Brother Keith Daniel shares the powerful testimony of 224 hardened reformatory boys whose lives were permanently transformed by the Gospel. The secret to their lifelong faithfulness was the daily discipline of 'soaking' in the Holy Scriptures.

• 1Daily saturation in the Bible is the only guaranteed protection against spiritual backsliding.
• 2The degree to which you soak in God's Word determines the degree to which you will hate and abhor evil.
• 3Satan’s primary goal for the believer is not to tempt them with depravity, but to divert them from the Word of God.
• 4True spiritual breakthrough often requires a 'broken heart' and a level of desperation that only the Holy Spirit can provide.
• 5Spiritual survival in a hostile environment requires radical courage and mutual accountability in the Scriptures.

Practical ways to apply this message to your life.

• Establish a 'guarded, treasured, and nurtured' daily time for unhurried Bible reading as your highest priority.
• When facing spiritual dryness or temptation, check your 'soaking' levels in the Word before looking for other solutions.
• Practice 'broken-hearted' prayer for the lost, asking God to give you His own grief for souls.
• Identify specific areas where the 'fear of man' prevents you from taking a public stand for Christ and pray for the courage to be 'separated'.
• Find a fellow believer to practice mutual accountability, asking each other regularly: 'Have you soaked yourself in the Word today?'

• Thank God for His Word and the truths revealed in this message.
• Pray for understanding and wisdom to apply what you've learned.
• Ask the Holy Spirit to help you live out these truths in your daily life.
