The Bible
The Bible isn??™t the means by which we??™re saved;
it??™s an introduction to Jesus and the love He gave.
It??™s a love letter dictated by our Heavenly Father,
explaining salvation isn??™t ours by our trying harder.
It??™s His interpretation of life in the past,
and a revelation of the time
when Jesus will return at last.
It??™s confirmation of His existence and undying love,
and minute glimpses into Heaven above.
It??™s a record of creation and the Prophets of old,
and word by word essays of stories Jesus told.
It??™s a hand book in emergencies pointing to our faith, and
an explanation of how God teaches us to wait.
It??™s a book of enlightenment teaching what??™s best, there??™s
even instruction of when and how to rest.
There??™s a book of wisdom written within,
and Gospels where we read how Jesus conquered sin.
There??™s writing on diet, dress, and self control,
it mentions our destiny and it being our goal.
It was written by God??™s loving instruction,
and no man who tried could ever curb its production.
Some who open it say it can??™t be understood,
but they haven??™t received the interpreter as they should.
All who seek with all their heart shall find,
the Holy Spirit comes in and opens up their mind.
The Bible isn??™t our salvation it a letter from above,
telling of our Savior and His undying love!

Thank you Barbara
Isaiah
55:11
So shall my
word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not
return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I
please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Jeremiah
23:28
The prophet
that hath a dream, let him tell a dream; and he that hath my
word, let him speak my word faithfully. What is the chaff to
the wheat? saith the LORD.
Colossians
3:16
Let the word
of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and
admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual
songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Father, How wonderful it is, to come into your presence,
with thankfulness, and praise in our hearts, for who you
are, for your compassion, and mercy, endureth forever. We
hold close your truth, your Holy word, to our hearts, even
now, and I praise you, that this ministry is continuing, for
your glory. That you are bringing the lost to your throne,
and that we will all do our part, to bring truth, and light,
to those, we see, and know, who need truth, to set them
free.
For the sake of Christ, and his sacrifice, to be obedient,
to do your will, for the plan, of Salvation. Either, by
sending these messages, or by referring the lost, to
receive, a love letter from your throne, you will guide us,
by prayer, by fasting, by your word, and by the holy spirit.
Thank you Father, for all you do, may we even now seek your
word, for guidance, in all things, for inspiration, and
understanding, of the goodness, and the greatness of you our
Lord.
In Jesus name, Amen
