#82 – Come Back

Good morning faithful friends of Christ

I think many times we naturally drift off course with our daily disciplines and there is a need to regularly come back to that which we know is right to do. Today why not take a stock take of how you are doing in the following daily disciplines. If you are doing great; wonderful, keep on going. If you know you need to improve; great, today you can do something about it. Let’s keep learning and growing together.

Prayer is our two way conversation with God. Prayer should involve more listening than talking. How is your prayer life? How about during the day when things are busy? Are you listening enough?

Meditation is our focused thinking about the Word of God. It’s not enough to read the Bible, we must know the Bible. This takes time and effort and real diligence. Do you take time to really soak in the Word? Do you think about it during your day?

Obedience is our response to hearing God through prayer and through meditation on the Word. Knowledge is not enough; obedience is required. How much of the Word that you know do you obey? How are you going applying the principles of God’s Word in your daily life?

1 Timothy 4:15 Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress. Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers.
