Scripture

Everywhere I turn I see these messages about “turning to scripture” or “we need to be in the Bible”! I have never seen this message so much as I have lately! Anyone else? I feel like God is truly speaking to me because that’s the message I need to see/hear to have a Hope that only God can provide!

I become so Discouraged looking at our country today and all the Evil that surrounds us! God is speaking to me “be in scripture” ! And I am sharing that message and speaking to you – BE IN SCRIPTURE! Get into God’s word, this is our ONLY truth in today’s society and the the only Truth we can trust!

This was an email; I received today from Roy Graham speaking about a devotional from his father Franklin Graham and the importance of the Bible and being in Scripture:
“That’s why it’s my fervent hope and prayer that we will have a resurgence of interest and esteem for God’s Word. Any renewal or revival movement must have the Bible as the centerpiece, for ‘faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ’ (Romans 10:17, ESV). God saves us from sin, and He does so as the truth of God’s Word is clearly proclaimed. – Roy Graham

If you need some guidance – check out this Podcast “The Bible Recap” it takes you through the whole Bible in one year for just a few minutes a day. I’m loving it and it’s so simple and short that I can do it on a quick break at work or driving the kiddos to school. You can also go deeper in it if you’d like, they have a few different plans.

I pray you have time today to be in the Scripture, even if it’s for a few minutes, try and make this priority and I will too 🙏🏼 🤟🏼 Blessings, Christy Jo
