His Word


We had a speaker come in a few weeks ago and he had a message I will never forget. Well, it wasn't the message I remember, but it was the message within the message. He basically shared his passion for Jesus and that we should all live and die for Christ in our actions and behaviors everyday. But it was the scriptures he used that got my attention. In fact, it was the amount of God'd word that this young man had hidden in his heart. He almost couldn't help himself as he would be going from one point to the next without the Holy Spirit prompting him to say a scripture that referenced his point. I left thinking and pondering the value in this and the challenge to hide God's word in my heart. In my devotions the scripture that came up is one that I now have memorized....pretty much.....it takes me a second to go through it....but I think I have it!! It is 2 Timothy 3:16-17 and it talks about why I think that we all need to understand and crave God's word even more. It says that " All Scripture is God-Breathed and is useful for teaching, correcting, rebuking and training in righteousness. So that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." That tells me that we know that every single word in His Bible came from God and that its useful for many things in our life. We need it so we can be ready to make a difference in this world!! So next time you are asking God for wisdom and he's directing you to his word know that there is a good reason that he wants you to dive into it and digest it for eternal things.
