Many people avoid reading the Bible because they believe it is merely a book of laws designed to prevent them from having fun.
Although many have used the Bible incorrectly to undermine others, its actual aim is to uplift them.
A successful sermon, according to tradition, should "skin 'em alive" and leave the audience feeling guilty.
However, God loves you and is on your side. As a result, He gave you His Word to help you, to uplift you, to give you things, not to take anything good from you.
Yes, there are Bible verses that will make you feel discouraged. For some people who need to be disciplined and called to repentance, they are necessary at specific times. However, there are encouraging words for people who love God and are His children that will help you grow.
Consume the Word of God's grace, which speaks of His favor, love, and goodness. You will grow as a result.
Check to discover whether what you are feeding on actually agrees with the Bible if it is not strengthening your faith.
Don't focus solely on a verse from the Bible that wasn't intended for you. We can learn from the Bible in its entirety. However, you ought to pay close attention to what God is saying to you as His child and a part of the Body of Christ.
God is never merely looking to tear you down or cause you harm. His goal is to improve you, to uplift you, and to inspire you.
SAY THIS: The New Testament's authentic message will strengthen me. The news is good.
