First, you read the Bible to know God, the Creator of the universe, who desires to have a personal and eternal relationship with you. Second, you read the Bible to discover His plan for your life. What other book can make such claims?
God gives second chances. He offers a path forward, a joyous and fulfilling life—one that can make a profound difference in the world—no matter what we’ve done.
God doesn’t promise us a trouble-free existence. He doesn’t promise that we will understand everything He does—or allows. But He does promise to stay with us every step of the way.
The devil may be wicked, but he isn’t stupid. He approaches us with a practiced subtlety. To resist him, we must stay close to God and His Word. He is helpless against them.
The devil knows what will happen if the seeds of Scripture start to take root in a believer’s life. He knows that a heart in which the words of the Bible are hidden is hard to access. He knows that a life guided by the Word of God is hard to disrupt.
The devil directs his fury at God’s people. He is helpless to dislodge believers from God’s hand. He cannot alter the amazing eternity that awaits us. But he can and does wreak as much havoc as possible in our lives here on earth. The devil’s time is short, so he’s determined to make the most of it.
This is how our world is right now. It’s dark. And it’s been dark for a long time. We start to think that it will always be this way. But it won’t. The darkness will not last forever. Christ is going to come back again. Be ready for His return.
God will work His plan and purpose in the life of anyone who asks Him to. All we have to do is humbly approach Him, admit that our efforts aren’t enough, and ask Him to guide us.
