“The sower sows the word” (Mark 4:14).

The Lord Jesus came as a Sower to sow the seed of the Word of God into humankind. Every believer in Christ is God’s cultivated land. The planting ground for God’s Word on earth is the human heart (see 1 Corinthians 3:9).

Scripture is that true planting of God, which was planted by God the Father, as it is written: “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16).

It was the Father who planted the Scripture, which is Jesus Christ, the only true planting of God that lives and abides forever. That’s why Jesus says, “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser” (John 15:1).

God promised long ago to plant the Spirit of Scripture in our hearts, saying, “I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them” (Ezekiel 36:27).

The Holy Spirit further confirmed the promise, saying, “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them” (Hebrews 10:16).

God’s promise was fulfilled on Pentecost day in Jerusalem. On that day God planted the Spirit of Scripture in the hearts of the disciples of Jesus, those who believed His Word and waited for the promise as He commanded them (see Acts 2:1-4).

After the Spirit of Scripture came upon the disciples they received power to understand that the Scripture is the very Christ the Word of God, and they could testify of Him, as Jesus said to them (see Acts 1:8).

God requires a change of heart that we should turn from flesh to the Scripture. The promise is for everyone, as the disciples were “Testifying to Jews, and also to Greeks, repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ” (Acts 20:21).

Repentance toward God and faith in the Scripture alone is the requirement. Anyone can receive the Spirit of Scripture as He promised, “He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water” (John 7:38).

God wants to plant the knowledge of His Word in our mind, that the Scripture is Jesus Christ whom God sent. Jesus says, “And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent” (John 17:3).

Faith in the Scripture alone is the salvation. Paul wrote, “In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise” (Ephesians 1:13).

The only way anyone can become a child of God is to believe that Christ is the Word of God, and then God confirms our faith in His Word by giving us the Holy Spirit of Scripture to dwell in our hearts forever (see John 14:15-16).

Scripture is the true planting of God, which God wants to plant in our hearts. All other planting are evil imaginations conjured up by the devil. Jesus says, “Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted” (Matthew 15:13).

PRAYER:
Dear heavenly Father, help me to continue in your Word and to know the truth of the Scripture, so that the truth will make me free, in Jesus name. Amen.

“I am the Lord, that is My name; and My glory I will not give to another, nor My praise to carved images” (Isaiah 42:8).

The glory of God is the manifestation of God, whom He is as God. The Word is God’s true identity and glory, as it is written: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1).

Scripture is that Word, which is the brightness and express image of God’s glory. The Scripture is the true expression of God Himself (see Hebrews 1:3). The Word is the glory and image of the invisible God (see Colossians 1:15).

The truth, directly from the Bible, is that the Word is the very God who created all things in the beginning. Scripture is before all things, and “All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made” (John 1:3).

God created all things by Scripture, He spoke before everything else began. Peter wrote, “For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water” (2 Peter 3:5).

God’s Word is the power that holds the universe together. Peter further writes, “But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men” (2 Peter 3:7).

Scripture is the true and the only manifestation of God.  The Word is the voice and shape of God Himself. Christ is the glory of God and the only begotten Word of the Father (see John 1:14). And God will not give His glory to another.

Everyone must receive the Scripture to be members of God’s family and become heirs of God’s glory: “As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12).

The Word is Jesus Christ and the glory of the only true God. All other gods are imposters conjured up by the devil. God gave His glory to the Scripture, “that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:11).

Jesus made this clear, saying, “All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him” (Matthew 11:27).

But Jesus has revealed that He is holding in reserve a great inheritance to give: “And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work” (Revelation 22:12). That great reward is Christ the Word of God Himself.

Christ, the Word of God, is heir of all things including God’s glory. It is after we believe the Scripture, and are born again into God’s family through His Word, before we become joint heirs with Christ through the Scripture (see Romans 8:17).

The only way anyone can become heir of God is through the Holy Scripture. Paul says, “So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified” (Acts 20:32).

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, thank you for the love you bestowed on us that we should become heirs of God through your Word, in Jesus name. Amen.

“When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, “I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless” (Genesis 17:1).

