September 23

We read the following scriptures together:
2 Tim 3:16-4:6
Ps 19:7-11
Ps 119: 105, 9-11
I Pet 1:22-25
Matt 4:4
Jn 8:31-32

Here's what we discussed:
-God's word is all we need to know Him, worship Him, and walk with Him.
-The Bible is necessary to know God, be saved, and walk with God.
-We can easily miss the mark on God's character, salvation, etc. if we don't stay grounded in the Bible.
-It would be horrific if we all just depended on our own personal revelation of God.  We would have no idea what God is really like.
-Prov 29:25 - It is better to trust in the Lord than to fear man.
-Prov 3:5-6 - Trust in the Lord with all your heart...
-Phil 4:4-8 - Rejoice in the Lord always...do not be anxious for anything...pray and fix your minds on what is true.  We can trust Him through all of life's seasons.
-God tells us that His grace is sufficient for us.
-Hebrews says that He will never leave us nor forsake us.  That's true no matter what we feel like.
-When we can't see answers we need to trust God's leading and sovereignty.
-As we mature in God we need Him more and more, not less.
-Without His word we would be groping and stumbling around in the dark.
