Bible Verse of The Day – 9-19-23

Hebrews 4:2 (NKJV) 2 For indeed the gospel was preached to us as well as to them; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.

We can hear the gospel all day long, but that is not enough to save us. We have to believe what the Word of God is saying!

Are we stuck in a rut today?

We read our Bible, we attend church services, and we are taught. However, we are not growing.

Our heart has not changed, and our relationship with God is stagnant; never changing or growing.

Believing God’s word and taking steps to obey it is what will bring change to our hearts and all our situations.

Without believing in and walking out His word, we will continue to stay in the same place.

What we do will determine whether we grow or not.

Do we believe God parted the Red Sea, or is it just a great story to us?

Exodus 14:21 (NKJV) 21 Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, and the waters were divided.

Do we believe God restored Job and all his loss, giving him even more then he had to start off with?

Job 42:10 (NKJV) 10 And the Lord restored Job’s losses when he prayed for his friends. Indeed the Lord gave Job twice as much as he had before.

Do we believe it rained for 40 days, and Noah built a huge Ark to hold him, his family, and two of every kind of animal?

Genesis 8:6 (NKJV) 6 So it came to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made.

Do we believe Jesus Christ suffered for us, died on the cross for our sins, and rose on the third day?

Luke 24:46-47 (NKJV) 46 Then He said to them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, 47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

Remember, reading is not enough.

We must believe in our hearts that what we are reading is truth, and have faith that God will do mighty things in our life.

Amen.
