Proverbs 7: My son, keep my words, And treasure my commands within you.
2 Keep my commands and live, And my law as the apple of your eye.”
Stopping bad habits is hard, it is way easier to learn good habits. Today, will you commit to making God’s laws the “Apple of your eye?”
First, make daily Bible reading a habit, the more chapters the better.
Second, think often of the benefits of doing things God’s way. Blessings, avoiding destruction, peace, contentment, and joy.
Third, making God’s law the apple of our eyes gives us hope. I strive to make God’s law the apple of my eye and I have great hope for the future. I am finding joy, and my joy increases every time that I focus more on making God’s laws the apple of my eye.
Fourth, it sustains us in hard times: Psalm 119:92 Unless Your law had been my delight, I would then have perished in my affliction.”
Consider saying every hour today:
“I will likely fall during hard times unless God’s law has become my delight.”
Finally, consider memorizing: “I will make God’s law The apple of my eye.”
A great tool for going to war with bad habits.
