It is easy for a Christian to 'get into' The Word of God. We can even occasionally behave, speak, and think in a Christ-like manner. Our problem is not in doing it, but in continuing to do it.
Jesus said, "If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed ..." John 8:31
Continuing in The Word implies being in it day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute, second by second, and 'moment by moment'.
If we continue to be in His Word, then we would always be in it and would never be out of it. That is a pretty tall order. That sounds like being the perfect Christian, a goal well worth striving for.
We need to be firmly rooted in The Word of God and not be fickle, falling in and out of it frequently and regularly. Do you read The Word of God daily? In a 24 hour day, how much time do you spend 'in The Word of God'?
We all could do much better, so let us endeavour to spend more time 'in The Word of God' with a goal of being continuously in His Word.
