As we prepare for 40 Days in
the Word let’s look at this subject on how do I build my life on the Bible?
The Lord created you and has
a purpose for you, and has given you five senses – hear, smell, see, taste, and
touch. Everything we know and experience
in life comes through one of those five senses. We encounter life that way, and
God wants us to learn to encounter the Bible with all of your senses.
We find these experiences in
James 1:19-25, My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this:
Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to
become angry, because human anger does
not produce the righteousness that God desires. 21 Therefore, get rid of
all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent and humbly accept
the word planted in you, which can save you. 22 Do not merely listen to the
word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens
to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at
his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and
immediately forgets what he looks like. 25 But whoever looks intently
into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting
what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do.
Use everything that God has
given you to experience His Word in a very real way.
Be wise today and always –
experience the Word.
