THE WORD: It’s Value

Psalms 19:10 ESV  More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.

Dear Fellowship of the Burning Heart:

The Word of God will have a place in your life in proportion to the value you place on it. It is very clear that we need the very words of God in our life. Jesus repeated the law’s evaluation: “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4; Deuteronomy 8:3).

Consider the following:

Psalms 119:14 ESV  In the way of your testimonies I delight as much as in all riches.

Psalms 119:72 ESV  The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

Psalms 119:127 ESV  Therefore I love your commandments above gold, above fine gold.

Psalms 119:162 ESV  I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil.

How much do you value God’s Word in your life? What are the indicators that show how much you value it?
