Food 4 Thought 8/9/07

Greetings,
Here is the recipe for today…

Jeremiah 13:10
This evil people, who refuse to hear my words, who follow the dictates of their hearts, and walk after other gods to serve them and worship them, shall be just like the sash which is profitable for nothing.

If you do not read God’s word then how can you hear His word? You have to get the written word before you can understand the spoken word. Your heart plans your way but the Lord determines your steps (Proverbs 16:9), and if you do not hear His words then you go off of reason (emotion), instead of a revelation (enlightenment). So draw near to God and He will draw near to you (James 4:8). Remember, in order to get Godly wisdom you have to retain Him in your knowledge by studying His word to get an understanding.

“Draw near to God and you will trace His steps”
