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!
