When it comes to reading our Bible, three things can happen. We can starve, become fat, or get pregnant. We starve – spiritually – when we don’t get enough of God’s Word. We become fat when we read the Word but don’t apply it to our lives. Sometimes, this happens because people don’t know how to do this step and other times people simply go through the motions of doing “the right thing”.
When we read the Bible and get revelation from God, it’s like we become pregnant with the truth of God’s Word. Just like in natural pregnancy, there is a time of growth in the womb and a preparation for birth.
When we are pregnant with a truth in the Word of God – a miraculous birth will take place. What are you believing God for? Maybe it’s a physical or emotional healing. Perhaps it’s a financial or relational breakthrough. Whatever it is – get pregnant! Get in the Word and allow God to speak to you.
His Word is alive and it will bring life in our lives when we plant the Word in our hearts and allow God to speak to us. Revelation requires us to be open to allow God to show us truth – and He wants to do that!
Dare to step out of your comfort zone. Ask God to reveal His Word to you. When His Word becomes alive in your heart, passion arises and the journey of life becomes exciting and fun.
