Invested In The Word

Being invested in God’s Word is treating Scripture as a life-changing revelation of Jesus Christ. The Bible is living and active, carrying the very breath of God. When we give time, attention, and love to its pages, we plant seeds that produce wisdom, strength, and unshakable faith. Every verse is a deposit of truth that enriches the soul far beyond earthly wealth.

Investment requires discipline. Just as a gardener tends the soil daily, we nurture our hearts by reading, meditating, and applying the Word. Over time, it shapes our thoughts, renews our minds, and directs our choices. The more we invest, the more our lives reflect the character of Christ.

Scripture declares, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly [as you teach and admonish and train one another with all wisdom]” (Colossians 3:16 AMP). When God’s Word lives richly within, we carry eternal treasure wherever we go.
