God's Word is Timeless!

I am reading through the old testiment backwards. I've tried several times from the beginning and lost it around Numbers. That is sad I know, but maybe this backwards thing will work. So far I really like it because I haven't done a whole lot of bible study on these books, are they called the Minor Prophets? Anyways, this morning during my quiet time I felt the Lord nudging my spirit to follow his leading in encouraging younger women to study the bible early on. It is so important and God speaks answers to our toughest questions when we keep seeking. God knows our struggles and He makes a way for us to get throughthem when we are obedient. He gives us His word to encourage us and keep us going. When we don't seek His word regularly we get tangled in our own mess of sin and pride. His word gives power for daily living. Thankyou Lord for the power and strength you give through your word. Let me not forget how important it is to fill up on your word each morning.

These verses gave me encouragement today:

On that day you will no longer need be ashamed for you will no longer be rebels against me.
I will remove all the proud and arrogant people from among you.
There will be no more haughtiness on my holy mountain.
Those who are left will be the lowly and humble, for it is they who trust in the name of the Lord.

God's word is so timeless! (I am the Lord , and I do not change....Malachi 3:6) I'm so glad that on that day I will no longer be a rebel! These verses remind me to not focus on my place in this world so much, but to focus on Him and how I can build others up. Pride so easily slips in and tries to take over but God values my humility, my dependence on Him. Lord, thankyou for your work in my life. Without you, I am so human, so weak. With you I am strong. (A final word: Be strong i nt he Lord and in his mighty power. Ephesians 6:10
