“If you desire to become an abider and a lover of God, you spend time with Him and spend time meditating on His Word. If you want to successfully walk in faith and live by faith, you will be diligent to read the Word and exercise your Faith. If you would like to walk in love consistently, you will meditate on the scriptures about Love and you practice walking in love.” – Gloria Copeland

Wow! I love what Gloria Copeland said. This is really… as in really… the desire of my heart…

These past few days, I’ve seen improvements in my “quiet time” with the Lord. I just can’t leave my room without talking to Him and reading His Word. I am so hungry for His Word. I’m beginning to understand those things that were not so clear to me before. The answers are now so comprehensible.

Indeed, God’s Word is powerful! I know it is changing me…

As I read His Word, the Holy Spirit is helping me not to forget the “basics” of my Christian life. He’s reminding me of what “Salvation” really means… also “Righteousness”… “Faith”…”Love”…

His Word has become my “weapon” in every situation I am facing.

With all honesty, I can say that I now truly love the words from Joshua 1:8-9

This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success.

Have not I commanded you? Be strong, vigorous, and very courageous. Be not afraid, neither be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Grabeh! I might be experiencing problems right now…responsibilities and challenges… But If I will just meditate on His Word, and ACT on it…I know I will be victorious! No, I am ALREADY victorious! Amen!

It is not wrong to be afraid or to fear… but we should not let fear hold us back from doing what God called us to do…
