Run with the Word
READY:
I trust in you with all my heart. Don’t let me wander away from your commands. I have hidden your word in my heart so that I won’t sin against you.
Psalm 119:10-11

How many times have you wandered away from doing what is right in God’s eyes?
It is easy to say ‘I’m sorry’, to compromise on the word of God or be ignorant of what truly matters to God.
Sometimes it’s not about just doing wrong but about not doing it right.
There is a way to counter against us wandering away from the commandments of God.
It is to pursue God, seek Him with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.
It is to constantly draw near to His presence and abide in Him.
There is a way not to sin against the Lord.
It is to store His word in our hearts, treasure it and apply it in our lives over and over again.

Don’t ever give it an opportunity to reach an empty tank.

Use it, speak it, pray with it and ensure that your life is aligned to it.
Keep running, but only with the word!
