All Roads Lead To Where?
All Roads Lead To Where?
I have considered my ways and have turned my steps to your statutes. - Psalm 119:59
Don't you just love to see people take the Word of God seriously? For years I have approached the Bible, book by book, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. I go into each chapter on four different roads. The more ways you enter, the more you see. Road one: What does the chapter say? Here I stop and write a summary in my own words. Road two: What does it say that I don't understand? Here I stop and write down the problems and difficulties. Road three: What does it say in other portions of Scripture? Here is where I cross-reference the verses in the chapter. The Bible is its own best commentary, so I want to throw the light of the rest of Scripture on the passage I'm studying. Road four: What does it say to me? Here is where I pray over the passage and write out a personal application God has shown me for my own life. And then I seek to do it. I encourage you to make the Bible a personal message from the heart of God to you. Prayer Lord, as I read Your Word today, I welcome Your personal word to me, and I will obey it. Amen. To Ponder It is not enough simply to know what the Word says; we must obey it.
