The law and word of the Lord is perfect. There is nothing stated in the Bible that isn't honest truth. From it, we can glean knowledge. From it, we gain wisdom. By soaking ourselves in the word of the Almighty, our simple minds can learn to comprehend the greatness of the God we serve. But we must be careful. We must be careful to read the Bible with discernment and in its correct context. The curse of sin has caused our minds to be clouded by faulty judgment. All too often, when we read the Scriptures, we are tempted to read the words in the wrong way. We are tempted to read the Scriptures with our focus on what the Bible has to say to us personally. We judge the Scripture and try to interpret its meaning according to our own emotions and feelings. Let me tell you something right now! That is the WRONG way to read the Bible!!! We are not meant to read the Bible and distort the context into what we feel can be applied to our own situations in life. While, yes, we can use verses in application to our lives, we must let God direct us. We can't just pick a random verse and apply it without proper meaning, we must be sure that God, through the Holy Spirit is using that verse to use in our situations. We must let God do the directing in our lives. His plans for us are good and perfect and when we try to direct our own steps, you can bet that the only thing that will greet us at the end of the path is failure. Let God take direction and don't try to think that you can do everything on your own because you can't. You can't. #biblicaltruth #devotional #christianity #thegoodnessofgod #thelawofthelordisperfect https://www.instagram.com/p/CO3FLttlt8z/?igshid=133dagdckp1cy
