WHY DOES IT BENEFIT ME TO THINK ABOUT THE BIBLE?
Oh, how I love your instructions! I think about them all day long.
(Psalms 119:97 NLT)
1. I must take care of what I think, because that determines how I feel.
It is proven that what we think determines how we feel during the day and what we feel determines our actions, my actions formed my habits, my habits formed my character and my character will determine my destiny. That is why we benefit from thinking about the Word of God day and night.
2. I think about what I love, and I love what I think about a lot.
I think day and night about what I love.
The psalmist loved the decrees or instructions of God, that is why he intentionally remembered them during the day, but also at night.
3. I even sing about what I think.
(Psalms 119:54 NLT)
People make songs that speak about their feelings: Relationships, sex, politics, hate, rejection, life’s problems, depression, etc. because problems are what dominates their thoughts, and this makes them feel sick and unhappy.
I prefer to make songs that remind me of the promises of God, the benefits of God, etc.
Your decrees have been the theme of my songs… (Psalms 119:54 NTV)
(Psalms 119:97 NLT)
Think:
What do you think about all day?
Is the Word of God in your mind?
Knowing that your thoughts determine what you feel and do, what are your feelings and actions during the day?
