From the inside out
I have hidden your word in my heart
that I might not sin against you.
- Psalm 119:11
What is inside the heart affects our feelings, words, and actions. Therefore, if you desire to live a life pleasing to the Lord, you must take care of what you store in your heart.
Pay attention to what you read, the movies you watch, your conversations with other people; pay close attention to what you allow to enter your mind and your heart. Reading the Word of God, listening to it, meditating on it, and memorizing it are actions that will help you live a life of obedience before the Lord.
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
- 2 Timothy 3:16–17
As the two verses from 2 Timothy say, the Bible is inspired by God and, as such, brings blessings to our lives. It teaches us the way of the Lord and what pleases Him. It rebukes us when we sin and corrects us, showing us how we can change our path to live the life God desires for us.
The Word of God also teaches us what is right, helping us to walk in righteousness, and prepares us to do the work that God has entrusted to us.
Fill your heart and mind with the Word of God today! You will see how it will transform you and help you become more like Jesus. This will be noticed in your outward attitude and will impact those around you for the glory of God.

Day Before Yesterday's Word
To purify from everything that contaminates us
The New Testament conveys many promises to us. These promises concern God’s help in the midst of our trials, the return of Christ, eternal life, and glorification!
Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.
- 2 Corinthians 7:1
In 2 Corinthians 7:1, we are exhorted to pursue sanctification in our lives, based on the promises God has given us. Through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, we have the promise of redemption and eternal life. Therefore, as God’s beloved, our desire should be to live a life purified both in body and in spirit.
Purifying the body involves taking care of our physical temple our body by turning away from harmful practices and habits that do not honor God. But purifying the spirit is equally important. We must distance ourselves from attitudes, thoughts, and feelings that stain our communion with God and with others.
The pursuit of holiness is not an easy task, but it is a journey of continuous growth. This verse reminds us that we should perfect holiness with reverence and fear of God. This fear is not terror, but a deep reverence and respect for our Creator.
So, as we walk our journey of faith, let us keep our hearts and minds focused on God’s promise and strive to live a purified and sanctified life, honoring God in every area of our lives.