The Lord appeared to Abraham and introduced Himself as the Almighty God. This title speaks of the Lord’s supreme power. God’s Word has all might and power. The authority of the Word of God is superior to all other powers.

Scripture cannot be stopped by any power in the universe. Every Word of God must be fulfilled, as it is written: “Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled” (Matthew 5:18).

God’s Word can do anything He wants; whenever He wants. When God speaks it must be done (see Psalm 33:9). Ultimately the only thing that determines what God will do and what He won’t is His spoken Word.

Scripture is that spoken Word of God which came to Abraham: “And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, in you all the nations shall be blessed”(Galatians 3:8).

When we see the Word of God as the Almighty, we would realize that Christ the Word is the power of God, and by Him all things are possible. God created all things through His Word both in heaven and on earth (see Colossians 1:16).

The knowledge of the Word of God as the Almighty establishes the authority of Scripture in our hearts. Which is why Jesus says, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth” (Matthew 28:18).

God’s desire is to have personal relationship with mankind through His Word. That was the reason Jesus Christ, the Word of God, became a human to die and rise again so that we would know Him, the only true Almighty Word of God (see John 17:3).

The fact that the Lord Jesus humbled Himself and became a human makes the Word of God all the more remarkable. Jesus says, “Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again” (John 10:17).

Paul wrote, “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up in glory” (1 Timothy 3:16).

Scripture is the Word of God that manifested Himself as a human: “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth” (John 1:14).

The Word that descended and became a human was the same Scripture that ascended into the glory of the Almighty. “He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things” (Ephesians 4:10).

God has highly elevated His Word and given the Scripture all authority: “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth” (Philippians 2:10).

The Word of God is the Almighty Jesus Christ. That’s why Jesus says, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, says the Lord, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty” (Revelation 1:8).

PRAYER:
Dear Father, thank you for the revelation of your Word as the Lord God Almighty, in Jesus name. Amen.

“On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink” (John 7:37).

Jesus was speaking of the Spirit of Scripture that would be given to anyone who believes in the Scripture.  The Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus the Word of God had not yet returned to His glory in heaven (see John 7:39).

God promised long ago to pour His Spirit upon us: “That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions” (Joel 2:28).

The promise was fulfilled on Pentecost day in Jerusalem, after Jesus the Word of God was raised from the dead and ascended into the place of honour at God’s right hand in heaven (see Revelation 5:1).

Peter confirmed it in his sermon, saying: “Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear” (Acts 2:33).

Today, anyone can receive the Holy Spirit of Scripture: “For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call” (Acts 2:39).

The only way to receive the Holy Spirit of the Word is through the Bible, when we open our hearts to the Scripture. God gives the Holy Spirit to anyone who believes His Word, there is no difference at all (see Acts 15:8-9).

Whoever believes in the Scripture shall be filled with the Spirit of the Bible. It is the Holy Spirit of Scripture that teaches the truth of the Bible, and make people know that the Scripture is the true Word of God (see John 14:26).

Scripture is that drink of God, which is living water. Anyone who believes in the Scripture shall be filled with the living Word. Jesus says, “He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water” (John 7:38).

The Word of God is the spiritual blood of the New Testament, which Jesus says everyone should drink: “For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins” (Matthew 26:28).

Scripture is the blood and life of the New Testament, which is that precious blood of Christ, “The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29). The Word of God is the cleansing blood of Christ.

That’s why Jesus says, “You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you” (John 15:3). Anyone who receives the Scripture as the true Son of God is washed by the Word (see Ephesians 5:25-26).

God wants us to be filled with the Spirit of Scripture and controlled by Him. Paul wrote, “And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit” (Ephesians 5:18).

PRAYER:
Dear Father, fill me with the Spirit of Scripture so that out of my heart will flow the living Word of God, in Jesus name. Amen.

“And it shall be that every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be utterly destroyed from among the people” (Acts 3:23).

Moses repeated God’s words to the Israelites, saying: “I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him” (Deuteronomy 18:18).

God gave the Israelites the Scripture, like Moses, so that through the Holy Writing He would be speaking to the people continually. They would be hearing the words of God all the days of their lives.

