Read the Instructions: God's Manual for Life

A few weeks ago I finally broke down and actually purchased a new study Bible. It’s been fun and I’ve enjoyed some of the reference that I hadn’t had before. But something struck me as I was messing around with it and reading different books in the Bible…Read the instructions. So I’m like you and often just wish sometimes that life had an instruction manual? Well, actually God has given us one. It’s called The Bible; it’s our guide and source as we follow Jesus.Many in life are looking for answers to life's big questions of purpose and value, and all of that is in the Bible. God’s word has been given to us for our benefit. Jesus says when we build our life on His word, our life will stand strong no matter what comes our way.Too many people’s lives are destroyed when we choose to do the opposite of what’s in the Bible. Everything in the Bible is for your good and benefit, and when we read it and then ultimately start doing what it says, our life begins to grow and thrive in all areas.The fact that you’re reading this devotional means you’re willing to participate in discussion based on the Bible. So keep it up, over time you’ll see your life be transformed into a life full of peace, strength and purpose that can only come from following the principles and truth in God's word.The entire basis of this devotional for me has been for you to hold me accountable for staying in the word. Be Nice. Grace Wins.
