Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law? Jesus replied: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Jesus Christ (Matt. 22:36-40 NIV)

Two things I ask of you, O Lord; do not refuse me before I die; Keep falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches but give me only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say “Who is the Lord?” Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of God.
Proverbs 30:7-9 NIV

The decision to be in God’s word daily will positively affect every decision you make after that. The opposite is also true. If you choose to neglect God’s Word on a regular basis, it will negatively affect every decision that you make.
