The *AMP* translation says, *(20) **“My son, attend to my words, consent and submit to my saying.
(21) Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart.
(22) For they are life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.”*
*God* is *saying* to *give His Word 1st place** in our lives*, He’s *also** **telling us* to *practice** **putting our ear to His Word*.
*God* is *saying* here in (*V.
20*) from the *AMP*, *“to consent and submit”* *ourselves to what He says in His Word*.
*James expresses the same thought*.
*I) **JAMES 1:22**.*
*A) **Hearing the Word* *means* *to understand it*.
*How* *can you be a doer of the Word* *if you don’t understand it*, *or** **have* any *revelation knowledge* of it?
*1) **Hearing* *also* *implies* that *you agree with it* and *consent* to it.
*a) **We cannot consent** **or* even *submit* *to something* that *we have no knowledge of*.
*b) **That’s why we are admonished* *to get into the Word* of God.
*2) *Back in *(PRO 4:21)* *it says in reference to the Word**, **“Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart”.*
*a) *In the *NIV* it says, *“Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart.”*
*b) *I think *it’s clear* that *He’s saying*, *Let God’s Word continually be in your sight*.
*3) *Also in that *same V*. it says, *“Keep them in the midst of thine heart.”*
*a) *We are to *keep** **or** **guard* the *Word in our heart*.
*b) **We’re to keep the Word* *as a reality* in our *heart*.
*c) *When we see the word *“heart”* in our bibles it *usually refers* to our *“spirits.”*
*d) *We are to *keep His Words in our spirits*.
*B) **Jesus made* a *statement* that *tells us **why* it’s *so important* to *keep* the *Word** **in our hearts* or *spirits*.
*1) **JOHN 6:63*.
*2) *The word for *“life”* in the *Greek* is *“ZOE”* *which is* the *God kind of life.*
*a) *It’s *life in the absolute sense*.
*b) **Life* *as the Father has it*.
*3) **This is** **why* *we need to keep* God’s *Word* *in our heart* or spirit.
*a) **His Word is life** to our spirit*.
*b) **It produces life** in our lives*.
*c) **Once you have it in your heart*, *then you can allow the Word* *to manifest* itself *in your body* in the way of *divine health**....*
*C) **We know* that *He wants* His children to walk in *divine health*.
*1) **And He’s provided it for us*.
*2) **But*, *God points out* *that only the diligent in His Word** **will come to the reality of that truth.*
*3) *Go back with me to *PRO 4:22*.
*a) *Notice it says, *“FIND THEM”* this *requires* a *search*, and *not* just *any kind of search*, but a *diligent one*.
*II) **When you desire to know more* on a *certain subject*, you need to *dig deep* into the Word of God.
*A) *Then *when* you *finish* your *search* you need to *search your search**.*
*1) **How* are you going to *search your search?*
*a) *By *meditating on your findings*.
*b) *Do you know what the word *meditate means?*
*c) *It means *“TO PONDER, TO THINK ON, TO IMAGINE, TO CONSIDER.”*
*2) **When* you *find* your *scriptures* *that* will *fit the need* that’s *in your life*, *ask yourself*, “*What is God saying to me* *thru these Vs?”*
*a) **How does this truth affect me?*
*b) **How do I apply what God has said?*
*B) **Lets look at a few scriptures* to *find out what the Word says** **about people* *who search diligently*.
*1) **LUKE 15:3-7* This *V* tells us *something about diligence*.
*a) *Notice the *man*, in (*V.
4*), *searches* *until he finds it.*
*b) **Then after he finds* *what he was searching for*, *he rejoices**.*
*c) **When your diligently seeking* after the *Word* of God *your going to find* *your need met** **and** **joy will come*.

*C) **PRO 10:4*.
*1) **PRO 12:24**.*
*The NIV* translation *says*, *“Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in slave labor”*.
*2) **PRO 13:4*.
The *NIV* says *FULLY SATISFIED*.
*THE LIVING BIBLE *says, *“Lazy people want much but get little, while the diligent are prospering.”*
*a) *The *NEW KING JAMES *words like this, *“The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; But the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.”*
*3) **PRO 21:5* The *NIV* SAYS, *“The plans of the diligent lead to profit.”*
*4) **PRO 22:29*.
*5) *If you want a few *more examples of being diligent* in the Word of God, look up (*ACTS 17:11-12**); OR (**ACTS 18:24-25**)*.
*III) **GOD WANTS US DILIGENT*, NOT ONLY DOES HE “*WANT*” US TO BE DILIGENT, BUT NEXT WEEK WE’LL FIND OUT THAT HE *“REQUIRES IT.”*
