The Word of God keeps us spiritually healthy which brings the joy, peace, and grace of God into our lives. Grace is the divine power of God given by Him to help us to live lives that are pleasing to Him. Does that mean that doing what we feel is right or pleasing to God? No.

We should consult God about everything. And while waiting on Him, resting, trusting, and learning to operate in His strength and power and not our own. WAIT. REST. REPEAT. This process will help us to avoid certain mistakes. And gives us avenues not to fall into sin. Letting the grace of God not guilt and shame abound in our lives daily.

The Word of God gives a jolt to the spirit, kick starting it, then fueling it so that it can function at a higher capacity.

Colossians 3:16 encourages believers to let "The Word of Christ dwell richly...”.

Dwelling "richly" is allowing the Word to take permanent residence in us, filling us to the brim daily, allowing complete influence over our lives.

Learn to enjoy the Word. Let it be satisfying to you like your favorite food or beverage. God’s word is fresh, new, and exciting. It’s an adventure discovering more and more every day. Look forward to spending time with God in His word. Because he surely looks forward to spending time with you.
