Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O Lord God of hosts.Jeremiah 15:16(KJV)
Over the Centuries,men of great minds have penned down great words which continue to inspire generations after them.However,the greatest book ever written remains the Bible.The Bible which consists of the Old and New testaments is a collection of 66 books written by men who were inspired by the Holy Spirit.It contains the mind of God,the state of man and shows us the way of salvation.
The Bible is God's love letter to us and provides answers to all of life's questions.It is food for the soul,health to the body and life to the Spirit.According to Gideons International,"It should fill the memory,rule the heart and guide the feet.Read it slowly,frequently and prayerfully.It is a mine of wealth,a paradise of glory and a river of pleasure".
According to F.B. Meyer(One of history's great Bible teachers),"Read the Bible not as a newspaper,but as a love letter; if a cluster of heavenly fruit hangs within your reach,gather it.If a promise lies upon the page as a blank cheque,cash it.If a prayer is recorded,launch as a feathered arrow from the bow of your desire".
Let us read God's love letter and more than that,may we be doers of the Word.
READ YOUR BIBLE AND AND PRAY EVERYDAY!!!
