When Christians are truly God-Centered, they understand that they live according to the Word of God. In fact, not living according to God’s Word is to be as if dead. To be separated from God’s Word is to be separated from the very breath that gives life to the believer. Our souls cling to the dust and are dead apart from the living Word of God.
Word Study
My Soul – life, person, mind, creature, being.
Clings – to cling, cleave, adhere, stick.
Revive Me – to live, to be alive, to revive, to restore to life.
When we find ourselves in a spiritual rut we are revived by the same Word that sprung spiritual life in us. The Word of God is our anchor. The Holy Spirit of God gives us spiritual life and the Word of God is the spiritual food by which we live each day.
