(Today's devotion is brought to you by Paul and Barney)
Scripture Reference: John 1:1-14
You have been a Christian for a while now, you have always wanted to move into greater spiritual heights. But your Christian life is like a see-saw, up and down. Sometimes you hear God, sometimes you feel that God is far away…
You do not have to seek for the formula anymore! You have the most powerful answer to your issues in life in your hands – The Bible! I am sure you know that The Bible is the word of God, but do you know that The Bible is really your means to get close to God?
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:1 (NKJV)
The Word of God is God Himself! (v1…and the Word was God!). Every time you open the Bible, it is like seeing God appearing in your midst! Every time speak forth the Word of God, it is God who goes forth to accomplish that which was spoken!
I remember watching the movie, The Mummy. In the movie, when the people read out the words from an ancient book, the power in the words will bring the dead back to life. I always think that these people have great faith! There is not a trace of doubt when they read out the words. We Christians have the real power book in our hands!
Christians, we hold the key to unlock the mysteries of God in our hands – The Bible. Sometimes we do not treat the Bible as the most important book to be read, we do not take reading the Bible as a great priority in our life.

Do you want to know the blueprint of success? I urge you brothers and sisters, pick up the Bible and start reading today. Have a regular Bible reading plan, read the Bible everyday no matter you feel like it or not. The word will feed your spiritual man.
Most importantly, the word is God Himself. A way to touch God everyday is to read the word everyday! Every time you open the Bible, you are nearer to God than ever, He is speaking to you!
“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us…” John 1:14 (NKJV)
Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus, thank You that You ARE the powerful Word! Thank You for giving me this powerful weapon. I repent for not spending regular time feeding on Your Word, instead I seek worldly wisdom to solve my problems. Father help me to start a habit of feeding on Your Word everyday, starting from Today! Amen!
