5 Days Of Understanding The Bible From Always Nearনমুনা

Finally, we must make those verses our own through faith and obedience. For a stronger faith, focus your mental energy on the verses God gives you. That’s the best exercise of the soul. Where there is a command, obey it. Where there is a prayer, offer it. Where there is a truth, believe it. Where there is a message, repeat it. Where there is a promise, claim it by faith.

Last year I took my grandson, Elijah, hiking. At one point the trail wound along a steep embankment. Elijah scampered up like a deer, but I had trouble. Fortunately, the engineers had installed eyebolts into the stone and had run a thick, knotted rope through them. By grabbing the knots in the rope, I ascended the mountainside more easily.

The knotted rope of God’s promises runs through the length of the Bible, attached by the eyebolts of His watchful concern and bolted into the rock of His unchanging faithfulness. Find your own Bible verses. Mark them. Memorize some of them. Meditate on them day and night and make them your own through faith and obedience.

When quiet in my house I sit,

Thy Book be my companion still,

My joy Thy sayings to repeat,

Talk o’er the records of Thy will,

And search the oracles divine,

Till every heartfelt word be mine.

Charles Wesley, “When Quiet in My House I Sit”
