"The Word of God is a lamp by night, a light by day, and a delight at all times."

Charles Spurgeon

"Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it." Psalm 119:140

When I read this verse in my devotion today, I couldn't help but notice 'very' before the word 'pure.'  

Then I started thinking about how Purell is only 99.9 % pure; Lysol is only 99.9% pure, and yet we trust both products to sanitize our hands and surfaces.

If God's Word is 100% pure, (and it is) why do we tend to only trust it 99.9 % of the time depending on what our situation or circumstances of life may be?

God's word is 100% pure.  There are no defects.  There is nothing lacking.  It does not need to be mixed with any other thing to make it 100% pure:  it is VERY pure.

So, how often do I bathe myself in God's Word?

Because His Word is pure, when I read it, when I practice its precepts, when I accept its promises, when I allow it to identify sin in my life so that I can confess it and forsake it, then my heart, life and service to my Lord will become clear, pure and fit for His use.

His Word promises to cleanse me from all unrighteousness.

Because I can trust God's Word completely, I love it, and the amount of time I spend in God's Word will measure my love for His Word.

I want to be purified by God's Word...

    100% Every day...

        But that's just me!

"If your mind is filled with the Word of God, then it can't be filled with impure thoughts."

David Jeremiah
