He considers Himself bound to fulfill His Word. When you have the Word, you have God Himself at work in you He wills that you would receive and lay up His words in your heart. Then He will greatly bless you.

How I wish that I could bring all young Christians to simply receive that Word of their Father, "Lay up these My words in your heart." I wish they would give their whole heart to become full of God's Word. Resolve then to do this. Take pains to understand what you read. When you understand it, always take one or another word to remember and consider. Learn the words of God by heart. Repeat them to yourself in the course of the day. The Word is seed and the seed must have time, must be kept in the ground. Likewise, the Word must be carried in the heart. Give the best powers of your heart, your love, your desire, the willing and joyful activity of your will, to God's Word.

What then is faith?
Nothing other than the certainty that what God says is true. When God says that something exists, then faith rejoices although it sees nothing of it. When God says that He has given me something, that something in heaven is mine, I know by faith that it truly is mine. With faith, I am able to believe God when He says that something will come to pass, or that He will do something for me.
Faith secures those things that are, but that I have not yet seen, and that are not yet, but will come. "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). Faith always asks only for what God has said, and then relies on His faithfulness and power to fulfill His Word.

It's easy to have a shallow relationship with someone. You can know their name, age, and where they live, but not really know them. Fellowship is what deepens a relationship. You can't have fast fellowship. In a world of fast food and fast things, you must realize that you can't have fast fellowship with God.
It won't happen. If you want to really get to know somebody, you've got to spend time with them. To really get to know God, you need to spend time with Him and ask Him to teach you about Himself. It begins with a sincere prayer from your heart.

:wave: Good morning to all my brothers and sisters in Christ.
May we each go into this day, equipped by God in all these things...
The faith
which accepts things we cannot understand and which will never turn to doubt.
The hope
which still hopes on , even in the dark and which will never turn to despair.
The loyalty
which will see you remain true to our Lord even though so many deny Him and which will never stoop to compromise.
The purity
to resist all the seductions of temptation
and which can never be turned from the straight way.
May our wills
be armed with His strength
and our hearts
with Christ's love
so that we may be strong to obey Him
and loving
to serve our fellow man,
so being as our Lord desires us to be.​
