Two weeks ago, people spent all morning assembling Christmas gifts. Ahh! The joy of reading those tiny instructions, using even tinier tools to put together tiny toys for the tiniest tot with the tiniest tolerance to match. As an engineer, I enjoy assemblies that include detailed steps with pictures that guide you to success. You do one step, check the picture for correctness. Then you do the next step, and check the picture again, until your product looks like what the maker intended.

Jesus gave us great instructions – His Word. Believers often skip following the instructions and then wonder why life doesn’t look how the Maker intended. That’s because the Bible isn’t meant to just read, it’s meant to study so that you can do what it says. You lack peace? Step 1: Isaiah 26:3 - Keep your mind stayed on Him. Check your results against the Makers picture. You lack prosperity? Step 2: Joshua 1:8 – Meditate on the Word to do it and you will make your way prosperous. If life doesn’t look like the Makers picture, go back and redo the last instruction. Your life will look more like the Maker intended when you do the Word and follow the included instructions.
Step by step…
Heavenly Father, thank You for the instructions You’ve given me in Your Word. Your Words are life, light, and love. In Your Word is everything I need to have love, peace, strength, power, forgiveness and a sound mind. I commit today to not just reading Your Word but doing Your Word. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
