Scripture
Isaiah 40:7-8 “The grass withers, and the flowers fade beneath the breath of the Lord. And so it is with people. The grass withers, and the flowers fade, but the word of our God stands forever.”
Observation
There are only a few things that are eternal. Everything else will fade away. God, His word, and His people are eternal. Everything else will pass away. It makes me think about what I live for or what I can trust. God’s word stands forever. I can trust it. I can count on it. I can build my life on the truths of the Bible. It is God’s word. It is true. It is eternal. It is my moral compass for life. It is the basis of all decisions I will make. It is the foundation of my life.
Application
I must learn and know God’s Word so I can live it. The Bible is truth. It is my moral compass. It is the basis of all my decisions. I will read the Bible. I will be a student of the Bible. I will apply the truths of the Bible to my life. I will live and obey God’s Word.
Prayer
Make your Word come alive in me. Help me to understand it. Enable me to live it. It contains the words of life. It is eternal. It is truth. It is trustworthy. I love your word and I ask that it conform me to the character of Christ.
