Tag: What the Bible says about God’s word

Bible Verse of The Day – 10-31-16

Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) 12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

The word of God can help us in our daily walk. It is alive!

As we read God’s word, He will direct our steps and show us what to do and what not to do at different times.

The word of God is sharper than any two – edged sword. Now that’s pretty sharp!

But it has to be. It has to reach those areas in us. And sometimes it needs to go deep to get our attention. It has to reach those places that are hidden, that if not removed completely can cause us to backslide or fall at times.

The word of God is a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart. God knows us better than we will ever know ourselves. We can be sure of this.

He can change those things in us that we dislike and that don’t bring honor to Him; those things that get us in trouble. But only if we let Him shine a light on those areas. He will show us how to get free and stay free.

God’s WORD is what we need every day. Just a little will go a long way.

Take His word to heart and let it live through us! Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-28-16

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

His word. It’s more than most people, even believers, realize.

His word is life to dead spirits. It quickens them… breathes new life into them.

His word is sustenance for the living. Without it, we would wither and die. But with it, we can live life to the fullest, growing in our relationship with Him and flourishing in it.

God’s word is the light that guides our feet as we walk the path of life. It shows us where to step when it seems like we can’t see anything but darkness in front of us.

His word causes us to rise up when we fall. It gives us new hope where there seems to be none. It lights a flame within us where there was none.

His word is everything we need in life. We can have every possible material thing. We can even claim to follow God. But without His word, we are empty and lifeless.

John 17:17 (NKJV) 17 Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.

Without His word we will wander, without direction, longing for something, anything, to make us feel alive again.

God’s word is everything. There is nothing that can take its place.

So if you’re feeling empty or lifeless today, don’t reach for your phone. Don’t turn on the TV. Don’t spend time playing another computer or video game.

Don’t reach out to a friend or acquaintance, looking for someone to talk to. Reach for His word.

Drink it in. Devour it. Eat, sleep and breathe His word. Let it revive you, resuscitate you and energize you!

Spend time in His word, learning of God and gaining wisdom and understanding. Do this, and your life will never lack meaning or purpose.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-19-16

Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) 12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

The day I opened my very own Bible and began to read God’s word, I felt God’s personal touch. I had been saved when I was a child and spent a lot of years in church. The Church taught me many things. But I seemed to have been missing an important part.

I would wait until the doors opened, Wed. or Sunday, etc., to get God’s word for me. I relied on my Pastors to feed me. But it’s not all up to the Pastor.

Pastors need us at times. They need our prayers just as much as we need them and theirs. They are people with a big responsibility and they need a healthy congregation to join them in the vision and the call that God has given them.

One of the things I learned is that I spent more time on my own than in Church. Out of a 7 day week, 2 days maybe in Church, but not always. Sometimes just once. And sometimes not even that. Try feeding our natural bodies once or twice a week, or nothing at all, and see where that gets us.

I’ll tell you where it gets me. Hungry, tired, and WEAK. That’s what I was and it was NOT my Pastor’s fault. It was my own.

Just as our natural bodies need to be fed daily to remain balanced, healthy and strong, our spirit man needs the same. And I needed to learn how to get God on my own, when NO Pastors were around.

We are in a battle every day. This battle doesn’t stop and wait for us until Wed night or Sunday morning so we can get our answer from the pulpit. No! The battle keeps on and if we don’t know what to do, we lose ground. We get pushed back and if we get pushed back far enough, we can lose everything.

Do we feel like we are in that place today? Are we losing ground instead of gaining? Is our Spirit man famished, because of lack of food?

Taking time and reading God’s word daily will fill that emptiness. We will get strong. We will win battles, and have a more personal, one on ONE walk with HIM!

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-19-15

Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) 12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Living and powerful. Those are the perfect words to describe God’s Word.

God’s Word is more than just printed text on paper pages.

His word isn’t something that we just read. We need to breathe it in, like oxygen. We need to consume it like food that sustains us, for that’s what it is; our sustenance.

It’s nourishment to our souls, water to our parched spirits, strength for the weary and new life to our dry bones.

No matter what we’re facing, God’s word can lift us up and breathe new life into our tired being and give us a new perspective.

There’s a reason why His word, the Bible, has endured all of these centuries, through thousands and thousands of wars across the globe, through terrible tyrannic governments that tried so hard to destroy it and wipe it from the face of the earth, through famines and desolation across many nations.

His word is alive! It is powerful!

So we encourage you today to immerse yourself in it. Soak it in and let Him speak to you through it. Don’t read it with a motive. Just let it penetrate you. Then, when you do this, you will begin to understand what it means when the scripture says that the word of God is living and powerful!

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-31-15

John 5:39,40 (NKJV) 39 You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; and these are they which testify of Me. 40 But you are not willing to come to Me that you may have life.

The scriptures are God’s words that point us to His Son, Jesus Christ; our Lord and Savior. But in order to find salvation and have eternal life, we have to do more than just read them. We have to come to Jesus.

How do we come to Jesus?

We come just as we are. We don’t need to do anything to change ourselves before we come to Him. As we come to Him and give our heart and our life to Him, He will change us, help us and give us eternal life.

Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. When we believe in Him, repent of our sins and ask Him to save us, we will have eternal life.

John 14:6 (NKJV) 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

Come to Him today. Let Him help you.

Maybe we are saved and we’ve been a Christian for years, but our life doesn’t seem to be changing; it’s in constant turmoil. Jesus wants us to also come to Him and talk to Him about these things, so that He may be able to help us make the changes we need to make and take the steps that will get us free from the things that are holding us down.

1 Peter 5:7 (NKJV) 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.
