RHAPSODY OF REALITIES // DAILY DEVOTION

Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed (John 8:31).

One of the greatest decisions you could ever make in your life is to live the Word of God to the fullest possible measure. Decide you’re going to live and enjoy the blessings of the Gospel of Jesus Christ as fully as a man can. When you make this a conscious choice and commitment, it’ll drive you to study the Scriptures because to live the Word, you must know the Word.

No one can walk effectively in the truths that they don’t know. The extent to which you know the Word determines the extent to which you can manifest the life of Christ. Therefore, He says in Colossians 3:16, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom….” God’s desire is that the Word so dominates your spirit that it becomes your instinctive way of thinking, talking, and living.

The Lord Jesus said, “...he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). If you follow Him through His Word, you’ll never walk in darkness concerning your health, your future, your finances, or any aspect of life. You’ll always have the light of life. Following Him means yielding yourself completely to His Word and refusing to settle for less than what He has made available to you in Christ.

Don’t wait until you get to heaven to discover you could have lived at a higher level spiritually but didn’t. Don’t live beneath your inheritance in Christ because of ignorance or lack of commitment to the Word. Make up your mind that you’re going to know God’s Word and live it fully.

The Bible says, “Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD…” (Hosea 6:3). The Apostle Paul, by

the Spirit, said, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God…” (2 Timothy 2:15). As you study the Word, meditate on it diligently, and act on it consistently, the light of God will flood your path. You’ll walk in clarity, victory, wisdom, and excellence continually because the Word will illuminate every area of your life.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the light and power of your Word. I commit myself to knowing and living your Word

fully. Your Word fills my heart, governs my thoughts and directs my actions. I walk in the light of life, in victory, wisdom and excellence today, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
