WHAT YOU WILL FIND AS YOU READ THE SCRIPTURES – PART 2

Scripture:  1 Peter 2:2 “As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby.”

   As we read the scriptures we find sheep that have gone astray. Isaiah 53:6 says, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.”  Romans 3:23 says, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”  
    As we read on in the scriptures, we find a Shepherd who gives His life for the sheep.  In Isaiah 53:6 again, it says “and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.” Jesus bore all our sins in His body on the cross.    
    We see mentioned also the snares of the devil.  In Second Timothy 2:26 it says, “And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.” The Word of God shows us the truth so that we will not be deceived!
    As we read the scriptures, we also find the steadfastness of the faithful.  In 1 Corinthians 15:58 it says, “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.”  
    We read also about the stormy trials that we face and the sufficient grace that He bestows.  We all go through storms along the way. But for every storm that we have to go through, He always provides sufficient grace. “Oh the weary days, when those troubles caused us fear.  But in every minute, every second, our Lord was so near.  He was in control.  He knew just what to do.  With His great grace and mercy, He safely brought us through!    
     Have you put faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior?  He will provide you the grace if you will call on Him today!
