Good Morning and have a Blessed day. ATTEND TO THE WORD: Proverbs 4:20-23 (NKJV) 20 My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. 21 Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; 22 for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life. For the next few days we’re going to look into these great verses. There is so much here so let’s get started. Vs. 20, “My son, give attention to my words.” God is telling us today to give His Word first place in our heart. In the military when an officer says, “Attention!” the soldiers snap to it. That’s how God want us to be with His Word. The word attention means to concentrate, dedicate, attentiveness, diligence, mindfulness, affection, studiousness. It’s a verb meaning to listen carefully, to pay attention, to give heed, to obey. Pretty good stuff. Our Father here is telling us to give His Word our full attention, to dedicate ourselves to it and to study it. Why is that? Well as we will see later on in these verses, it brings health to our being. In Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) it says that the Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. God’s Word is alive, it has power within it. Just like a seed that has life within it, and will produce after its kind, so God’s Word which has life within it will produce after our Father’s kind. So what do you need today? Do you need patience, or joy or any other promise from the Word? Then get the promise from the Bible and attend to it and watch the harvest come. Confession: Today, I attend to the Word of God and it will produce an abundant harvest in my life. Todays Bible Reading: Jeremiah 31:27-40 Jeremiah 32 1 Timothy 3 Psalms 88:1-18 Proverbs 25:20-22
