Words of Life

One of the fascinating things I love about God’s Word is that God’s Words gives us life.  God’s Word is so full of life and all we need to do is to study His Word and obey His Word and life comes.  Let’s take a deeper dive into what I have said.   First Proverbs 2:6 says, “For the Lord gives wisdom and from his mouth comes knowledge and understanding.”  So our first part is to get the Word of God.  And where do we get it?  It (God’s Word) comes directly from him (God).  When you open your bible each day and read it, you are receiving the Word of God.  
  
Proverbs 4:20-22 says, “My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words. Do not let them out of your sight; keep them in within your heart, for they are life to those who find them and health to a man’s hold body.”  God is talking here.  He is saying, hint, hint, children, if you want life and health, all you have to do is pay attention to my words and listen to my words (listening with the intent to do). 

Proverbs 3:1-2 says, “My son do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart for they will prolong your life many years and bring prosperity” and Proverbs 4:13 tells to “Hold on to instruction, do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life.”  As you can see, the Word of God can prolong your life, bring you prosperity and we are instructed by God to guard it well for it is our life. 

God’s Word is life.  Spend time daily reading and studying Gods Word.  God’s Word has promised us life, long life, health and prosperity.   Our life is like a vapor and we are only a breath away from death, so time spent with God is not wasted time, it is life.
