Bible Verse of The Day – 4-18-20

Romans 10:17 (NKJV) 17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

God’s word is what helps us to walk in faith. If we don’t have His word in us, the faith we have will be weak. We need to be constantly building it up by keeping His word fresh and new in us.

We’ve got to be hearing Him and what He is saying through His words. And in order to do this, we’ve got to make an effort to spend time reading it and soaking it up.

You know, like one of those books we enjoy and can wait to get home and read. All day we think about getting home so we can get back into it. That’s how the Bible needs to become for us.

It has to be THE book that has priority. The book that calls our name. The book that speaks to us even when we’d rather be doing something else.

Read its words. Stay connected, and we won’t get off track.

We will see change come to us and our situation as we begin to grow in our faith.

WE have to do it, though. No one else can grow our faith for us. Read, and read some more. Hear what it is that God is saying in His word. Take it to heart and enjoy it!!

This book was written for us. It’s our faith builder! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-16-19

Psalm 119:130 (NKJV) 130 The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.

God’s word is the most valuable thing we can have introduced into our lives.

His word is a light to our path (Psalm 119:105).

It is living and powerful (Hebrews 4:12).

His word gives life (Psalm 119:50).

His word cleanses us (Psalm 119:9).

If we keep it in our hearts, it keeps us from sinning (Psalm 119:11).

It revives us (Psalm 119:25).

It strengthens us when we are weak (Psalm 119:28).

His word brings us salvation (Psalm 119:41).

It’s safe to say that we need God’s word hidden in our hearts. Without it we will struggle through each day, trying to find our way.

With it, we grow stronger, bolder, more courageous, more righteous, kinder and more compassionate.

But here’s the key that unlocks all of this; we have to read it!

God’s word can only help us if we get it in us, where it changes us from the inside, out.

Be sure that we are taking time to feed on His word each and every day. We will never regret it.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-29-19

Matthew 4:1 (NKJV) 1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

Jesus fasted for 40 days. And at the end of that time, the devil came to tempt Him.

Because Jesus hadn’t eaten for 40 days, the devil offered Jesus what he thought would be the most likely thing to get Him to fall; food.

Jesus rebuffed the devil, telling him that man doesn’t live by bread alone, but by the word of God.

Matthew 4:4 (NKJV) 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”

The devil tempted Him again, taunting Him and encouraging Him to throw Himself off of the high place they were on, telling Jesus that God’s angels would surely protect Him if He decided to do so.

Again, Jesus countered the devil, telling him that we should not tempt God.

Matthew 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’ ”

The third attempt, the devil took Jesus to a very high place. He showed Jesus great kingdoms of the world and all of their glory, telling Him that if He would bow down to him, all of this could be His.

Once again, Jesus rebuked the devil, telling him to leave, and reminding him that we shall worship and serve God, and only God.

Matthew 4:10 (NKJV) 10 Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”

So, if Jesus, the Son of God relied on God’s word to rebuke the devil, how much more should we also rely on God’s word to defend ourselves from the wiles of the enemy?

How much more should we hide God’s word in our hearts to make sure we can stand strong when the pressure of temptation tries its hardest to drive us backwards and bring us to our knees?

Psalm 119:11 (NKJV) 11 Your word I have hidden in my heart, That I might not sin against You.

His word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. Let’s follow that light and stand strong in Him!

Psalm 119:105 (NKJV) 105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

Bible Verse of The Day – 6-2-18

John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

Knowing the word of God and what He says about certain things is our weapon against the enemy. It helps protect us from his lies, deceit and temptation.

If we don’t know what God says about something, it makes it easier for us to fall into the devil’s trap. We need to educate ourselves and stay fresh and revived.

Let God revive us daily, keeping ourselves close enough to Him so that we will learn something new on a regular basis. We will have a revival in our hearts every day.

Do you need to be revived? Get in God’s word! Don’t wait. Get in there and start reading, even if it’s a little at a time to start off. Dig deep. You will come out refreshed, renewed and revived!

You will see your heart change right before your eyes, and you will have life and life more abundantly.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-26-18

Psalm 119:105 (NKJV) 105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

Staying in God’s Word will keep us close to Him.

The devil loves to keep us busy and distracted with a million and one things to do, people pulling on us from every direction, just to keep us out of the word of God. Why? Because God’s Word that we put in us will feed us, fill us and keep us healthy and balanced, moving us forward every day.

It’s not good to give up our time with God to do other things. If we have an emergency, or something comes up and we have to change things up a bit, that’s OK. But, make sure we get our time in with Him. He will start us off every day on the right track.

There have been days when I am completely in a tizzy before I even get out of bed. But as soon as I get myself in the word and in prayer, God just sets me straight. Isn’t He AWESOME?!

You see the enemy will work hard at bringing in distractions even before we get out of bed. Our heads will get so full of thoughts of what needs to be done that we lose our focus before we even start the day.

So, hold the Word close to us. Keep it within reach, so that when we need it, it will be right at our fingertips! Just open it up and start reading.

God is faithful to help us through each day. Stay close to Him.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-6-17

2 Timothy 3:16-17 (NKJV) 16 All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

Being equipped in the word of God will help us to discern the teachings, movements and errors that pop up now and then.

His word helps us in every area of our life. It helps us to know whether or not we are being fooled. It equips us to know how to handle certain situations that we may face. It keeps us balanced in our hearts and prevents us from taking things to extremes, etc.

It’s sad to think that good, innocent people get off track because they don’t know what the word says at times.

They love God and want to do what is right. But sometimes they get caught up in the wrong thing because they don’t know what the scripture says regarding it.

There are Christians right now, as we speak, who are walking a path that’s far from the truth, because of things they heard or saw, and they unwittingly accepted them as truth.

It’s important that, as believers, we know the scriptures. And it is equally as important that we understand them in their proper context.

Why? Because if we don’t know what God’s word says, we will listen to whatever may sound good, or whatever may feel good at the time. And we may mistake it as God’s truth.

We need to remember that not everything God says or does feels good. He brings perfect balance through His word, even when it might not feel pleasant.

God’s word helps us and protects us from being misled by those things that might sound like truth, but can actually lead us into error and away from God’s truth.

Psalm 33:4 (NKJV) 4 For the word of the Lord is right, And all His work is done in truth.

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.
