Bible Verse of The Day – 10-5-16

Hosea 4:6 (NKJV) 6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

Are we seeking the knowledge that God has for us?

Or do we just try to do everything on our own, with the knowledge we have learned from others? Or maybe we do everything based only our past experiences?

Knowledge is something that God offers to each one of us on a daily basis. Without it we are destroyed.

God gives us His word. Through it, we learn of Him and grow our relationship with Him.

God also gives us direction and instruction through His word. We have to take it and walk it out.

God offers us His forgiveness; it’s available to us anytime, all the time. We just have to ask Him for it.

These 3 things, knowing Him, following His directions, and asking for forgiveness when we need it, will bring us down a road leading to His knowledge.

1 Corinthians 1:9 (NKJV) 9 God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Pick up God’s word, get His knowledge, and follow His plan for your life!

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-2-14

Colossians 2:8 (NKJV) 8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.

People like to offer their opinions on lots of things.

Sadly, many of these people who speak out with their opinions are propagating false teachings and philosophies that get passed off as truth because it sounds good or it might have a hint of a scripture in it somewhere.

Many of these people end up being looked up to as authorities or teachers, as they use modern means of communications, and they develop large followings.

The end result of this is hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people being easily misled by these false teachings or empty philosophies.

Why? Because they lacked proper teaching in their lives, leaving themselves open to easy deceit.

And, sadly, so many of these things are passed around by Christians because they heard someone else say it and they failed to check God’s word to see if it was valid or not.

It is so very important that we, as followers of Christ, know God’s word and are discerning in every area of our lives.

God tells us to be diligent and know His word!

2 Timothy 2:15 (NKJV) 15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

As we learn more of His word, we will be less apt to fall for some of the crazy things that get passed off as truth in this world.

So, we urge you to learn God’s word and let Him sharpen your discernment so that you won’t be cheated through philosophy, empty deceit, the traditions of men or the principles of the world. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-15-14

Galatians 1:8 (NKJV) But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.

There are many “gospels”. There are so many messages that are preached and taught throughout the world. Sometimes it can be tough to filter out the “noise” and find the real thing.

But it’s super important that we know what we’re being taught. And we need to make sure it’s not “another gospel”.

So how do we know? How do we take what we hear and figure out if it’s the truth, a lie or just a twisted variation of the truth?

We measure it using God’s ruler. And what is God’s ruler? His word!

As followers of Christ, it’s very important that we take everything we hear and filter it through God’s word. We need to compare it to what God’s word actually says, not what we think it says.

If we do this, we will find ourselves being amazed at how many things we thought God’s word said, only to find that it’s not in there! It can be very eye-opening and revealing to see those things that we believed for so many years, just because someone spoke them, be torn down to expose the truth.

So when you find yourself saying something and repeating it as truth from God’s word, we’d like to challenge you to check it out. Verify that it’s really “in the book”. Make sure it’s truth, and not just a fragment of truth that has been handed down over the years.

It’s worth the effort.
