Digging Into God’s Word Part One
You need the right tool for the right job. Each tool serves a specific purpose and they all serve a purpose in your toolbox. In the same way, we each need certain tools to dig into God’s Word.

What if this past year was just a year where God was making sure your heart was ready? I’m not talking so much about God testing you but preparing you. Even if you think you utterly failed in how you responded to this past year maybe God had used a season of waiting, mourning and praying to push you to your limit to make you more durable for the road ahead.
We’re to rejoice over another day to breathe. We’re to give thanks to God because His steadfast love is enduring and will continue to be so forever. We’re to rejoice and be glad because God alone does great wonders.
I have been united with Jesus. I am free: I can find grace in time of need. I have not been given a spirit of fear but instead one of power, love and self-discipline.
Do you recognize when God speaks? If He were speaking to you right now would you have ears to hear what He was saying to you? We sit in Church, read our Bible and think we know what God’s voice sounds like but do we really know how to recognize when Jesus is speaking to us?
We are addicted to sight. We are addicted to needing to know. We are addicted to control. Some of you plan way in advance. Some of you do tons of research before you even think about buying something. You might get nervous before you travel. You worry that something might not go according to plan. I don’t think a single one of you wants to live a boring life.
“The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from the Bible. The Bible was not given for our information but for our transformation.”
