Opening Scriptures before the Message

Isaiah 55:11 Week 75 NIV Today's Light 2 Year so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 Week 96 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness,

so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

2 Peter 1:19-21 Week 100 And we have the word of the prophets made more certain, and ypu will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

Above all, you must understand that no prophesy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation.

For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by Holy Spirit.

How to hear and understand the Gospel

The LORD Speaks

Job 38:1-3 Week 44 Then the LORD answered Job out of the storm. He said:

"Who is this that darkens my counsel with words without knowledge?

Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.

Job 40:6-7 Week 44 Then the LORD spoke to Job out of the storm:

"Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.

Job 42:4-7 Week 44 "You said, 'Listen now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you shall answer me,'

My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you.

Therefore I despise myself and repent in dust and ashes."

Epilogue

After the LORD had said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "I am angry with you and your two friends, because you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.

Romans 10:14-17 Week 87 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"

But not all the Israelites accepted the good news. For Isaiah says, "Lord, who has believed our message?"

Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ.

Acts 26:17-18 Week 86 I will rescue you from your own people and from the Gentiles. I am sending you to them

to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'

Romans 15:4-7 Week 87 For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you a spirit of unity among yourselves as you follow Chris Jesus,

so that with one heart and mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.
