Proverbs 4:21-23 TPT [21] Fill your thoughts with my words until they penetrate deep into your spirit. [22] Then, as you unwrap my words, they will impart true life and radiant health into the very core of your being. [23] So above all, guard the affections of your heart, for they affect all that you are. Pay attention to the welfare of your innermost being, for from there flows the wellspring of life.
Life hacks can be defined as tips, techniques or strategies for accomplishing familiar tasks with ease and efficiently. Proverbs teaches us that the entire Word of God contains life-altering, health restoring “hacks”. In the scripture, God shares His life secrets so that we can have and enjoy life in abundance, till it overflows becoming a spring of godlikeness flowing from our innermost being flooding our existence with “true life” as well as “radiant health”. O’ what a planner God is and o’ what a plan!
John 7:37-39 KJV [37] In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. [38] He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. [39] (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given ; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
John writes in chapter 7 that God’s Word is consumable! Once consumed, God’s Word penetrates to the core of your being where it cannot be contained and it’s secret identity is revealed. There should be a warning label on every Bible that reads, “Caution consuming large quantities will result in excesses of the Holy Ghost! Has been known to cause symptoms of drunkenness, uncharacteristic behavior, outbreaks of unsearchable wisdom, altered tongues, accurate vision, dreams that come true, incomprehensible peace, indescribable joy, unfathomable healing remedies, extreme unshakable faith and pleasures forever more!” O’ what a planner, o’ what a plan!

Acts 2:1-4,14-18 TPT [1] On the day Pentecost was being fulfilled, all the disciples were gathered in one place. [2] Suddenly they heard the sound of a violent blast of wind rushing into the house from out of the heavenly realm. The roar of the wind was so overpowering it was all anyone could bear! [3] Then all at once a pillar of fire appeared before their eyes. It separated into tongues of fire that engulfed each one of them. [4] They were all filled and equipped with the Holy Spirit and were inspired to speak in tongues-empowered by the Spirit to speak in languages they had never learned! [14] Peter stood up with the eleven apostles and shouted to the crowd. "Listen carefully, my fellow Jews and residents of Jerusalem. You need to clearly understand what's happening here. [15] These people are not drunk like you think they are, for it is only nine o'clock in the morning. [16] This is the fulfillment of what was prophesied through the prophet Joel, for God says: [17] 'This is what I will do in the last days-I will pour out my Spirit on everybody and cause your sons and daughters to prophesy, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will experience dreams from God. [18] The Holy Spirit will come upon all my servants, men and women alike, and they will prophesy.
