PART 4: HOW TO RECEIVE AND LIVE BY THE WORD

1\. Receive it daily – like eating food, make time every day to read, listen, and think on it
2\. Believe it – do not just read it as a story; accept it as true for your life
3\. Speak it – just as angels hearken to God’s Word, speaking it aligns your life with heaven’s truth
4\. Obey it – not to earn God’s favour, but because you already love Him and want to grow

‌🙏 TRAINING PRAYER

Lord God, thank You for giving me Your Word. Thank You that it is more than words on a page – it is my spiritual food, fresh and life-giving every day. Thank You that it is the bread of angels, full of power and truth. Most of all, thank You that it reveals what Jesus did for me: He died to take my place, was buried to put away my sin, and rose again to give me new life. Help me to receive it daily, believe it fully, and speak it boldly, so that I may grow strong and live in the fullness of all You have done for me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
