February 14 Devotion

At our events, we pass out Bibles to our guests. We believe that this is the ideal way to conclude each event we have. We believe this because, we believe that the answer to every question that someone has can be found in the Bible. We believe that the Bible is God‘s word. We believe that it is our instruction manual to life. We also try to write something personal in each one we pass out. And we highlight Joshua 1:9: “This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” This is not only the verse that motivated us to found the ministry. This verse has some strong words for us to live by.

The Bible can teach us many things. If we apply what we read into our lives, the Bible will help us stay out of sin. If we are struggling with our “old” selves, the Bible can help keep us from going back to that lifestyle. It can help keep us on the narrow path of life. The path that leads us to eternity with Jesus. Understanding the Bible requires practice. What I mean by that is, it requires us to read it. Just as we practice different skills for sports, we need to practice what we read as the skills of life. And I personally believe that we need to read it and practice what we read daily.

So let today be the day that you begin reading and practicing each day. Let today be the day that you pray to God to ask him for wisdom about what you read. For guidance about what you read. If you’re not already, let today be the day that you truly try to live by the words you are reading. Let today be the day that you try to find ways to show others what is in the Bible. That you try to be the light for those that don’t know Jesus. And finally, let today be the day that you pray a prayer of thankfulness. Being thankful for the words that God provides us. Being thankful for the instructions that he gives us. Being thankful for providing the narrow path for us to follow. Being thankful for his love for us.
