Have you savored God’s Word today?

George Mueller, after having read the Bible through one hundred times with increasing delight, made this statement: "I look upon it as a lost day when I have not had a good time over the Word of God".

He explained "Friends often say, ‘I have so much to do, so many people to see, I cannot find time for Scripture study.’ Perhaps there are not many who have more to do than I. For more than 50 years I have never known one day when I had not more business than I could get through. For 4 years I have had annually about 30,000 letters, and most of these have passed through my own hands."

"Then, as pastor of a church with 1,200 believers, great has been my care. Besides, I have had charge of live immense orphanages; also, at my publishing depot, the printing and circulating of millions of tracts, books, and Bibles; but I have always made it a rule never to begin work until I have had a good season with God and His Word. The blessing I have received has been wonderful."

Will you too, make it a rule not to venture into your day till you have savored His Word?

George Mueller 1805 – 1898
Pastor/Bible Teacher
(He cared for thousands of orphans in England and never once appealed for a single dollar to support his work – God provided every time – and on time!)
