“Let the words about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom He gives…” – Colossians 3:16 (NLT)
Have you ever asked yourself who you really are? Take a moment to think about the kind of person you are, the thoughts you think, and the way you act and respond. The bottom line is clear: You are what you have made yourself to be.
Over the years, what you have consistently listened to, read, and watched has steadily moulded your thinking, your values, and ultimately, who you have become. You reason the way you do because of what you have made out of yourself.
From the Scripture, Colossians 3:16, we see that life is from within. Who you are outwardly is only the expression of who you have become inwardly. That’s why God gives us His Word. It is to reshape our minds and fill our spirits with divine thoughts. When you fill your heart with richness, God’s Word, you’ll unveil His glory, wisdom, and excellence.
That’s why the Bible says in Acts 20:32 (NLT), “And now I entrust you to God and the word of His grace – His message that is able to build you up and give you an inheritance with all those He has set apart for Himself.”
God’s Word will strengthen and mature you. His promises guarantee your eternal inheritance. He guarantees security, growth, and grace once we remain unshakeable in His Word.
Prayer
Dear Father, thank You for Your Word, that builds, trains, and transforms my life from glory to glory. Help me to align my thoughts, words, and actions with Your Word. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
