Feed On the Word
Psalm 119:140
"Read your Bible prayerfully and obey it joyfully."
David Egner
Boo thought: I awakened suffering from the sin of gluttony. Two men, who are house guests here made the most amazing dinner last night and I couldn't stop eating. They topped it off with vanilla ice cream they had bought at our local creamery...Homestead Creamery. Whew, that ice cream was smooth and "PURE" like the verse above speaks of the Word of God...and the people here loved it!
When you fall in love with Jesus and feed upon his Word...you don't want to stop devouring it.
The good thing is...the only morning after affect is "joy" for having been with someone who loves you so much.
Yesterday we did a treasure hunt here, where one clue lead to the next...that is what can happen when you are seeking God's treasure...his Holy Word. Take today's verse and turn to that Psalm...your eyes may fall upon another verse God wants to use to speak to you. Then choose a key word from today's verse. Go with "servant". Look that up in your concordance and let that lead you to more verses. If you Bible doesn't have a concordance go to http://www.biblegateway.com/ and search the word "servant" (or another one if God lays it upon you). It is so much fun you will not want to stop!
Email me some of your verses at boojoyful@aol.com.
Let's pray: Lord you are our treasure. You are more precious than silver, Lord you are more costly than gold, Lord you are more beautiful than diamonds and nothing we desire compares with You. Speak to us today through Your Word. In Jesus Name, Amen
PS. I am too tired to proof this, so let me know if there are typos. Thanks for helping.
