Job 23:12 (NKJV): "I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food."

In this hour, it's imperative as children of God to be saturated with the life giving Word of God! This is what nourishes our spirits and empowers us to live as effective representatives of Jesus Christ. When the pressures and cares of this world put a squeeze on us, whatever we are saturated with is going to come right out of us. The Bible says that out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks! The reality is whatever has had the greatest influence on our mindset or belief system is going to be revealed by our response to pressure. Will we cave to the temptation to have angry outbursts, or make wrong decisions based on our frustration. Will we compromise in our walk of holiness, or give in to fear? Make no mistake the pressure is real, but what we have chosen to invest into our hearts and minds is crucial because it will produce our response to that pressure. Colossians 3:16 instructs us to allow the word of God to dwell in our hearts richly. It's vital for every believer to treasure the Word of God as His own, personal advice, instruction, and promise, and to align our entire lives around it's timeless wisdom. When its life saturates us, it automatically flows out of our attitudes, words and actions - positioning us for victory without compromise.
