A path does not become a path until the ground is tread upon time after time. In the woods behind our home, there are many paths that often lead to a creek. The deer have treaded upon that patch of ground again and again which leads them to their precious water supply. We have a lot in common with those deer, spiritually speaking, when we time and time again make our way to the banks of the Bible and drink from God’s powerful word. When we see through the eyes of the Bible our confidence will not be in ourselves, but in the living God. I recently read these words from Leonard Ravenhill, “One of these days some simple soul will pick up the Book of God, read it, and believe it. Then the rest of us will be embarrassed.” Those words hit me like a hammer between the eyes. We will truly never live until we come by way of God and His word. James 1:22a tells us, “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only.” If we will be quick to do that which we hear from God’s Word, we will be directed, and every course of action that we take will be put through the grid system of God’s word. God’s word will sustain, prepare, and protect the hearer and the doer of His word. The end result is that we will live and grow at the same time.
My life has not been the same since I was saved and began coming daily to God's Word. I recently posted a blog that challenged our readers to read Psalm one in the morning and again in the evening. I pray that many have taken the challenge and that God is meeting with you all in a powerful way.
