Tag: Bible verses about the importance of reading and studying God’s word

Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV) 12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Many of us are looking for answers. We have questions and concerns. We want to better understand God and who He is. Maybe we don’t understand why certain things happen the way they do.

This is common for all of us. We think, and we try to sort things out in our heads. We try to make sense of the things we see and hear. Sometimes we can, but most of the time we just can’t seem to put all of the pieces together in a way that makes sense.

God’s word is the key that unlocks all of these things for us. Some people call it “the how-to manual for life”. It’s true. It is that. But it is so much more!

God’s word goes beyond life here on earth and helps give us a better understanding of all things spiritual. He uses it to teach us how to live here, and how to prepare for life with Him in eternity.

Yes, that seems like a lot to swallow. A lot to try to comprehend. But He doesn’t ask us to try to comprehend it all. He asks us to trust Him. And it’s His word that teaches us how to do that, too, to trust Him.

If we are not spending time in His word on a regular basis, we are living this life malnourished and without understanding. And we are fighting our battles under-equipped and unprepared, losing more than we are winning.

It’s time for us all to dig deep into His word, grow in our understanding and become the strong, mature believers He has called us to be.
