One effective way to understand the importance of God’s Word is by knowing what it is. God’s Word is found in the Bible. It’s our manual and blueprint as believers. Through the Bible, we can know more about God’s character, His teachings, and His will.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
John 1:1
“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”
John 1:14
The Word of God was there from the beginning. Through the Word, God created the world.
The Bible is not just a book that you read and forget about. There is transforming power in the Word of God.
“For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.”
Hebrews 4:12
The power of God’s Word lies in the fact that it comes alive. It’s active and effective. No other book in the world has this kind of power.
