The Word
9:02 PMAll Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
II Timothy 3:16-17 NKJV
Hear the Word. Read the Word. Say the Word. Be the Word.
The Bible is the combination of these scriptures. It speaks of the truth, inspiration, instruction, guide, correction and all things that will equip a person as he or she lives. It reveals a lot to us that we may know the heart of God and know our purpose. Through the Word we can show to the world the truth about God and how He loves us.
While I was reading this chapter, memories came out of my mind about the talks we had during our kick-off for our nourish sessions at the office. One said "I hope there is no reading of the Bible", and the other one said, "yes I agree, because it is difficult to understand" (in Filipino language ofcourse hihi). I said to myself, "waaahh how to grow deep with God without the Word?" If we are to discuss only specific verses just like what we do in a mass then I believe it is not enough. And then, this verse came out of nowhere. It was a message to me that this verse can be a way to convince them to read the Word.
I thank the Lord for the instruction, for His message. I should tell them this verse soon and I should testify that in every situation I go through, the Lord talks to me through His Word. Our comprehension is not limited. As we read the Word let us ask God that the Holy Spirit be upon us to help us understand His message although the wordings are complex and difficult for us to comprehend. By grace and love coming from the Lord, He will not let us go astray or be harmed with what He really meant.