It is interesting to note that after Moses had died God said to Joshua, “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it” (Joshua 1:8).

Scripture was that Prophet God sent. Which was why God says, “Search from the book of the Lord, and read: not one of these shall fail; not one shall lack her mate. For My mouth has commanded it, and His Spirit has gathered them” (Isaiah 34:16).

The Father gave the Scripture as the everlasting Prophet that will continually speak the words of God to mankind: “For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure” (John 3:34).

The Word of God is the Christ, which is that Prophet whom God sent, and He alone speaks God’s words that abide forever. Jesus says, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away” (Matthew 24:35).

Scripture is the Word of God indeed. The voice of God is in the Holy Bible, because all Scripture are the very words of God in print, as it is written: “All Scripture is given by inspiration of God” (2 Timothy 3:16).

The Word of God was the voice of the Prophet Adam disobeyed in the Garden of Eden and he died. The Holy Scripture is that greater Prophet than Jonah, which is among mankind, whom God says we should obey His voice.

That’s why Jesus says, “The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here” (Luke 11:32).

Scripture was the Christ the children of Israel tempted in the wilderness, and they were destroyed: “Nor let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed by serpents” (1 Corinthians 10:9).

The Holy Spirit was speaking in the wilderness through the Scripture, but the people did not listen to the voice of His words. They hardened their hearts through unbelief and eventually they perished (see Hebrews 3:7-12).

Today, the Scripture is that voice of the Prophet that is speaking, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of trial in the wilderness” (Hebrews 3:7-8).

PRAYER:
Dear Father, give me a new heart and a new spirit so that I would obey the voice of the Scripture, in Jesus name. Amen.

“Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus” (Hebrews 3:1).

Jesus Christ is called the High Priest because He is the Mediator of the New Testament: “To Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel” (Hebrews 12:24).

In the Old Testament, a priest mediated between the people and God. Aaron and his descendants were appointed high priests. “And no man takes this honour to himself, but he who is called by God, just as Aaron was” (Hebrews 5:4).

But in the New Testament Jesus Christ, like the high priest of old times, stands in the gap between the people and God, as it is written: “For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus” (1 Timothy 2:5).

God spoke of the Word of God as our High Priest long ago through David, saying, “The Lord has sworn and will not relent, “You are a priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek” (Psalm 110:4).

The Word of God is the everlasting High Priest, and His priesthood is based on Melchizedek’s priesthood and authority: “Having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually” (Hebrews 7:3).

Whereas the former human high priest were many in number as they were prevented by death from continuing, but the Word of God is an unchangeable High Priest  because the Word abides forever (see Matthew 24:35).

Scripture is far superior to any human priest because the Word of God can save anyone who comes to God through Him, since the Scripture is always living and interceding for them (see Hebrews 7:25).

Today, we no longer need to go through human priests. No human priest can save anyone. The Word of God has removed the need to go through earthly priests. God is accessible to all who believes in His Word, there is no difference at all (see Acts 15:9).

The most important thing for us to understand is that because the Word of God is our High Priest, in this New Testament, anyone who believes in the Scripture can come to God with confidence (see Hebrew 10:19).

Everyone is free to approach God through the Word. Christ the Word of God has removed the limitation through the one sacrifice of Himself. “But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God” (Hebrews 10:12).

God, through the Scripture, has reinstituted relationship with mankind. Anyone sanctified through the Word have their conscience purged from dead works: “For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified” (Hebrews 10:14).

The Holy Bible is the only way to God, the Scripture is the truth of God, and the Word of God is the life of God. That’s why Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6).

PRAYER:
Dear Father, open my mind to see your Word as our High Priest, who is holy and able to save us, in Jesus name. Amen.

“Behold, a king will reign in righteousness, and princes will rule with justice” (Isaiah 32:1).

The Word of God is the righteous Christ, and the rule of Christ is the reign of righteousness. Jesus Christ is the one that is truly righteous before God, which is that Word in the right hand of the Father (see Revelation 5:1).

Christ the King is the Word of God, and He’s the King of kings, and Lord of lords. The Word of God is the King that will rule and reign in righteousness forever (see Revelation 19:13-16).

