I believe that God's Word, the Bible, is innerant, and that it is the most important piece of equipment in the life of a child of God. Outside of the Bible, there is no knowledge of God, therefore, it is important for us to read God's Word daily, for this is how we get to know Him.
While nature itself points to the fact that there is a God, we only get to know Him on a personal basis, by reading His Word. It is the Bible that lets us know that we can communicate with God through prayer, and our spirit can grow and flourish only by feeding from the Word of God, which is our Daily Bread.
We get to know of our need for salvation through Jesus Christ, only by the Word of God. In fact, all that we need as people of God is found in the Word of God. Jesus is the Word of God made flesh (The living Bible, or God becoming man), and the Bible is the source of all we need to know concerning Him.
For these, and so many other reasons, it is imperative for us to read our Bible every day, and as we seek to evangalize, and disciple, let us keep in mind always, the imortance of the Word of God. It is fresh to us each day, and there is something new to be gotten as we read daily. Let us always be mindful of the importance of Bible reading, and studying in our daily lives, and as we do the work God has entrusted in our hands.
