Guidance For Daily Decisions
Week 2 Day 2,
Living in God word takes being persistent. Though for many of us time will be one of the stumbling blocks that keeps us from doing what we know is needed. Reading the Bible regularly is the primary way to live in the word. However you can receive the word in other forms too, such as listening to someone preach it, studying it, memorizing it, meditating on it, recalling it and applying it.
Having a personal, life long, and obedient relationship with Him mean that you want to study and meditate on the word regularly. Then you live what it says.
As you begin to memorize scripture you will notice that they will surface at that very moment that you need them in a given situation. Even when you can not open a bible in front of you, try meditating on the verses that you have memorized. Hearing someone preaching the word, teaches you what God has in mind. Developing daily reading and studying of the scriptures help you live in the Word.