The government of the Scripture shall bring true justice and peace to all the nations of the world. God appointed the Bible as King over the kingdom of God, and the reign of Scripture shall be superior to any human government.

God’s master plan is to rule the whole world through His Word. At the glorious revelation of Jesus Christ all the kingdoms of this world shall become the kingdoms of the Holy Scripture (see Revelation 11:15).

Everyone who receives the Scripture, to them God shall give power to rule and reign as princes of God on the earth. Whoever receives the Word of God has received Christ the King (see John 1:12).

It is Scripture that is knocking at the door of our heart, saying, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me” (Revelation 3:20).

The Word of God is calling you. He wants to enter your heart and give you power. If anyone obeys the Scripture, the Holy Spirit of the Bible shall enter their heart and give them power to reign through the Word.

God gives power to people who put their trust in His Word, and He shall make them kings and priests, and they shall rule and reign through the Word of God on the earth (see Revelation 5:10).

That’s why John wrote, “And has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen” (Revelation 1:6).

Through faith in the Holy Scripture we become chosen people of God, royal priests, an holy nation, a peculiar people; therefore God empowers His people to teach others the Word of God (see 1 Peter 2:9).

Jesus says, “Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 5:19).

The Bible is God’s commandments and the Word of God. Scripture says, “He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day” (John 12:48).

The Word of God is the Great King, which is Jesus Christ the Lord. The psalmist wrote, “For the Lord is the great God, and the great King above all gods” (Psalm 95:3).

Scripture shall become the Great King over the whole world, as it is written: “And the Lord shall be King over all the earth. In that day it shall be—The Lord is one, and His name one” (Zechariah 14:9). “And His name is called “The Word of God” (Revelation 19:13).

PRAYER:
Dear Father, thank you for teaching us your Word, so that we would know you the only true God and our Great King, in Jesus name. Amen.

“Sell what you have and give alms; provide yourselves money bags which do not grow old, a treasure in the heavens that does not fail, where no thief approaches nor moth destroys” (Luke 12:33).

Jesus likened God’s Kingdom to a hidden treasure. “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field” (Matthew 13:44).

That hidden treasure is the Word of God, which is everlasting treasure that came from heaven. Scripture says, “But the word of the Lord endures forever. Now this is the word which by the gospel was preached to you” (1 Peter 1:25).

The Word of God is the greatest treasure on earth, and will never be removed; no one can destroy them; no government can replace them. The psalmist says, “I rejoice at Your word as one who finds great treasure” (Psalm 119:162).

Scripture has tremendous value. We should treasure the Word of God far more than physical and material wealth. Many people are still learning the hard lesson that no amount of material possessions will provide lasting satisfaction.

All earthly treasures can be stolen or destroyed, and do not last forever. But the Word of God is “the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). Nothing is more enduring than the Word of God which abides forever.

When we build our lives on the solid foundation of God’s Word, the rain and wind of change may come, but we shall not fall because the Word does not change. The assurance of God’s Word means that the Scripture cannot fail (see John 10:35).

The Bible is the treasure book of divine promises that must be fulfilled. That’s why those who love the Scripture have perfect peace. Scripture says, “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You” (Isaiah 26:3).

One of those divine promises is that the Word of God has power to give eternal life. God has given the Scripture authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to as many people as receive the Word of God (see John 17:2).

Those who receive the Word of God have received a wonderful treasure that makes them children of God. John wrote, “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name” (John 1:12).

However, merely having a copy of the Bible is not enough. The Lord said to Joshua, “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it” (Joshua 1:8).

Many of us need to get back to the Word of God. We should make a commitment and allocate a set time to read and study our Bible every day. Doing so will help open our eyes to the great treasures of the Bible.

PRAYER:
Dear Father, thank you for teaching us the value of your Word, and making us know that Scripture is more valuable than material wealth, in Jesus name. Amen.

“But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His” (Romans 8:9).

Scripture says if the Spirit of Christ is not in our hearts we do not belong to Christ, that unless we have the Spirit and the understanding of the Word of God, we do not belong to God.

