Excerpt from Weekend Devotion

Here are some highlights from Pastor Greg's Weekend Devotion I read this morning.  I hope it blesses your heart as well.

  • Today, God primarily speaks to us through His Word. Therefore, the Bible is the bedrock of truth that we must measure all other truth by. We must not interpret the Bible in light of contemporary culture; we must interpret contemporary culture in the light of the Bible. It is the absolute.
  • Psalm 1 tells us that the blessed, or happy, person meditates in God's Word day and night. This is something we all need to do in our lives. And as we search the Word of God, He will speak to us. When you read the Bible, you are disciplining and preparing yourself to think and act biblically.
  • God has given us His Word, but we must look for His will. As you apply the principles of Scripture to your life, pray and ask the Lord to lead you. Nothing is too insignificant or too minute to pray about.

    As the Jewish proverb says, it is better to ask the way ten times than to take the wrong road once.
