Psalm 119:105
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

King David relied on God for everything, and we see his trust for the Almighty repeated over and over in Psalms. The Lord never changes, and His guidance is just as valuable now as it was in David’s time. He is reliable and trustworthy, and if you let Him into your life, the Lord will guide you in life. One of the ways He does that today is through the Bible. If you take time to

read it and “write the scriptures on your heart,” the Word of God will be a lamp to your feet, and a light to your path. When you’re afraid, lost and confused, not only will the Lord be present, but He will have given you His word to help you find your way.

2 Timothy 3:16-17
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

If you’ve ever wished there was an instruction manual for life, you need look no further than the Bible. The Word is a God-inspired guide for jobs, relationships, finances, marriage, parenting, and so much more. If you let it, the Bible will teach, correct and equip you for life, so that you will be able to handle everything the Lord has planned for you. For a child of God, scripture is both a sword and shield; essential for conquering life, but useless if you haven’t trained. Make the study of God’s Word a priority, so that you may be thoroughly equipped.

Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

There is no book, no teaching, and no truth like what you can find in the Bible. It’s no accident that it’s the world’s most-read book; it is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword. It was written by man, but authored by God, and over the ages it has changed hearts, saved kingdoms, and been the foundation of the greatest countries on earth. If you haven’t made a habit of reading the Word, you’re missing out on one of the Father’s greatest gifts to man. It answers your questions, comforts you during hard times, and reveals page by page the character of God.

John 15:13
Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

This verse brings to mind dramatic scenes where a selfless hero sacrifices himself to save someone’s life. It’s the greatest act of love, but rarely do you see that kind of love and boldness demonstrated in today’s world. But even if you don’t jump in front of a bus to save someone, you can still “lay down your life” by putting others first. Giving up your time, energy and personal wants for the sake of someone else is a form of self-sacrifice. It’s that kind of love that’s hard to come by, but with God’s help and the example of Jesus, you can possess it.

Romans 13:10
Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

God gave His people ten commandments, but Jesus summed them up in only two. The first and foremost is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, and the second is to love your neighbor as yourself. When you treat others with love, commandments about lying, stealing, jealousy and strife all fall into place. The entire law is fulfilled when you love God and His children… each and every one of them.

1 John 4:19
We love because he first loved us.

Love itself comes from God; it’s a part of His nature as a good and perfect God to love His children with infinite passion. He was the first being ever to love, and He demonstrated the depths of His love by sacrificing His one and only Son to save us from the crimes we committed against Him. The reason God’s people show love to others isn’t because it’s natural, but because of the supernatural love that we’ve seen. Before you even knew God, He loved you first.
