In Acts 2:42-47, the first church in Jerusalem is described as “devoted.” Dictionary.com defines the word devoted as, “to concentrate on a particular pursuit, occupation, purpose, cause.” Luke says that the early believers concentrated on the teaching of the apostles, that same teaching we have today in the pages of the Bible. They concentrated on fellowship or sharing life together as the family of God. They pursued worship and prayer. They devoted themselves to living the life of Jesus in a world that needs to see the Savior. Embedding the Bible is about devotion. It is about learning to concentrate on the things that are important to the heart of God. When we embed the Bible in our lives, we embrace the importance of sharing life, seeking God, serving others, and studying the Bible. We concentrate on aligning our hearts with His heart. This week as you embed the Bible in your heart, take a moment to check your alignment. What needs more devotion? What is shining in your life that invites those around you to walk closer to Jesus?
