The Battle of Words

Part of the One Year Bible reading for today is Genesis 3.  A snake is found in God's perfect garden.  It seems like, in this world, even the best situations have a little something flawed.  There's always a snake somewhere.  The battle depicted in Genesis 3 is a battle over words.  Satan, in the form of the snake, challenged God's instruction to Adam and Eve.  Satan sought to replace God's Word with a substitute.  The same battle goes on today.  So, whose word will you believe?  There is always a battle over God's Word.  If we want God's best, we've got to believe what He says.  We find what He says in the Bible.  It is to this end that we commit to read the entire Bible this year.  This is our Manufacturer's Handbook.  All other words will lead astray.  You can depend on what God says!

  1. Started with my reading today, Jan 2. Took me a little over 15 minutes including my 21 Day Fast reading in Daniel. This is a great reading plan for our 21 Days of fasting & praying for OUTREACH & ONE MIND.
