SO MAY IT BE



SO MAY IT BE


Your locks will be iron and bronze, And according to your days, so will your leisurely walk be. Deu 33:25


God is very protective of those who not only believe, but also obey His Word. The more I study His Word in the Bible, the more I see of Him. I long so to know everything there is to know about Him. How He thinks, how He walks, talks, sees, hears, touches and loves.


The Bible can be a clear and understandable book of knowledge and truth to some while to others it is confounding, full of unending mysteries that don't seem to resonate or make much sense.


Those who were early followers of Jesus found themselves READING and LIVING the Bible as it was being written [The New Testament]. They called on Jesus to teach them how to properly understand His method of what to share, and when, and with whom;


And the disciples came and said to Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables?" Jesus answered them, "To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted. --
"So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Mat 13:10-11,--Mat 6:34


Humans have this insatiable need to know how things work. We tend to take things apart to discover how they function. Many times we see the hidden mechanism and still scratch our heads in awe and mystery not understanding what we are seeing. Its much the same when we begin to search and discover that which is in plain sight, hidden in the Holy Scriptures. As we read the Bible, He begins to open our eyes to understand the lessons that are printed in plain view, to make connections that marvelously unravels one Biblical treasure after another! We are strengthened through His Word through our belief!


He gives strength to the weary, And to him who lacks might He increases power. --And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong. Isa 40:29,-- 2Co 12:9-10


When we cannot understand the Bible, it is testimony that we have no natural inherent ability what-so-ever to understand the Lord's ways. We must call upon Him. We must believe. As our belief increases, the Lord opens our eyes, our ears and our hearts to understand His ways. The weaker we are, in our humble approach for knowledge, the stronger we become through His will in our belief!



I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.
Php 4:13





HAVE YOU READ YOUR BIBLE TODAY?
