EXPLORE GOD'S WORD

 

By A. W. Tozer

 

Thy word have I hid in mine heart,

that I might not sin against thee.  Psalm  119:11

 

    What a strange paradox!  The atheistic free-thinker rants

and raves about the Bible being a "dangerous" book at the

very same time that the Word of God is speaking life to

my soul!

 

    Strange indeed that some humans have the idea that the

Word of God can only be approached with shivering

fears.  But that is true only of those who love their sin and

hate their Savior.

 

    The blessed truth is that if I hate my sin and love my

Savior, the Word of God is a wonderful revelation,

indeed, and a trustworthy guide.

 

    We need to be aware always that if we do not keep the

Word of God on our side, we will be miserable in our

souls continually. It is up to us.  What do we sincerely will

to do with God and His revealed Word?

 

    Years ago, the saintly George Mueller said he had read

the Bible hundreds of times, and then he added: "with

meditation!"

 

    Let us see to it that we read the Word.  More than that,

we should actually explore it!
