(Rom 15:4 KJV) For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
God patiently revealed Himself and His ways to us over a period of a few thousand years. God revealed Himself in His commandments and in His interaction with people during that time. He finally revealed Himself fully in the coming of Jesus Christ as a human. All these things have been recorded and preserved by God for our help, strength and instruction. It is by patient endurance and the encouragement of the scriptures that we have hope and faith. We live in a time when we need our hope and faith encouraged. Look to God’s Word for help and hope. God’s Word is readily available to us, yet many neglect this vital source of help and life. Look to God’s Word. Let’s find the comfort, encouragement, instruction and hope that we need.
