Hello Meredith and welcome to the forum, Why read the Bible? Because it's the word of God. We are commanded by God to live by every word. Here are some verses that may help you. Romans 15:4 "For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope." The word is our Food. We need it to grow stronger in our Faith, to grow stronger in our walk. Matthew 4:4 "But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God" The word is our Offense and our Defense against he enemy. Proverbs 30:5 "Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him." Ephesians 6:17 "And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." We're Blessed: Luke 11:28 "But He said, "On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it" And lastly, The Word is alive: Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart." Hope this helps you some. God Bless bgg |
