Pay attention to the Word.

"And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given. For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath."

Mark 4:24-25

Qualitative attention is the key to maximum apprehension of spiritual truth. The Amplified Bible says, "… Be careful what you are hearing. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you--and more [besides] will be given to you who hear."

It is not God that determines the effect of His Word in your life, it is you. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you. You determine what you will get out of the Word by the measure of focus and attention you give to the Word.



For instance, if you want the Word of God to impact a certain area of your life, you must be willing to feed on that particular subject in the Word of God, studying and meditating on it over and over again until the power in the Word is manifested in that area of your life.

Consistency in the Word of God will not only impart knowledge to you, it will also cause a release of the power of the Word into your life.
