Unlike the last and previous years, which God had already impressed me His Words that I will cling on for the whole year even before the new year arrived, this time I had a hard time knowing His Words for me for 2024.
So I kept asking Him to reveal His Word for me this 2024. And then I realized that perhaps I am not hearing His Word for me this year because I am lacking personal time with His Word. I got so used to my relationship with Him to the point that I became complacent. And although I already have an intimate relationship with God, it's not a reason to forget reading about His Word. Although He has already put His laws into my heart and mind, as long as we are free to open up and read a Bible, we must take advantage of this freedom.
So I am sharing you His Words for me this year:
1.
Jam 1:22: "But be you doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves."
2.
Prov 1:20-30: "Wisdom cries aloud outside; she raises her voice in the open square: She cries in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she utters her words, saying, How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? and the scoffers delight in their scoffing, and fools hate knowledge? Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you. Because I have called, and you refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; But you have ignored all my counsel, and would have none of my reproof: I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear comes; When your terror comes as desolation, and your destruction comes as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish comes upon you. Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: Because they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: They would have none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof."
3.
Prov 2:1-2: "My son, if you will receive my words, and lay up my commandments with you; So that you incline your ear unto wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;"
4.
Prov 1:8: "My son, hear the instruction of your father, and forsake not the law of your mother:"
5.
Eph 6:1-3: "Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honor your father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; That it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth."
