WHY?
Good Book – Part 5
God’s Word…
…reveals God’s thoughts and ways.
“‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,’ declares the Lord. ‘As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish…SO IS MY WORD that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.’” Isaiah 55:8-11 (NIV)
…guides my decisions.
“I gain understanding from your precepts; therefore I hate every wrong path. Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” Psalm 119:104-105 (NIV)
“I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” Psalm 119:11 (NIV)
…feeds my spirit.
“When your words came, I ate them; they were my joy and my heart’s delight…” Jeremiah 15:16a (NIV)
“As newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby.” 1 Peter 2:2 (NKJV)
…builds my faith.
“So faith comes from HEARING, and hearing through the WORD OF CHRIST.” Romans 10:17 (ESV)
“Then Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus. As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch said, ‘Look, here is water. What can stand in the way of my being baptized?’ And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water and Philip baptized him.” Acts 8:35-38 (NIV)
…is my only offensive weapon.
“…the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” Ephesians 6:17 (NIV)
