Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.–Colossians 3:16

Have you noticed that you can’t get to know someone unless you spend time with them? The same thing applies to God.
We can’t get to know Him either unless we get to know His word. When we start to make God’s word a part of life, we will see that He gives us wisdom. When we make time to hear God’s word taught to us, we will start to see what treasures there are hidden in the very pages of our Bibles. When that begins to happen, then it will be natural to have a song in our hearts! Our lips will be filled with praise, worship, and thanksgiving!
We will have so much to thank Him for because we will be reminded of His goodness, kindness, grace and love. He promises that He will never leave us or forsake us. May we never forget that!
A prayer for today:
Gracious Father in Heaven–You are a worthy of our praise! We thank You for telling us in Your word that You sent Jesus to earth to open a way to heaven for our salvation. Give us the power through Your Holy Spirit to know You more and more through reading the Bible and hearing the Word taught to us. We give our lives to You and expect great blessings from You! In Jesus’ name we ask this. Amen
