The Spirit Guides Us
Time after time the
Scriptures help us make sense out of life’s puzzles; it confirms its divine
origin again and again as it makes sense out of our experience in the real
world and points the way to harmony.
The Holy Spirit is the
divine author of all Scripture. The eternal Holy Spirit, the Spirit of love and
delight between the Father and the Son, is the author of Scripture. Here are a
few scriptures that speak about the Word of God…
Therefore, it is true (Psalm
119:142) and altogether reliable (Hebrews 6:18).
It is powerful, working its
purpose in our hearts (1 Thessalonians 2:13) and not returning empty to the One
who sent it (Isaiah 55:10–11).
It is pure, like silver
refined in a furnace seven times (Psalm 12:6).
It is sanctifying (John
17:17).
It gives life (Psalm 119:37,
50, 93, 107; John 6:63; Matthew 4:4).
It makes wise (Psalm 19:7;
119:99–100).
It gives joy (Psalm 19:8;
119:16, 92, 111, 143, 174) and promises great reward (Psalm 19:11).
It gives strength to the
weak (Psalm 119:28) and comfort to the distraught (Psalm 119:76) and guidance
to the perplexed (Psalm 119:105) and salvation to the lost (Psalm 119:155; 2
Timothy 3:15).
The wisdom of God in
Scripture is inexhaustible. If this doctrine is true, then the implications are
so profound and far-reaching that every part of our lives should be affected.
I pray you spend some quite time reflecting on the truth of God's Word and seal it in you heart.
Be Blessed and be a blessing!
