Knowledge and Understanding

SCRIPTURE
"To those who listen to my teaching, more understanding will be given, and they will have an abundance of knowledge. But for those who are not listening, even what little understanding they have will be taken away from them." Matthew 13:12

OBSERVATION
If I don't focus on God's word and soak it in word for word, then I will be missing out on the knowledge God has in store for me.

APPLICATION
This scripture teaches me that I need to devote myself to God's word. Through God's word I will gain knowledge. I need to stay focused on his word in order to reap all that God has in store for me.

PRAYER
Dear Lord help me to devote myself to your word. I pray that I keep a focused mind and that I truly listen to what your word tells us. I pray that I seek the gifts that you have for me. I pray for wisdom gained by your word. That way I can use my gained wisdom to defeat the attacks of the enemy. I pray for the abundance of knowledge in your name. Amen.
