Through the Bible - Exodus 37-38
Good morning,
Growing up in the Chicago area I was familiar with Moody Bible Institute, and remember going into the city on some Sunday evenings when I was a kid to the "Sunday Night Sing". I have friends that have children that are currently attending Moody.
Every year in February Moody celebrates "Founders Week", inviting speakers in to proclaim the Word of God from the pulpit and over the airwaves.
For today's verse we go to the book of Hebrews for one of my favorite verses:
Heb 4:12 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. NKJV
I saw a commercial the other day for a piece of exercise equipment and what it can do for you in 20 minutes a day. What befefit would you receive if it was used once a week, a month, or less?
What kind of impact does the Bible have on you when you read it "20 minutes" a day?
It will encourage you, strengthen you, challenge you, tearch you, convict you, humble you, reveal who you really are, and give you hope. Can you ad any other benefits?
What impact will it have on you if you read it once a week, a month, or less?
Read through the lyrics to the "Word is Alive" below. Let God's Word resonate in your life today.
The Word is Alive - Casting Crowns
Looking out from His throne, the Father of light and of men
Chose to make Himself known and show us the way back to Him
Speaking wisdom and truth into the hearts of peasants and kings
He began to unveil the Word that would change the course of all things
With eyes wide open, all would see
The Word is alive
And it cuts like a sword through the darkness
With a message of life to the hopeless and afraid
Breathing life into all who believe
The Word is alive
And the world and its glories will fade
But His truth, it will not pass away
It remains yesterday and forever the same
The Word is alive
Simple strokes on a page
Eternity's secrets revealed, carried on from age to age
It speaks Truth to us even still
And as the rain falls from Heaven, feeds the earth before it returns
Lord, let Your Word fall on us and bring forth the fruit You deserve
With eyes wide open, let us see
The Word is alive
His Word is alive

Eph 1:7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace NIV
Heb 4:11-14
The Word Discovers Our Condition
11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience. 12 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. 13 And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.
NKJV
