I HAVE HIDDEN YOUR WORD IN MY HEART, SO THAT I MIGHT NOT SIN AGAINST YOU. PSA 119:11
As children of the most high God, we should always be careful of what we pay attention to. What you listen and pay attention to is what is stored in you heart. The word of God bring life as IT IS WRITTEN, “MAN SHALL NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH OF GOD. MAT 4:4 So KEEP YOUR HEART WITH ALL DILIGENCE; FOR OUT OF IT ARE THE ISSUES OF LIFE ( PRO 4:23 ) AND HAS RAISED US UP TOGETHER AND MADE US SIT TOGETHER IN THE HEAVENLIES IN CHRIST JESUS ( EPH 2:6 )
Let His word dwells in you. THIS BOOK OF THE LAW SHALL NOT DEPART OUT OF YOUR MOUTH, BUT YOU SHALL MEDITATE ON IT BY DAY AND BY NIGHT, SO THAT YOU MAY BE CAREFUL TO DO ACCORDING TO ALL THAT IS WRITTEN IN IT. FOR THEN YOU SHALL MAKE YOUR WAY PROSPEROUS, AND THEN YOU SHALL ACT WISELY. When His word lives in you, you will always be conscious of His commandments. Remember He said DO NOT BE UNEQUALLY YOKED TOGETHER WITH UNBELIEVERS; FOR WHAT FELLOWSHIP DOES RIGHTEOUSNESS HAVE WITH LAWLESSNESS? AND WHAT PARTNERSHIP DOES LIGHT HAVE WITH DARKNESS? 2CO 6:14
The word of God connect us to the feature. As we walk in the word, it gets us to where God wants us to be. YOUR WORD IS A LAMP TO MY FEET, AND A LIGHT TO MY PATH. PSA 119:105
My prayer is that, Whatever is contrary to the word of God will not execute in you life in Jesus name. And ye shall say to the enemies, TAKE COUNSEL TOGETHER AND IT SHALL COME TO NAUGHT; SPEAK THE WORD, AND IT SHALL NOT STAND: FOR GOD IS WITH US. ISA 8:10 . Whatever God has promise will come to pass in your life in Jesus name, because His word concerning you is settled in heaven. FOREVER, O JEHOVAH, YOUR WORD IS SETTLED IN THE HEAVENS PSA 119:89 So, it’s better to keep your treasures in heaven and always fill yourself with the word of God.
Enter the Sanctuary

Have you ever grumbled or complained about the apparent success of the ungodly? Have you felt jealous of the wealth, the power and the prestige they display? Have you wondered how it can be that some people have gained their wealth in a corrupt manner and selfishly hoard it while so many people are living in poverty and desperate need?
You are not the only one who has contemplated these questions. A man named Asaph pondered these matters in Psalm 73. “I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. They have no struggles; their bodies are healthy and strong. They are free from the burdens common to man; they are not plagued by human ills… This is what the wicked are like – always carefree, they increase in wealth” (Ps. 73:3, 4-5, 12). Asaph even questioned the benefits of maintaining his integrity and he lamented, “When I tried to understand all this, it was oppressive to me” (Ps. 73:16).
But then, instead of wallowing and complaining, Asaph did the right thing! “I entered the sanctuary of God; then I understood their final destiny” (Ps. 73:17).
It is only in the presence of God that we find peace of mind and gain divine understanding.
If you find yourself questioning things as Asaph did, it is probably a sign that you need to take more time out of your day to pray, meditate on God’s Word and listen to His voice. Then you can rest assured that the prosperity of the wicked will come to an end and you will say unto the Lord as Asaph did, “Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory. Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Those who are far from you will perish; you destroy all who are unfaithful to you. But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds” (Ps. 73:23-28).
Take time daily to “enter the sanctuary of God”!
