The Power of The Bible


The Bible has the power to do anything in Life.

1. Create: The Bible states that God spoke, and the world came into existence. In Genesis 1, God's word is portrayed as having the power to create and bring life into being.

2. Authority: The Bible is seen as the ultimate authority for believers. It is described as "God-breathed" and inspired by the Holy Spirit (2 Timothy 3:16). It provides guidance, wisdom, and instructions for living a righteous life.

3. Transform: Hebrews 4:12 states that the Word of God is living and active, able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart. It can convict, correct, and bring about repentance, leading to spiritual growth and change.

4. Save: Romans 1:16 states that the Gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes. The Bible presents the message of Jesus' life, death, and resurrection as the means of eternal life.

5. Guide: Psalm 119:105 says, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." It provides wisdom and principles that help believers make decisions and navigate through life.

6. Spiritual Warfare: Ephesians 6:17 mentions the "sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." It is depicted as a defensive and offensive weapon against spiritual forces.

7. Helps in Endurance: Romans 15:4 states, "For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope."

8. Heal: The Bible records instances of Jesus and his disciples healing the sick and casting out demons through the power of God's Word (Matthew 8:16, Mark 16:17-18).

9. Convict and Convert: The Bible describes the power of God's Word to convict individuals of their sins and lead them to repentance and conversion (Acts 2:37, Hebrews 4:12).

10. Bring Hope and Encouragement: The Bible offers hope and encouragement to believers by proclaiming God's promises and reminding them of His faithfulness (Romans 15:4, Psalm 119:114).

11. Provide Wisdom and Understanding: The Bible is considered a source of divine wisdom and understanding, equipping believers with insights for making wise decisions and living according to God's will (Psalm 119:130, Proverbs 2:6).

12. Illuminate Spiritual Truths: The Bible is believed to reveal spiritual truths and mysteries, helping believers understand God's nature, plan, and purposes (1 Corinthians 2:10-12).

All the questions about life are all answered in the Bible.

Part I:Son..Daddy Loves You.

Son, When I was a young boy,before teenage,there were things I missed doing and enjoying,but as a statement goes,what you don't know doesn't hurt you.I  didn't know what I missed until I got a chance to be a little bit older  and realized,"That must have been a fun and adventurous activity". Well,I enjoyed the freedom of doing anything I wanted to do as long as I wasn't going to bring trouble to the parents.I liked this.Unfortunately there wasn't exposure to do much,as I can see now and long for,if I had a chance.I blame no one for this,but I have resolved to give the best to you. It's a pity to see how many rushed into starting families and they were not able to sustain them. Their end up causing pains to innocent children via divorce,separations and all manner of violence. I want the best environment for you,one that will expose you and help you explore all you potential As I wrote down this thoughts,I hadn't met your mum,I was still ...

Goodbye Employment

There comes a time when you have to make a choice between the ideal reality and the real reality. Every day we make  choices that will make us who we will be tomorrow.In fact our today is as a result of our yesterday choices and it goes without saying that our tomorrow will be as a result of today's choices. Some times back in my 3rd year of study in Campus my room mate asked me why I'm studying.Without much thinking I told him,'I'm studying to make myself unemployable'.I hadn't understood what's all the fuss over with employment but I can now guess a few things being faced with such a situation of whether to look for a job or not.Employment is secure because at the end of the month one is assured of a salary to foot off the bills.Job gives one a higher social status.It also offers a career growth. Having gone through the curriculum,one is faced with several alternatives;Get into trying their hand in business by applying the skills they learnt,Get a j...

Gentlemen Need this...Ladies Require too.

Sometimes back the concept of tall,dark,rough and handsome was very popular among ladies,whereas the figure eight was the,'wa-wa-wa' among men.It was a narrow perspective towards hooking up with ones partner but times have changed.The celebrities were hailed and everyone wished they were their fiance',but we all know how their  lives are behind the scenes and we dread it.Men were the providers of the house,but we live in a world where your woman could be earning more than you and retrenchment is a common scenario.Emphasis on equality places us almost on the same level. The enormous question is where has the focus shifted too? Young informed people are no longer viewing life from a 1D perspective but rather,in fact,they are only limited by 3D,they could dissect their partners to-be even further.When we realize that life has more than what we can see and feel,we get critical and approach it from a  wider angle.The earlier we realize this the better. So what are we sup...
