πŸ’’ Day # 3: I Timothy 2:1 Meditating and Doing the Word of God.

 
1 Timothy 2
 
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
 
(Yesterday I suggested you take a dictionary and look up these words:  supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men.  I did that.  If you have not done that, I suggest you do that.)

2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Joshua 1:8  This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

It is important to continue to think on that single section of scripture until it feels automatic to do that scripture.

James 1

1 Do not err, my beloved brethren.

17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.

18 Of HIS own will begat HE us with
the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren,
let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

20
For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

22
But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
