In Front of My Eyes

2 Samuel 22:23

"For all his judgments were before me: and as for his statutes, I did not depart from them."

David attempted to keep God's command before him, in front of him, in his face, where he could not escape then or ignore them. How does one do that?

First, memorizing God's Word. Hide His words in your heart. They should be within you, not something you have to go find. When a situation confronts you, the Word of God should be your guide.

Second, read His Word daily. But don't just read, study. Seek to understand through prayer and research what God is saying to you.

Third, listen to the Holy Spirit. God's own Spirit resides in each of His children. He is the "Still Small Voice" that we must strive to hear. Block out the distractions. Focus.

How have I tried to keep God's command before me today?
