  John [MKJV] 1:1-3 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him, and without Him not even one thing came into being that has come into being. 

  Ephesians 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them. 

  2Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is God-breathed, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfected, thoroughly furnished to every good work. 

  2Peter 1:16-21 For not having followed fables having been cunningly devised, but becoming eyewitnesses of the majesty of Jesus Christ, we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord. 

For He received honor and glory from God the Father, when was borne to Him a voice from the excellent glory, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." And we heard this voice being borne from Heaven, being with Him in the holy mountain. We also have a more sure Word of prophecy, to which you do well to take heed, as to a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the Daystar arises in your hearts, knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture came into being of its own private interpretation. For prophecy was not borne at any time by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke being borne along by the Holy Spirit. 

  I asked Doctor Barry Mayberry “What is your biggest problem with patients?” Frowning, he quickly replied “Not taking their medications and self-medicating.” And so it is with too many that profess following Lord Jesus Christ; they getting on and off the pilgrim path paved solidly by the Word living (Jesus) and written (the Bible).

  Since Adam and Eve’s disobedience life is a naked chaotic mass of issues even when we’re enjoying moments of ambient happiness and peace. God’s Word provides walking direction in dealing with issues. However, the Word must be known, understood, and applied by John 1:12 family. (Rom.6:4) As with all issues, this a matter of individual free will choice and action; living for God a life of Romans 12:1-3 repentance. Choices that may result in emotions, but never to be decided by emotions.

  Tomorrow I am sharing a Word lesson with application on a current issue very much in the news.
