TOPIC - PEOPLE OF THE BOOK
Read: Psalm 119:105-112
MEMORISE: Your testimonies I have taken as a heritage forever, For they are the rejoicing of my heart_ (Psalm 119:111).
EXPOSITION
“I just do not have enough time.” That is the primary reason people give for not meditating on the Scripture. But in reality, we all make time for what is important to us. A few years back, a man photocopied the book of Philippians, cut it into sections, and taped it over his local newspaper. It only took up three columns of the front page. This proves that reading the book of Philippians takes about as long as reading our favourite parts of the newspaper, or scanning articles on the internet.
In truth, we could probably all find space in our schedules for God’s Word. You could begin by opening to an Epistle and ask the Lord to speak to you. As you read, pray over the words the Holy Spirit brings to your attention. As He lifts truths off the page and into your heart, ask Him for deeper understanding and application to your life.
Praying through a book of the Bible will elevate your spiritual life to a new level. You will find yourself wanting to progress past an elementary understanding of the faith as you learn to pray the Scriptures like David and Daniel. Moreover, you will desire to be obedient to what you are reading, because you are falling deeper in love with the book’s Author.
As believers, we have been greatly favoured by the heavenly Father. He has made us His sons and daughters, given of His divine Word, and promised to bless those who keep His commands *(cf. Jn. 14:21).* If we will draw near to Him, through meditation upon His Word, He will become our greatest joy and delight. Are we people of the book?
PRAYER POINTS
1. Lord, the grace to be daily reader of Your Word, rest on me today, in Jesus’ name.
2. Lord, let us draw nearer to You, through daily meditation of Your Word.
3. Father, endow me with the grace to be obedient to what I study in Your Word.
