Living and doing Your Word (a prayer; heaven and hell)

You are my Rock, Refuge, Redeemer, and Strength.

The importance of being in the Word is stressed repeatedly through reading the Bible. Do not let me lose sight of this, Adonai. Let this give me more of a fondness of Your Word. Your Word is a precious treasure. Help me not lose sight of this joy. Of the privilege it is that I can read and hear Your Word. That You give the opportunity to know Your Word and live it. Thank You. Let me not forget these things.

Your Word brings and gives life. Eternal life to those who do what it says. Living Your Word prevents me from sin and being wicked. It prevents me from death and eternal judgment and fire. Living Your Word prevents me from going to hell (death) and gives me eternal life (heaven).

Help me avoid what You say not to do. Help me be mindful of this.

Help me not forget the entirety of the Bible. Help me learn, remember, and live 100% (the Old and New Testaments; all 66 books) and no less. Let me not give one Testament more consideration that the other or one book over all 66.

Your Word is Your instruction book on how I can live the best life. And the only way I can know that and live it is to be continually in it and placing great value on it.

Your Word is how You talk to me.

Your Word is eternal life to those who live it and death (which is eternal judgment) to those who ignore it or refuse to follow it.

Let me not miss its importance or how much of a treasure it is.

Thank You for Your Word and for the life it can bring.


See John 8:51.
