WHY I LOVE THE BIBLE -PART 1

Scripture:   Psalm 119:97 “O how love I thy law!  It is my meditation all the day.”

     The Psalmist is proclaiming his love for the Word of God and how much it means to him. O how we too as believers need to fall in love and stay in love with the His precious Word!  I’d like to give you a few reasons why I love it so much.  
    First, I love the Bible, because the devil hates it so.  He has, from the beginning, launched an attack on God’s Holy Word.  In Genesis 3, his reply to Eve was, yea, hath God said.  He denies that it is the Word of God.  He tries every way he can to discredit the Scripture.   
    Another reason I love the Bible is because it tells me how to live.  The Bible says, “Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world.”    
     Then, I love the Bible because it teaches me about God’s will for my life.  In 1 Thess. 5:18 the Scriptures say, “In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”  He will show you His plan in His Word.  
    Then, I love the Bible because it shows me God’s love.  1 John 3:16 says “Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.”  The greatest love ever known to man is found in the pages of this precious Bible.    
    Then, I love the Bible because all of its promises are true.  2 Cor. 1:20 says “For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.” How much time do you spend searching and studying the Word of God?
    Tomorrow I will continue this devotion with some more reasons why I love the Bible. It surely is a good book to live by!
