For
The Word Of God
Is
Alive And Powerful.
It
is Sharper Than The Sharpest Two-Edged Sword …
Scripture
Hebrews
4
12 For
the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the
sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between
joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires.
13 Nothing
in all creation is hidden from God. Everything is naked and exposed
before his eyes, and he is the one to whom we are accountable.
14 So
then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus
the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe.
15 This
High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of
the same testings we do, yet he did not sin.
16 So
let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will
receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it
most.
Observation
The
Word of God, the Bible, is not like any other book that you and I
might pick up and read. No, it is unlike any other book. The Word of
God is alive and it is powerful. We don't just read it … It reads
us! It is like a mirror and it shows us what we are like.
James
1:22-25
22 But
don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says.
Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.
25 But
if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if
you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will
bless you for doing it.
Application
As
I read God's Word and God's Word reads me I will do my best to obey
what God says for me to do.
How
about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, show me as I read Your Word what needs to change in my life
and then help me to make the necessary changes. Speak to me every day
through Your Word as I read it. Correct me when I need to be
corrected. Change the direction of my life when I am going off
course. Don't let me get sidetracked with stuff that is not important
to You. You are King of Kings and Lord of Lords. You are worthy of
all praise.
I
pray for my family. Keep them safe.
