Today God says:
"My Word will help you grow"
He promises me:
"As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby". (1 Peter 2:2)
My response to the word:
I desire the sweet milk of God's Word because I know it will help me to grow spiritually. God's Word is more powerful than any two-edged sword: "For the Word of God is quick and powerful, and sharper than any two-edge sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and sprit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart".
My prayer:
Dear Lord, thank you for your Word which is the sword of the Spirit. The power of your Word will nourish me and help me grow spiritually throughout this day.
Today's scriptures:
"Also take salvation as your helmet and the Word of God as the sword that the Spirit supplies". (Eph. 6:17 GW) "God's Word is living and active". (Hebr. 4:12 GW) "You have been born again, not from a seed that can be destroyed, but through God's everlasting Word that can't be destroyed". (1 Peter 1:23 GW)
Quote for today:
You can be perfectly free to go to your Bible with assurance that you will find Jesus Christ everywhere in its pages. (A W Tozer)
On this day:
"Scriptures are taken from the King James Bible or those marked (GW) are from the God's Word Translation, used with permission".
