The law of the Lord is perfect reviving 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 ordinances of the Lord are sure and altogether righteous
They are more precious that gold than much pure gold.
they are sweeter than honey,
than honey from the comb.
Psalms 19:7-10

God gives 4 examples of what the word of God does for us.
1. It is so comprehensive that it can transform your whole person (v.7a)
2. It teaches you how to live skillyfully; it imparts wisdom (v.7b)
3. You can see life as it really is through the bible (v. 8)
4. There are no impurities in the Word, no errors that will lead you astray (v. 9)
We always talk about how to make memories with our children. Creating traditions that last a life time. How to invest in our families so that we grow together as we grow older. Well I challenge you, are you creating memories with God?
I can remember specific times when God has pulled through for me financially when I was in a program called Master's Commission. God provided for me. I remember where I was and what verses God gave me when he called me to move to Sacramento, California from Phoenix, Arizona. Those times remind me as if I built an altar, like in the old testament. They would build an altar and sacrifice thanks to God. They gave those altars names as remembrance to what God had done!
To be honest, life gets in the way now. With five children I am on the go, there are things to get done and it gets harder for me to get in a devotional. I have struggled with it for years. But...I do have to say that when I fit it in, I can tell a difference in me. I am growing, creating new memories with God.
I want gold fever as it says in vs. 10. That the word of God is more precious than gold, than much pure gold! I want to hunger for God's word to know Him more and be used by Him more! I have been reading Living a Life of Fire by Reinard Bunnke (highly recommend). He was called to be a missionary at the age of 10. Despite the lack of support by his entire family, he knew in his heart his calling and God used him to reach millions in Africa. Wherever God has placed you, he can use you to reach those around you.
Let's all be challenged to dig in God's word, be transformed in our whole body, given wisdom for each day, to see life and people through God's words and lean on Him because in Him there is no wrong!
