COMPONENTS OF THE DEVOTIONAL LIFE
TEXT: MATTHEW 4:1-4
Key verse: 2 Timothy 2:15-Study to shew
thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth.
You must devote and consecrate all to Jesus. This means that
you should come holistically to the Bible. God requires you to do all: When you
do this... then shall thou make thy way prosperous. The level you want your
Christian life to be is in your hands. The level of your progress is in your
hand. When you fast and you do not pray, it will not work because you have done
one and neglected the other.
Matthew
4:1-4
4 Then was
Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
2 And when
he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterwards a hundred.
3 And when
the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these
stones be made bread.
4 But he
answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by
every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
You must live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of
God. To know every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, you must study His
word. Ezra prepared his heart to seek what is written down. You must do the
same today to gain the true knowledge of the living God. Be equipped with the
word of God.
Joshua 1:8 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 prosperous, and then thou shalt have success.
You can only practice or do those things you know. You
cannot devote yourself to God when you do not know the God you intend to devote
yourself to. Studying the word of God and meditating on it is key to a
successful devotional life with God; then thou shall have success. Ignorance
of the word of God has made many fail in their Christian life. Some are
already in hell due to ignorance of God’s word which affected their devotional
life to God. Awake from your slumber and live by every word that proceeds from
the mouth of God. SHALOM
Thought for the day: Study and live
by every word from God
Song for the day: I give You all the
glory, I give You honour...
Bible reading for the day: Exodus
27-28; Matthew 21:23-46
