WEEK THREE: WALKING WITH GOD
DAY # 3: THE NECESSITY OF WALKING (PART II)
MEMORY VERSE: “As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him.” Colossians 2:6
In Ephesians 6:17 the Bible is called “the sword of the Spirit.” It is a weapon we have for our use as we do spiritual warfare with Satan. The Devil despises the Word of God. He cannot stand to hear it. When the Sword of the Spirit is drawn and used --- Satan will flee…for a season. Remember Matthew 4?
Take your Bible and read Hebrews 4:12. That verse speaks of the penetrating value of the Word upon us. It knows and discerns our thoughts and intentions. It is a living and powerful truth!
Psalm 119:11 says “Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You.” Memorizing scripture and having it in your heart is utterly priceless. There are few, very few people today who are committed to memorizing parts of Scripture. And yet, there are many Muslims who commit to memory the entirety of the Koran.
When we allow the Word to dwell in our hearts as it says in Colossians 3:16, it gives us joy and wisdom and peace!
Other readings: Psalm 37:31; I John 2:14; Deuteronomy 6:6-7 and Joshua 1:8-9
