True Christian Development – Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo Devotional May 15th
(Let God’s Word Develop Your Personality)
TO THE BIBLE: Psalm 19:7
“The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.”
LET’S TALK
Your personal development as a Christian is unavoidable. And you can only grow and become more effective in God’s things if you make a conscious decision to study, meditate, and live by God’s Word. The Word of God builds you; it empowers, inspires, uplifts, motivates, and clarifies your purpose.
With that clarity of purpose, you know exactly what steps to take to fulfil your God-given destiny. He already planned the course and direction of your life; everything is programmed inside you, and He did the programming through His Word. It shows just how important the Word is.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 TLB says, “The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do what is right.
It is God’s way of making us well prepared at every point, fully equipped to do good to everyone.” It’s impossible for anyone whose life is regulated and propelled by the Word to fail or be disadvantaged.
Living by the Word makes you an absolute success: “This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success” (Joshua 1:8 AMPC).
Study and know the Scriptures for yourself. 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV says, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
When you study the Word meditatively, the Holy Spirit illuminates your spirit with amazing truths that’ll culture your mind in the direction of consistent growth, progress, and prosperity.
The Word of God is where the glory is. That glory constantly increases in your life as you meditate on the Word. This is the reason some Christians have more glory than others; it’s about yielding to and living the Word.

Speak:
The Word of God in me programmes me to be an absolute success in life; it propels, empowers, inspires, uplifts, motivates, and gives me clarity of purpose. Thank you, Lord, for guiding me into all truth and teaching me to make the right decisions that are consistent with your perfect will for me. My life is regulated and propelled by the Word; therefore, I’ll always win. Hallelujah!
