Scripture of The Day
My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart… (Proverbs 4:20-21)
George Miller, who lived in the 1800s, cared for more than 2,000 orphans in his five orphanages. But he never allowed his huge responsibility to take away from the Word of God. He said that every day, he would set aside time to study the scriptures until his inner man was happy in the Lord.
George Miller believed that if he gave time to God’s Word first, God would take care of all his needs.
Do you believe that every day, only one thing is needful? That precious time with God and His Word is more important than work at the office, paying bills, doing laundry, or anything else.
Do you remember the story of Mary and Martha? Martha complained to Jesus that her sister Mary had left her to serve alone (Mary was sitting at the feet of Jesus and hearing His Word), Jesus defended Mary by saying, ” Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But One thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.” ( Luke 10:41-42 )
My friend, you will not lose out when you take time to sit down and listen to God’s Word. Even your health and well-being will be blessed. So take time today to meditate on His Word. It will make your way prosperous and give you divine health and good success!
