Reading the Word of God

All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for instruction, for conviction, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

For everything that was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have hope.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You.

Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth.
