“Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands
is not quickly broken.”
Ecclesiastes 4:12
Here is a three stranded chord of extraordinary
strength:
Memorize, meditate on and model the Word of God in
your life.
When you combine these three and surrender yourself to
the Holy Spirit you become an unstoppable force for the Kingdom of God.
Who among us has not felt emboldened when you are
standing shoulder to shoulder with a friend or older brother?
You are willing to do things you might not venture to
do when you are alone.
There is indeed strength in numbers!
It is good to memorize scripture.
It is good to meditate on scripture.
It is good and essential to model scripture in our
life.
It is far, far better and effective when we combine
the three.
Today, take that verse you have committed to memory,
spend some time mulling it over and digging deeper into its meaning and most
importantly ask the Holy Spirit for the opportunities throughout the day to
model it to others.
That is a three stranded chord not easily broken!
