1. If we want the Word of God to function properly in our experience, we need to be "plugged in" to the divine current whenever we read it.

11. We contact this living One through the Word and are infused with Him and saturated with Him so that He becomes our life and our very being.
12. If we praise the Lord in the meetings without praising Him in our daily life, our meetings will be a performance, and we shall be actors.
