Dear Friend,

If you have received Jesus as your Savior and Lord, then God is your Father in heaven, and I am your sister in the family of God.

And so you are no longer called outcasts and wanderers but citizens with God’s people, members of God’s holy family, and residents of His household.
Ephesians 2:19 (VOICE)

We are friends, citizens, and family when we are born again into the family of God.  Even when the world around us blurs the lines of right and wrong, we have a place where we belong—God’s family. We have a standard of righteousness, life, blessing, and freedom. That standard is God’s Word. Every person who is born again into God’s family believes that God’s Word is truth.

There are 66 books in the Holy Bible. While God used many writers to pen these books, there is only one Author—the Holy Spirit. Every writer was inspired by God the Holy Spirit, so that from Genesis to Revelation God is the Author of the Bible.

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,
17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
2 Timothy 3:16,17 (NKJV)

No matter what battle, trial, or test is before you today, God’s Word will equip you to know the truth that will set you free. God’s Word belongs to you and will profit you whether you turn to the right or to the left, so that you are never lacking. With God’s Word in your hand, you are complete and ready for whatever is ahead of you this week.

Praise God for His mighty Word!
