A. If we live in JESUS, His WORDS remain in us and in our hearts

"If you live in Me [abide vitally united to Me] and My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts,"

Psalms 119:11 (Amplified Bible)

Your word have I laid up in my heart, that I might not sin against You.

We hid or laid GOD's WORDS in our lives and in our hearts by reading them frequently, meditating them, memorizing them, mentioning and declaring them as promises in our prayers, mentioning it through out the day, looking at it frequently, that's how it is, and most of all, hearing it preached every mid week services, prayer meetings, and Sunday services. We don't want to leave our minds unoccupied or idle but we always in our solitude time, meditate and memorize GOD'S WORDS.

Proverbs 4:4 (Amplified Bible)

He taught me and said to me, Let your heart hold fast my words; keep my commandments and live.

By keeping GOD's WORDS in our heart and life, we tend to live them out, we live GOD's eternal life here on earth and by becoming like the LORD JESUS.

John 17:3 (Amplified Bible)

And this is eternal life: [it means] to know (to perceive, recognize, become acquainted with, and understand) You, the only true and real God, and [likewise] to know Him, Jesus [as the] Christ (the Anointed One, the Messiah), Whom You have sent.

1 John 4:17 (Amplified Bible)

In this [union and communion with Him] love is brought to completion and attains perfection with us, that we may have confidence for the day of judgment [with assurance and boldness to face Him], because as He is, so are we in this world.

Ephesians 6:4 (Amplified Bible)

Fathers, do not irritate and provoke your children to anger [do not exasperate them to resentment], but rear them [tenderly] in the training and discipline and the counsel and admonition of the Lord.

An abseentee father who works abroad, never goes to church, always occupied with work, can never train, discipline his wife and children through the counsel and admonition of the LORD JESUS.

Colossians 3:16 (Amplified Bible)

Let the word [spoken by] Christ (the Messiah) have its home [in your hearts and minds] and dwell in you in [all its] richness, as you teach and admonish and train one another in all insight and intelligence and wisdom [in spiritual things, and as you sing] psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, making melody to God with [His] grace in your hearts.
