''Keep the Book and the Book will keep You''

“Keep His Word and the Word Will Keep You” Text: Proverbs 6:20–22

In this episode, we are reminded of the power and protection found in God’s Word. The command is clear—“Keep thy father’s commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother.” When we keep God’s Word close to our hearts, the Word will, in turn, keep us. Psalm 119 shows the deep love and delight the psalmist had for the law of the Lord: “O how love I thy law! It is my meditation all the day.” The believer who treasures the Word finds both guidance and peace—“Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.”

The Word of God guides us—it directs our steps and keeps us on the right path. It grows us by shaping our hearts and minds into the image of Christ. It gears us up, equipping us to face temptation and trials. It grabs us—holding our attention and affection when the world tries to pull us away. And the Word guards us, protecting us from evil influences and sin’s destruction.

When we learn to keep His commandments, we discover the promise that “it shall keep thee.” God’s Word is not just a book to be read but a living guide to be obeyed and loved. It becomes a gift that brings peace, protection, and power to the believer who treasures it. So remember: Keep His Word—and the Word will keep you.
