What is bible?
The bible is the word of God given to his family; revealing his promises and his instruction to his family.
The bible is made up of two dimension which are....Gods promises and Gods instruction. Discovering and operating in these two dimension will determine you living the God kind of life.
The promises of God and Gods instruction ARE CONDITIONAL IN NATURE. In other words, its not automatic in nature....it calls for participation of you and God for any of his promises and instructions to come to reality
The bible is made of the letter and the spirit. The letters are English language or any language used to write or translate it and the spirit aspect of it is divine in nature...that's the Revelation behind the letters
Why do you need to read your bible?
You need to read your bible so you can gain faith. Faith is the gained from what's written in the Bible. The knowledge of bible is all about the intellectual awareness of what's written of in the bible. The knowledge of God is spiritual understanding of what's written in the bible.....in line with Gods expectation that's above the intellectual realm.
You study your bible to know, understand and walk in the lifestyle of God. Its meant to birth in you the knowledge of who God is, his culture, his family and his kingdom.
Your bible is meant to reveal Gods plan to you. Its meant to transform your thinking pattern towards Gods nature. Its meant to realign your desire, decisions, expectations and attitude to fit into Gods plan.
The bible is meant to expose you to the knowledge and understanding of Gods pattern of operation. Its meant to transform you from the sinful kingdom into Gods nature.
How to use the bible
You study it.
You meditate on it.
You confess it.
You believe the promises.
You obey it or practice its instruction.
You allow it to dictate your decisions, desire, thinking pattern and attitude.
The bible holds answers to any kind of questions in any phase of life. It carries solutions to any kind of problems in any phase of life. It is for the welfare of your spirit, soul and body.
THE WHOLE BIBLE IS DESIGNED BY GOD TO REVEAL YOU TO YOUR ORIGINAL SOURCE WHICH IS HIMSELF.
Every thing at the creation of the world and before the fall of Adam and Eve was set to show Gods blueprint for mankind and how mankind was design to function.
Every thing after the fall of Adam and Eve through out the old testament is set to point you to Jesus....the restorer and saviour of the damage the fall of Adam and Eve created.
Every thing from the birth of Jesus till death and resurrection revealed...the rediscovery of the kingdom of God, its culture, pattern for preparation, principle for living, the price paid for mans sin, and the adoption of the falling mankind back to where they fell from after the garden of Eden
Another thing I must stretch is.....no promise of God or instruction of God is automatic in nature.......THERE IS PROCESS IN EVERY OF GODS PROMISES OR INSTRUCTION.
The focus of Salvation is growth into the image and nature of Christ. This is what the Holy Spirit uses Gods word to achieve in your life.
The word of God is Jesus and the HOLY SPIRIT CAN NOT OPERATE ON HIS OWN. All the operations of the Holy Spirit is limited to the principles of Gods Word in your bible.
Any prophecy or vision that disagrees with the bible is a display of familiar spirit or demons at word. The bible is every thing you will need and it meets every individual according to the uniqueness of their situation, pains, problem, struggle...etc
How to study your bible
You can study your Bible base on the subject that appeal your interest.... E.g. Faith, Salvation, Born Again. You can also study your bible base on the question in your heart you are searching for scriptural instruction on what to do. The knowledge of the bible is not for showing off, manipulating people, dominating people...etc.
The knowledge of the word of God is for deliverance from ignorance, for growth into the maturity in Christ, for strengthening the weak, for rebuking, for encouraging, and for building people up in faith.
The bible is the word of God that will teach you HOW TO SERVE!!!
