Love you all, praying for you,
I just love God’s Word – it’s truth. What if you didn’t have it? What if what you thought was truth, wasn’t? God gives the standard of truth, His Word. It’s how you know what truth is. It gives wisdom and understanding, instruction for success, examples of what works and what doesn’t, what God blesses and what He destroys. I’m so thankful for PRISM -those five things you can do in God’s Word every day. It extends God’s Word from a task to be completed to an adventure to go on! Rather than just getting it done, it helps you want to come back for more. Praying that you will Praise the Word today, there’s power in praise. Praying that you will Read the Word today, just a chapter in context… it was the training God prescribed for kings! Praying that you will get Insight from the Word through today’s Proverbs chapter, so you grow in the wisdom that brings you success! Praying that you will Study the Word – that you will S.O.A.P. out the verse He has for you today – to reveal deeper things that are hidden for those who will seek them. Praying that you will Meditate on the Word – that you will ask God which PRISM topic He might have for you today – so you gain the full mind of Christ on the important things you need. And praying that you will pray the Word today, over yourself, your spouse, your children, and anyone else whom God will lead you to. Praying that you will pray the Word over someone else today. You would be surprised at the return on that simple investment. So thankful that sometimes in my PRISM time, God has me extract truths from an entire chapter. Psalms 21: What does David do? And What does God do? I love when God gives examples of what those whose hearts are fully devoted to Him… do. Because if He did what He did in response to them, He will do the same in response to you. What if you did what David did? David rejoices in God’s strength, David commits to Him as LORD (declaring his personal commitment to obedience), David desires in his heart – what He has filled with God’s Word, David brings his requests before the LORD with his lips, David asks God for life, David is glad with the joy of God’s presence, and David trusts in the LORD. What if you did what David did? What does God do? God rises in strength and power, God gives David victories, God grants David the desires of his heart, God does not withhold the request of David’s lips, God welcomes David with rich blessings, God places a crown of pure gold on David’s head, God gives David life – that he asked for, God gives David lengths of days, and life forever, God gives David glory through the victories God gives him, God bestows on David splendor and majesty, God grants David eternal blessings (starting now) God makes David glad in His presence (David gets there… God makes him glad there!), God gives David His unfailing love, God makes David unshakable! Because of God’s unfailing love, David will never be shaken. Praying that God will show you in your PRISM time, the things that others did, that you can do… So God can do for you what He did for them! There are things God does, and there are things God does through cause and effect. The “if-then” promises He gives… But even the cause and effect are from Him. He’s the One who loves you enough to help you do the things that release the things He longs to do for you! His Word is so worth your time… It’s an investment that never fails, the greatest investment ever – and it will last forever. Praying that God draws you to His Word, so He can draw you to His good… Love you all, dad
