My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. PROVERBS 4:20-22(KJV)

The training, the developing, the educating of our human spirits comes by putting the Word of God first place in our lives. God is telling us in this verse, “… Attend to my words [Pay attention to them—Put them first]; incline thine ear unto what am saying [Listen to what I have to say]. Let them not depart from your eyes [Focus and Keep looking at the Word of God]; keep my Word in your heart.” Why is God telling us to put His Word first, and to listen to what He has to say, to keep focusing on His Word, and to keep His Word in our heart? It is because “… His Words are LIFE unto those that find them, and HEALTH to all their flesh. “The margin of the King James says the word translated health is the Hebrew word for medicine. God’s Word is “medicine to all their flesh.” That means there is healing in the Word. We should train ourselves to put the Lord first

I have not gone back from the commandment of His lips; I have esteemed and treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food. JOB 23:12(AMPC)

We should train ourselves to always ask ourselves concerning any matter, “What does God’s Word have to say about this?” We should always ask ourselves what God has to say about anything that may come up in our life—and then take action and apply that Word first. You need to first think about what the Word of God says about any circumstance you face in life and act in line with what the Word says to you concerning that matter. Put God’s Word first in every area of life and you will be amazed at the level of results you will have.

Prayer of the Day: Father in the name of Jesus, I receive the divine empowerment to put the Word first in every area of my life.
