Many people ask me the same question. It comes from people who do not have a relationship with Christ. It comes from new believers just after they accept Christ. It comes from church members who are working on certain areas of their life.

Here's the question: "Pastor Mickey, how do you live the Christian life?"

Now for some of you this may sound like a very elementary question but I beg to differ. There are many people who want to live the Christian life that will be pleasing to our Heavenly Father.

So how do we do it?

There maybe certain areas in your life that you just can't seem to get a hold of. Be it your temper, your mouth, the computer, your thoughts, etc... So I will ask the questions again for you, "Pastor Mickey, how do you live the christian life?"

Psalms 119:9 gives us the answer:
"How can a young man keep his way pure? By keeping it according to Thy Word."

The only way you can live the Christian life is by God's word. You have to read it, meditate on it, memorize it and apply it. It has to be so much a part of your life that you can't live without it. This scripture text takes on so much more than just reading a verse a day. It is presenting the picture of God's word becoming so alive in you that you mimic exactly what it says.

What does God say about my temper?
What does God say about my mouth?
What does God say about the computer and my thoughts?

Find it in God's word and live by it!

Prayer: "God, you have already given us the manual for which to live. Now help us to take the initiative to not only read it but to live it."
