The Bible has touched millions of lives throughout history—male and female, adult and child, rich and poor, scholar and uneducated.
No matter how long we've been Christ-followers, it's good to periodically remember the wonderful character of God's Word.
It's like no other book because it's alive. It's alive because God is alive and His words bring life.
"For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword" Hebrews 4:12
God used men to write His words. But they are His words, not men's words.
"All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness" 2 Timothy 3:16
"Prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but
prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the
Holy Spirit." 2 Peter 1:21
Jesus is the perfect expression of Truth and He shares the Name Logos with God's written word:
"The Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son." John 1:14
Each day let's come to God asking to see new and wonderful things in His Word (Psalm 119:18).
