Devotion To His Word by kpakpandoN(m): 6:28am On May 12, 2013
Besides commitment 2 an unbroken link wit God and a personal commitment to God's presence, another factor dat identifies someone who is committed to God is his or her attitude to God's word. If u re truly devoted to God, it will show in ur level of commitment to His Word.U wil deliberately find time to hear,read,study,memorise nd meditate on it. U wil also find time to put it into practice bcus hearing nd not practicing wat u hav heard 4rm d word makes u a hypocrite - one who deceives oneself. Hence James 1:22 says, if u hear God's word on restitution, tithing or loving dose who hate u, but fail to obey, it shows u re not committed to d word. Every instruction u have received 4rm Bible, which u hav not obeyed stands against u in d area of commitment. If u re committed 2 d word, u wil love it. It will bcom sumtin very important nd precious to u. In Psalm 119:9-16, d psalmist used God's word as an antidote to sinning against God. Dis means dat, as he hid God's Word in his heart, it displaced all d evil thoughts to sin against God. If u also hide it in ur heart by memorising nd meditating on d word, it will be difficult for u to sin. Show me a Christian who often sins, and I wil show u a Christian who is not committed to the word of God. In addition, in verse 14 of Psalm 119, d psalmist says God's word gives him joy. He sees every revelation dat comes to him by studying d word 2 be as valuable as silver nd gold. Wat value do u attach to d Word of God? If ur quest for money is separating u from d word, it shows u re not committed to it; u value money above d word. If u re committed to d word of God, u cannot stand a day witout it. Peter was so committed to Christ's words dat he threw his net when he would ordinarily hav refused dat order (Luke 5:5). How committed re u to His instructions?
