Journey: 30 Days to a Close Relationship With GodSample

Scripture is the written Word of God. There are other times when God speaks that are not a part of Scripture, but the Bible is the most authoritative. If you want to know who God is, how he works, and what he wants, just read the Bible.

This verse explains some of the functions of the Bible. It's good for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness. It's not much different than parenting, except kids don't come with a parenting manual!

It’s pretty amazing to think that if you want to hear the voice of God, you don't have to go far! It's all written down for us. What are some times that God is speaking to you through the Bible? Read Psalm 1 as another point of reference to the value of the Word of God.

It's time to refocus. It doesn't matter if it's the morning, evening, or your lunch break, take a few minutes to think about God. Bring to mind how he's been faithful to you. Think of his power and love for you.

Prayer: Lord, I recognize that today is a gift from you. Help me to steward this gift and use it to bring you honor. I want to bring a smile to your face. Let me see how you're working and let me be a part of it.
