Psalm 119:18 says “Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law”
DAILY READING; Matthew 10:26-42; Leviticus 9-10; Proverbs 23
In 2007, Time magazine stated that the Bible “has done more to shape literature, history, entertainment and culture than any book ever written”.
That indeed is the truth. The Bible is the most widely circulated book in the world and has been translated into more languages than any other book. The Bible is the world’s bestselling book, breaking all records known to man. An estimated 5 billion copies of the Bible have been distributed down the centuries. And in recent years over a 100 million copies are given away every year.
The influence of the Bible can be found in every department of human activity. Its contents have inspired the greatest poets, artists, musicians, scientists, philosophers, and affected every area of human endeavor. The Bible has been the mightiest factor of all in shaping the moral progress of the human race. Indeed the Bible’s influence on Western civilization has been monumental.
However, while most of the world tends to see only the cultural or moral influence of the Bible, the fact remains that the Bible is a book of power with the ability to change lives. .
Reading the Bible as a history book may add some historic knowledge to you, but reading it as God’s Word will bring transformation to your life.
God’s Word is the carrier of God’s power, because where the Word of the king is there is power. Once God’s Word gains entrance into you, it will bring about the manifestation of signs and wonders in your life.
Psalm 119:18 says “Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law”
Indeed God’s Word is what turns us into living wonders. When we engage the power in the Word, every issue of life begins to answer to us. Through the application of God’s Word we are healed, delivered and have good success in life.
We engage the power in the Word through meditating upon it, until it gains entrance into our heart. It is the entrance of the Word that gives light. And once that light begins to shine in us, it dispels every darkness and ignites faith in our hearts. And as we begin to declare the Word we have believed, we will begin to see miracles, signs and wonders around us.
PRAYER: Lord, please through Your Word, transform me daily more and more into the image of Christ.. As I study Your Word, let Your Power therein, bring about a definite positive change in my life in Jesus Name.
