(KJV.) JOSHUA 1:8
(8) This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way properous, and then thou shalt have good success.
WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT:
Brethren, it is godly to read the scriptures everyday, for the word is our spiritual food and living water; if we constantly read the word, it will nourish and strengthen our souls: however, let us not only read but study also, both day and night, and apply its wisdom to our daily lives; by doing so, we shall have abundance of blessings and succeed in all our ways.
Case in point, Jesus, is the word, life and light of this world, (John 1:1-4); when we read the word daily, we are partakers of the light and life in him, and no darkness shall indwell or overshadow our souls; also, if we study the word carefully, the word will empower us with spirits of discernment, to guide our souls through life, so we receive salvation of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ: the word is available for free, (i) to conquer spiritual battles from the demonic world, there are quotations from the word to lighten our ways to victory by the blood of Jesus; (ii) when our homes are under demonic attacks, the weapon of our defense is the word of God; (iii) when sicknesses attack our mortal bodies, we receive healing by blood of Jesus, when we read and pray the healing promises of his word; by his stripes, we are healed, (Isaiah 53:5); therefore, let us live daily according to the scriptures!
Brethren, the word is the blueprint of humanity; what is hindering us today from reading the word? we might say, (a) what is the big deal? the deal is the word is the lamp to our feet and light to our path, (Psalm 119:105); when we read the word daily and observe its contents, we shall not walk in darkness but dwell in light, and shall prosper in all our ways; (b) we do not have time; it is alright, there are other resources out there to access the scriptures throughout the day; the internet, cell phones, radios and television stations: brethren, we do not have excuses now; let us tap into the Grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the word, life and light of this world: when we read the word, let us also pray for wisdom to understand what we read and apply it to our daily lives: we cannot read the scriptures all day, everywhere, all the time; but we can pray to Jesus, in our hearts everywhere and at all times; therefore, let our lights shine before men, that they may see our good works, and glorify our Father in heaven forever and evermore. Amen and Amen!
