Four Things

When it comes to the Word of God, here are four important elements for happy, fruitful, Christian living:

Go to the Bible regularly.

Here is what the Berean believers did: “They received the Word with all readiness of mind, and searched the Scriptures daily, whether those things were so” (Acts 17:11).

Open it prayerfully.

Here is a good prayer for every time we read the Bible: “Open Thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Thy law” (Psalm 119:18).

Read it expectantly.

If we do, His promise is, “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with Mine eye” (Psalm 32:8).

Live it joyfully.

“I rejoice at Thy Word, as one that findeth great spoil” (Psalm 119:162).
