TOPIC: The Comfort Of The Scriptures (Rhapsody of Realities 14 October 2025)
For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope (Romans 15:4).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
God cared so much about us that He gave us the Holy Scriptures as a personal document so that through the comfort of the Scriptures, we might have hope.
That’s why I love to study the Bible again and again. As I study, I find direction. I’m filled with hope. I look at the future with great expectation. No matter what’s happening in the world, I’m focused on the Word. I set my face like a flint because I have hope through the comfort of the Scriptures.
The Bible has become for me a living thing, the living voice of Christ. For example, whenever I say, “Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world,” I’m not just quoting a verse. I’m responding to a living voice that God gave me for my journey. He knows we don’t see Him physically every day. He knows the pressures we deal with and the times we wish He would visibly show up. But He gave us something even more dependable, His Word.
He wants you to rely on His Word, for it never fails. Isaiah 55:11 says, “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth; it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.” Then in Matthew 24:35, the Lord Jesus said, “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.”
This shows that God’s Word is the most dependable foundation. Not one word from Him has ever failed or could ever fail as Joshua 21:45 affirms, “Not one word of all the good promises which the Lord had made unto the house of Israel failed; all came to pass.”
Furthermore, the Scriptures empower you to deal wisely in the affairs of life (Joshua 1:8 AMPC). That’s why we emphasize meditating on the Word. Everything you’d ever be in your life is wrapped up in the Word. So, stay on the Word. Live by the Word.
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for the blessing of the Scriptures, your living Word that guides, inspires and strengthens me. Through the comfort of the Scriptures, I have hope. I walk in wisdom, faith and bold expectation of a glorious future. Your Word is my daily light, and I live by its truth, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
