Download or read book Overview of God s Word The True North of our Faith written by Riaan Engelbrecht and published by Riaan Engelbrecht. This book was released on 2023-05-24 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is an epic masterpiece. There is a continuous flow to the Bible, and it does flow like a story. It is God’s story, told through numerous characters, events, adventures, trials, tribulations, and situations. There is nothing grander or more splendid than God’s story! This book is not a comprehensive study of the Bible, therefore, it is not a blow-by-blow account of every book and every story. Rather, it is a sweeping glance at what the Bible offers. We can only know the heart of God, who God truly is and understand His commandments, His teachings, His truths and values when we study and know the Word. The Bible is truly God’s Word and should shape our lives daily. If one reads the Bible as led by the Spirit, without a preconceived bias for finding errors or based on one’s education or understanding, one will find it to be a coherent, consistent, and relatively easy-to-understand book of God. It is the Truth, and so it is the light and lamp unto our feet and path. The Bible must be treated by disciples as all-sufficient and inerrant (without error) to lead us, guide us, teach us and show us the way and the will of God. The Word of God is real, alive, and powerful and the final authority on God’s will. As believers of God, we must know the Word, study it, love it, cherish it and abide by it for it is the source of eternal life, faith, salvation, freedom, spiritual food, growth, blessedness, purity, guidance, comfort, spiritual victory, assurance and of joy. May we know it to find our purpose and the meaning of life according to a great and awesome God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you were to pick one word for the year, what would it be? Invite . . . Abide . . . Balance . . . Simplify . . . ? Every January, many of us proclaim our word for the year, choosing something inspiring that will help us set our intention for the coming months. But what would happen if rather than choosing one word for an entire year (because let's face it, some of us forget by March), we focused on one good word each day--one thought-provoking, spiritually relevant, and encouraging word that reveals the many lovely and delightful truths of who Jesus is in our lives? One Good Word a Day, by the creators of the online community, The Ruth Experience, offers simple, but deeply spiritual meditations that will help readers linger on one word each day so they can identify and reflect on how Jesus as the Word influences their daily lives. Jesus is more than one word. He offers us abundance, hope, peace, kindness, courage, mercy, and so much more. One Good Word a Day reminds readers that in Christ, we find all we need to live encouraged and uplifted every day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With persuasive instruction and personal examples, George Martin shows you how to read and understand Scripture in ways that help us hear what God is saying to us and that draw us nearer to him in prayer. In the most extensive revision yet of his best-selling classic Reading Scripture as the Word of God, this edition brings God's Word to life for beginners through seasoned veterans of Bible study. How can I get more out of reading Scripture? What can I do to understand Scripture more clearly? How can I hear what God is saying to me through Scripture? How should I apply the messages of the Bible to my life? Thus, the Bible becomes a window to God, so He can speak to our hearts as well as our heads. The book begins with practical suggestions for reading Scripture in order to understand both the context and the purpose for which it was written. It goes on to discuss how God reveals himself through the words of Scripture and the role of the Holy Spirit as He speaks directly to you through the text. Study guides at the end of each chapter, interesting sidebars, and directions to internet resources will stimulate personal reflection and also provide the basis for small-group discussion of this eminently practical, yet heart-centered, approach to understanding the Scriptures.

Perhaps you've never picked up the Bible, or maybe you read it every day. It's possible you are drawn to Jesus Christ and want to know more, or it could be that you've followed Him for years. Wherever you are in your journey, 52 Days of Faith will use the familiar format of 52 Days of Grace including Scripture, engaging narrative full of anecdotes, quotes and personal examples, probing questions and meaningful prayer to help you: go deeper in your walk with Jesus Christ point you to the answers and give you a new perspective on familiar passages challenge you to grow legs to your faith and put into practice what you glean seriously examine your heart, motivations and attitudes test widely-held yet unbiblical beliefs walk with you through the discovery of the importance of faith in the life of anyone who is serious about knowing God better.

Or as counselor and soul care minister Vern Salter of The Navigators says, "In this devotional Cindy Boose has a workshop for a deeper more effective faith ... I hope that you will 'sweat' a little with me through the timely challenges of 52 Days of Faith." And as Kip McCormick, pastor, author and retired Army Colonel exhorts, 52 Days of Faith succeeds in "bringing God's word as an applicable and important part of our daily lives. Read this book! You won't be disappointed."

Download or read book Living the Word written by Kelsey Garman and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living the Word is a devotional commentary and a practical guide to finding happiness through obedience to God's Word regardless of life's circumstances. It walks with the psalmist verse by verse through each of the 22 stanzas of Psalm 119 as he struggles to live for God in a hostile world. It sits with him in the dust of despair, joins him in the school of affliction and sings with him as he celebrates the wonders of God's Word. The psalmist was persecuted and oppressed by wicked men. He was often discouraged and sometimes depressed, yet he always found joy and comfort in God's perfect and eternal Word. Living the Word captures the psalmist's love for God's Word and challenges the reader to make it his own. It journeys with him across the mountains and valleys of his earthly pilgrimage, and distills his wisdom into practical applications for daily living. Kelsey Garman has studied and taught the Bible for nearly 60 years. He has been a pastor; an advertising and public relations executive; a newspaper reporter and columnist; a freelance magazine and newspaper writer with hundreds of articles to his credit, and a Christian financial advisor. He is the founder of the Fellowship of Christian Investors, and served as its president for 21 years. During that time he was the voice of the daily radio broadcast "Financial Insights," and conducted financial seminars in churches throughout America. He retired in 2004 and now serves as editor of the Faith in the Ozarks page and writes a financial column for the Community Free Press in Springfield, Missouri. Mr. Garman attended Oklahoma Baptist University and Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary, and did additional post graduate studies at the University of Central Arkansas, Liberty University and the College of Financial Planning.

"If we want to better our lives, our model for living faith should be Jesus Christ." "Many people don't have the faith described in the Bible because they do not believe or practice what Jesus said: "If you love Me, keep My commandments" (John 14:15)." "The Bible tells us salvation is by God's grace and is not earned by good works "lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9). But we are saved by grace through faith. The danger we face is that our faith will die if we neglect our salvation by not living a life of obedience to God (Hebrews 2:1-3)." "The examples and testimonies of the men and women we read about in Hebrews 11 show us we can believe God." "We should pray to God for faith, and we should pray often for it (Luke 18:1)." "Living a life of prayer, Bible study and humble obedience to God clarifies and strengthens our faith."
