Devotional: God's Enduring Word

"The grass withers, And the flower falls off, But the word of the Lord endures forever.”
- And this is the word which was preached to you. 1 Peter 1:25

"Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away."-Jesus


God's Word stands and forever it remains. Throughout history the devil has been trying to use men to suppress, hinder, & muddy the propagation of God's Word and Truths.Religious orders have strangled & burned Christians like Tyndale for their works on translation. Reading the Bible was banned in the 1400's. In the 1500's, Bibles & its owners were hunted, burned at the stake during the dark ages. Yet we see the reach & power of Scriptures have never been blocked nor cut off. It remains fresh, alive, relevant to this very day.

The Holy Bible is very valuable. God has preserved the written Word for it holds the key to the source & issues of life. Today, I am grateful that I have freedom to hold the Scriptures in my hand. & I pray that I would prioritize the reading & meditation of it.& I pray that I would value its counsel more than the opinions of peers and society.

Choose Gratitude!

Gratitude  is how you deal with worry and anxiety.  A grateful heart  helps you get over yourself. As Christians, we are called to practice gratitude every moment, not just when life is going smoothly but especially in the hard moments.
