2 Timothy 3:16
King James Version (KJV)
16 All
scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
Before I was a believer I always questioned the
bible and wondered why people held on to His word for any reason. I use to say
to my mom “why do you need a book to tell you how to live your life?!” It wasn’t
an actual question that I cared to hear the answer to at the time. That was
clearly a statement that was made by an ignorant me not knowing that this “book”
held power, authority, purpose and healing in it.
I believe that there are thousands if not millions
of people out there that have either said or thought the same thing that I have
said to my mom years ago.
The scriptures are here for us to learn from and to
put in practice what He has given to us. There are scriptures in the bible that
will forever change our lives and make us into better people. For most of us we
will have our biggest question answered, “what is our purpose in life?” God
will tell us what our purpose is if we call on Him.
*side note- Whenever you are trying to get answers
from God you MUST acknowledge Him as your Lord and savior otherwise it will be
that much harder to get the answers you want and need. God can’t just speak to
unbeliever because they are not open to receive His word, they do not know His
word, they do not have a relationship with Him and nor would they be able to
process the word spoken forth.
God is a righteous god and will not leave us to fend
for ourselves, that is why He left us His word to serve as a teaching and
learning tool to help us choose and stay on the right path.
It is vital that we accept Him and His word in order
to live our lives as we ought to with the abundance that no other can offer.
