How precious is it really?

Just how precious is it really? The Word of God. The reason we read the Scriptures? Is it because, we’re told we should read it? Do we read it because, it’s the Christian thing to do? Do we read it because, it’s something we check off on our to-do list? The reason for me is mainly because, it’s the Word of God and it’s the way I can get to know Him better. “But don’t let it faze you. Stick with what you learned and believed, sure of the integrity of your teachers—why, you took in the sacred Scriptures with your mother’s milk! There’s nothing like the written Word of God for showing you the way to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. Every part of Scripture is God-breathed and useful one way or another—showing us truth, exposing our rebellion, correcting our mistakes, training us to live God’s way. Through the Word we are put together and shaped up for the tasks God has for us.” 2 Timothy 3:14-17 (MSG)

It’s His love letter to us. “And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe.” 1 Thessalonians 2:13 (NIV) “God’s love is meteoric, his loyalty astronomic, His purpose titanic, his verdicts oceanic. Yet in his largeness nothing gets lost; Not a man, not a mouse, slips through the cracks.” Psalm 36:5-6 (MSG)

Reading His Word is spending time with the One and Only. Time in the Word is time well spent. It is life changing and life giving. You fall more in love with Jesus every time you read it. You can’t help but want to spend more and more time in the Scriptures because, it’s when you hear His heartbeat for you. My dear friends the Word of God is precious!

Thank you for reading! May you have a blessed day!
