Allow the Word to do its work in you

The Word of God can transform your life if you allow it. Read it for what it truly is: a special message from God, full of love and wisdom. If you read it every day and allow its truths to penetrate your heart, you will see your thoughts, your desires, and your attitudes align more and more each day with the will of God.

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
- Hebrews 4:12

When you allow it, the Word of God penetrates the depths of your being and reveals what pleases God and what does not. If you want to live the life God desires for you, you must remain firm in Him. In the Bible you will find the daily nourishment you need so as not to stray from the Lord’s path.

Your word is a lamp for my feet,
a light on my path.
- Psalm 119:105

The law of the Lord is perfect,
refreshing the soul.
The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy,
making wise the simple.
The precepts of the Lord are right,
giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant,
giving light to the eyes.
The fear of the Lord is pure,
enduring forever.
The decrees of the Lord are firm,
and all of them are righteous.

They are more precious than gold,
than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,
than honey from the honeycomb
- Psalm 19:7–10

Read the Bible every day and allow it to do its work in you. You will see how you grow in the Lord and learn to live within His will in every situation.

Yesterday's Word

Every life is valuable and has a purpose

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
before you were born I set you apart;
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.
- Jeremiah 1:5

Many people ask themselves why they are here and what purpose they have in life. Many suffer greatly thinking they are the product of chance or that they are not worth much. Jeremiah, the prophet of the Old Testament, was one of those who struggled with this. He considered himself a simple boy who could not even speak well.

But God surprised him! God told him that He knew him before he was born and that He had a great mission for him. With all his emotional ups and downs and all his shortcomings, Jeremiah became a great prophet because God’s touch upon him filled him with courage and power.

How do you see yourself? Do you think you are here by chance? Do you think you only need to endure daily struggles as best you can until your end comes? Perhaps it would be good for you to ask God the reason why you are in this world today, at this specific moment.

Surely, there is something you are meant to do for the glory of God. He created you and desires to have a personal relationship with you. But He also wants to do great things in your life and through you. Open your heart today to the Holy Spirit of God and allow Him to show you how valuable you are to God and the wonderful things you can do with Him and in His name.

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
- Ephesians 2:10

How to overcome trials

At once the Spirit sent him out into the wilderness, and he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and angels attended him.
- Mark 1:12–13

In order to overcome sin in our lives, temptations are necessary. You should not place yourself in situations of temptation in order to win, but God naturally leads you to moments and places where your faith and steadfastness will be tested.

Jesus Himself was led by the Holy Spirit to be tempted by Satan in the wilderness. Because Jesus was filled with the Spirit and had been nourished by the Word of God, He overcame the temptations! Jesus is our example of how to overcome trials.

Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.
- Matthew 4:10

Jesus knew the Word and the incomparable power within it. In the Bible we find the truth about God’s power, and as we fill ourselves with that truth, we learn to overcome for the glory of our Lord. When the devil tries to fill our minds with lies or place doubts in our hearts about God, we can affirm our faith and reject his lies with the truths of the Bible.

Fill your mind and heart with the truth of God’s Word. Overcome the tests set before you by affirming your faith in the Truth. God loves you, God is powerful, and God will help you in every situation.

The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.
- 2 Corinthians 10:4
