The entrance of Your words gives light. It gives understanding to the simple. “Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day. You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies; for they are ever with me.…Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Psalm 119:97– 98, 105).
Too many ignore the Bible without realizing what damage they do.
The Bible is dynamite.
Scripture is unexplored territory to many, although “the gold of that land is good” (Genesis 2:12). To unfasten the clasps of the Bible and turn these healing leaves needs the fingers of faith. Yet “ faith comes by…the word of God” (Romans 10:17).
God gives us faith to read it so we can gather faith: if we want it. To get faith to read the Word, just read it.
It is self-proving. Its chemistry explodes and brings us confidence about itself. “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (Romans 10:17) and “hearing you will hear” (Matthew 13:14).
Abraham believed God when God spoke.
The Creator fitted us with the power to recognize His voice, just as Abraham recognized it. That is what we will do now:
let the Bible speak for itself to bring you faith!
