FAITH CAPSULE: The place of the word of God is in the heart of man.
Romans 10
The word of God is God, His word is His command, the word of God is His law, and the testimony of God’s work is also His word.
The place of the word of God is in the heart of man.
The Bible testified that the place for the word of God is in the heart of man. Deuteronomy 6:6 records, “And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart.” Deuteronomy 11:18, “Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart.” Job 22:22, “Receive, please, instruction from His mouth, and lay up His words in your heart.” Psalm 119:11, “Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You.” Proverbs 4:4, “He also taught me and said to me: “Let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands and live.” Ezekiel 3:10, “…Son of man, receive into your heart all My words that I speak to you, and hear with your ears.”
The word of God’s destination is in the heart of man.
Without a doubt, as testified that the word of God is magnified above all the names of God, (Psalm 138:2) why not make your heart available for God’s word?
Do you have a place in your heart for the word of God?
Today, a man’s heart is full of the world with no space for the word of God.
A heart that is not full of the word of God is the heart with no space for the word of God. A heart that is not occupied by the word is not set to be faithful to God. Do you have a place in your heart for the word of God?
Jesus Christ, the Author and Finisher of man’s faith, the living word of God, should be allowed for occupying the heart of all man.
Are you giving heed to the word that will keep you from getting lost? Hebrew 2:1-3 buttressed, “Therefore we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away. For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just reward, how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who heard Him.”
From today, begin to give more earnest heed to the things you have heard in the word of God which is the direction to deliver from all challenges of the wicked world.
Prayer for today: Ask for God’s hand upon your life that your heart be the destination for His word.
