It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things
from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus, That
thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been
instructed (Luke 1:3-4).
God’s Word is truth, the only truth. There’re no other truths outside the
Bible. God gave us the Scriptures to study as our foundation and truth to
believe and live by. Therefore, the Word is all we should accept, and most
surely believe. Luke 1:1 says, “Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set
forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed
among us .”
You won’t be able to live the Christian life to the fullest until you’re
thoroughly convinced that there’re no alternatives to God’s Word. You must be
decisively convinced that the Word is true, irrespective of how you feel or the
circumstances around you. This is important, because you can’t make any
meaningful impact with the Gospel, until you’re definite about what you
believe.
The Apostles didn’t give room in the early church for people to be tossed
here and there; they wanted everyone to be certain, to be clear, about the
truth, to believe completely, and be passionate about the Gospel. Don’t have
questions in your mind against the truth; don’t waver because of trials and
persecutions.
Whenever you study the Word, or hear the Word preached and taught, open
your heart to receive it. Let it get a hold of your spirit, and be steadfast
and unmovable, fruitful and productive in every good work. Hallelujah!
PRAYER: Dear Father, your Word is my life, and the foundation of my
success, joy, prosperity, and victories. I stand fast in the faith, knowing the
certainty of those things wherein I’ve been instructed. I accept, and live by
your Word, and as a result, your glory is manifested in all that I do! Thank
you for strengthening my faith in the Gospel, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY: Colossians 1:23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and
settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have
heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof
I Paul am made a minister;
John 17:17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
