You’d have time for it if you realized how much being without it has cost you. If you knew how many mistakes you’ve made—how much time you’ve had to spend in the lawyer’s office, or the banker’s office, trying to straighten out some problem you got into because you weren’t walking in the wisdom of God’s Word—you’d realize you can’t do without it.
There’s not anything more beneficial to you than attending to God’s Word, because that’s where your success is in every area of life. So do whatever it takes to spend time in the Word every day. If you have to get up early in the morning, do it. If you have to go to bed later at night, do it. Whether you’re a businessman, a doctor, a homemaker or a construction worker doesn’t matter. If you want to succeed, you’ve got to have the Word. It’s vital to your well-being and necessary for your victory!
Invest Fully in the Word
You don’t have to limit your investment to just the amount of Word you can fit into your daily devotional time, either. Proverbs 4:20-21 says to incline your ear to the Word and keep it in front of your eyes to the point that it’s always in the midst of your heart.
Although that might sound hard to do, with the technology available these days, it’s actually easy. In addition to reading your Bible at home and going to meetings where you can hear the anointed Word being preached in person, you can listen to the Word in your car, on your CD player, your smartphone or whatever other device you use. You can even turn on the television or the computer and watch Word-filled broadcasts like "Believer’s Voice of Victory."
Back when Ken and I first started putting the Word in our hearts, we didn’t have all those resources available to us. We could go to meetings, of course, (although there weren’t nearly as many people preaching the word of faith then as there are now) and we could read the Bible. But other than that, the only way we could hear the Word was by listening to messages by Brother Kenneth E. Hagin on a big box-like tape recorder that played reel-to-reel tapes.
