Be in the Word of God

Poll Question (how often are you in the Word

How often are we in the Word?

I feel like we should just be in the Word Sundays and Mondays

About His Word:

1. God’s Word is a writing to us from THE CREATOR

2. God’s Word is magnified above His Name Psalm 138:2

God puts His Word above His name like wait a tickdoesn't it say in Acts 4:12

Acts 4:12 NLT12 There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.”

so by the name of Jesus we are saved fro the eternal fires of Hell. ...And God puts His Word over His name??? That speaks volumes!

3.God’s Word became man

In John 1:14 we learn that God’s Word became a man - which is JesusWe know how precious Jesus is … Teaching me that how I think I would treat Jesus is how i would treat the Bible How would you treat Jesus? If you were going to hang out with Him? I kinda picture Jaydee hereJaydee would be making Jesus the best pour overs and and cooking whatever Jesus wanted Well we should treat God’s Word like that.

4. God’s Word is alive and powerful

In Hebrews 4:12 it says

Hebrews 4:12 NKJV12 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.

As we read the Word it reads us… Will H. Houghton (ex-president of Moody Bible Institute) said“Lay hold of the Bible until the Bible lays hold of you.” It is more then just a book.and so we should treat it way beyond just some ordinary book.

5. It is how we receive faith (Romans 10:17)

Romans 10:17 NKJV17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

6. It is a guide through life (Ps 119:105)

Psalm 119:105 NKJV105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path.

7. God’s Word is eternal

Isaiah 40:8 NKJV8 The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever.”

Mark 13:31 NKJV31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

8. It is able to teach, correct, change, and instruct you. 2 Timothy 3:16

9. By it we are sanctified - Eph. 5:26 & James 1:21

10. By His word we wont stumble Psalm 17:4–5

11. You excel in strength if you heed it -Psalm 103:20-
