The power of God

Romans 1:16
I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek

The Bible isn't just a book of words, but, 'the power of God'. It's not a book of instructions/stories or advice, it's, 'the power of God'.

People often find it hard to get stuck into reading the Bible, and some find It boring or deem it irrelevant. 
Perhaps that's because we don't come at it from the right angle. 
If every time we pick up the Bible and turn its pages we recognise that God's power is contained within it, maybe we would treat our time reading it differently. Maybe with eager expectation that the power of God can change our lives, give us direction and hope. Maybe, if we realise that the Bible is truly the word of God then we would look forward to spending time curled up with a cuppa and engaging with it.

So, let's get stuck into absorbing, 'the power of God' - it might just change your life!
