Seven Vital Things The Word of God Does In You



Paul was writing to Timothy, and in 2 Timothy 3:15-17, and he gave Brother Timothy some important information about The Word of God. Let me encourage you to read it. And when you do, you will learn Seven vital things the Word of God does in you, and these are:

  1. The Word makes you wise in salvation ways.
  2. It is breathed out by God. Or it inspires you.
  3. It is profitable.
  4. It teaches you what God wants you to know, be and do.
  5. It teaches you what God wants you to stop.
  6. It corrects your course of life
  7. It instructs you in right way living to equip you to do God's work.
Therefore, wisdom teaches that when we read, hear, study, meditate and memorize the Word of God, if we really want to hear God, through His Son, Jesus, by the power of The Holy Spirit, we would do well to ask ...
  1.  What is the wisdom that God is wanting me to apply from this Word.
  2. What is God's inspiration for me?
  3. What is it that God wants me to know, be or do as a result of intersecting this Word?
  4. What is the profit in this that I may bear God's fruit. Psalm 1:3
  5. Is there anything I need to stop?
  6. Is my life on the course God wants me on?
  7. As God instructs me, what is the right way this Word is directing me to follow?
Yup! The Word of God is vital to your well being and your journey. As you are in the Word of God, look for what God wants you to hear by asking these vital questions regarding the seven things the Word of God is designed to do in your life, my life and in all our lives.

God Bless You,

Stepping Stones For Victorious Christ Centered Living #20 Shake A Little Salt

  The Challenge of Having An Unsavory Life. We live in a world where a whole lot of people are suffering:  Many struggle spiritually. Others,  because of their spiritual issue, have emotional struggles. Still others have relationships that are strained. Financial issues also may be added into the mix; additionally, physical challenges,  or health challenges, are a part of this. Mix a little high pace, and rarely slowing down in life, and you can see something is really going on impacting life in a negative way. In other words  all of these, plus any number of other things experienced in the 21st century, contribute to people experiencing unsavory lives. Jesus Speaking to You and M e Jesus has something to say about this. And He wants each of us to help out by, first beginning to embrace our identity. He wants us "become" so we match our identity, and if we don't, we really miss out and mess up.  Check out what He says, as He expressly tells us who we are. A...

Stepping Stones For Victorious Christ Centered Living #1 Therefore, anyone who hears the words of mine-- and puts them into practice -- is like a wise man who built his house on a rock: The rain came down, the streams rose, the winds blew, and beat against the house; yet, it did not fall, because it had its foundation on THE ROCK! BUT Everyone who hears these words of mine, and does NOT put them into practice, is like a foolish man who built his house on sand: The rain came down, the streams rose, the winds blew, and beat against the house. And IT FELL WITH A GREAT CRASH! Jesus (Matthew 7:24-27 S T O R M S Storms seem to come into everyone's life. Some experience more, and others experience less; however, the winds of adversity do, indeed, come. Some even howl like a Category-5  hurricane that beats relentlessly on the shores of people's lives. Dear Christ Follower, some of you know precisely what I am saying. And I am here to tell you Jesus provides us with Stepping Stones fo...

2024 Let God Help Make Your Life Beautiful

Ready or Not Here It Comes Leap year is upon us. Yep! We get to have one extra day on the calendar of 2024. And as the new year opens up before our very eyes, whatever we bring into this year -- good, bad, happy or sad -- will be a part of the fabric of this new year. For some of us this will be challenging. Why? Because some are really struggling with what is going on in our culture. Many are having to grapple with spiritual, emotional, relational, financial and/or physical struggles. And just because people are saying "HAPPY NEW YEAR" these challenges are still very real. So, how are we to get ready for this if the new year, in focus, appears anything but happy? But Remember -- God I have learned that when life meets us head on, it is important to think of all these challenges, but remember God:  As Christ Followers, you and I are not in this journey alone, and as the ancient wisdom of Ecclesiastes 3:11a teaches, "God makes ALL things beautiful in it's time." ...