The only way we can become God’s children is through the Scripture. Everyone that has the Spirit of the Scripture, which is the Spirit of God, belongs to God. “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God” (Romans 8:14).

God’s plan is to make us His sons and daughters through the Spirit of Christ His Son. Paul wrote, “And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, “Abba, Father!” (Galatians 4:6).

The Spirit of Christ was God’s promise. God spoke about this promise long ago, that He would give us a new heart, and put the Spirit of the Scripture in us,  so that we would obey His Word (see Ezekiel 36:26-27).

When we believe the Word is the Son of God, then God sends the Spirit of the Scripture into our hearts as the confirmation of our faith in His Word. Paul wrote, “In whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise” (Ephesians 1:13).

The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of the Scripture (see 2 Peter 1:20-21). If anyone receives the Scripture as the Christ, then the Holy Spirit would be pleased, and will come to dwell in that person’s heart permanently (see John 14:23).

God gives the one Holy Spirit of the Bible to everyone who believes His Word. The Holy Spirit is God’s gift to people who believe the Scripture, and God does this to all who believes in His Word, there is no difference at all (see Acts 2:38-39).

The God of the Bible seek to enter us through His Word. When the Spirit of the Word of God enters our hearts, then God has entered us. The psalmist wrote, “The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple” (Psalm 119:130).

God wants us to receive the revelation of Scripture, and to know the truth of the Bible that the Word is the Christ. Like new born baby, we should desire the sincere milk of the Word to grow in the knowledge of the Scripture (see 1 Peter 2:2).

All prophets of God had the Spirit of the Word of God in them. The Spirit of Christ within the prophets told them to write down the Scripture, speaking about the sufferings of Christ and His great glory afterwards (see 1 Peter 1:10-11).

The Spirit of Scripture is that Spirit of Christ. Today anyone can receive the Spirit of Christ. Jesus says, if we become disciples of the Scripture, the Spirit of Scripture will come and dwell in us forever (see John 14:15-16).

PRAYER
Everlasting Father, thank you for giving us access through one Spirit of the Scripture into the family of God, in Jesus name. Amen.

“And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:18-19).

Jesus said to His disciples that He has supreme authority, therefore go and preach this gospel. Anyone who believes and is baptized shall be saved. And His disciples went everywhere preaching and baptizing in the one name of Jesus Christ (see Acts 2:38).

Isaiah prophesied that the Son of God is also the Everlasting Father (see Isaiah 9:6). Who is the Son of God? The Word that was made flesh is the Son of God, which is Jesus Christ (see John 1:14). Jesus says, “I and My Father are one” (John 10:30).

It was God of the Bible that came in the Man Christ Jesus to save all mankind, and He is the only true God. Paul wrote, “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh” (1 Timothy 3:16).

Jesus Himself said His Father’s name is Jesus, that He came in His Father’s name (see John 5:43). Jesus also said, the name of the Holy Spirit is Jesus: “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name” (John 14:26).

The Word is the Godhead: “For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily” (Colossians 2:9). No one has seen God at any time, the Word of God, which is Christ the Son of God has made God known to us (see John 1:18).

God is the author of all Scripture; therefore God gave His own name to His Word. Scripture has inherited the name of Jesus, because God was pleased to have everything of Himself in the Bible. That’s why Jesus says, “All things that the Father has are Mine” (John 16:15).

The Father has committed all things to His Word, and made the Bible the first begotten Son of God. Therefore God gave His Word the name of Jesus, which is the one name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus said to Phillip that the Father dwells in Him: “He who has seen Me has seen the Father” (John 14:9). In fact, Jesus taught His disciples to pray to the Father in His name, because Jesus is the name of the Father (see John 16:23-28).

Paul wrote, “Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). Jesus is the Lord our Saviour. “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved” (Acts 4:12).

When we pray in the name of Jesus we are praying to the God of the Bible. God has highly elevated the Scripture and given Him the highest name of God, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow to the one true God of the Bible (see Philippians 2:9-11).

PRAYER
Dear heavenly Father, thank you for revealing your name so that we would call on the true God of the Bible, in Jesus name. Amen.
