The Word Of God Can Build Us Up

"Now I commit you to God and to the word of His grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified." Acts 20:32 (NIV)

On his way to Jerusalem, the Apostle Paul spoke to the Ephesian Christians. He warned them of the attack on the church that would come after he left. He said false prophets would come, wolves in sheep's clothing, from without and from within their ranks, twisting and distorting The Word of God. Therefore he was committing them to God and to The Word of God.

Today we need to understand that we are under attack by evil forces, and that only God and The Word of God can build us up, strengthen us, and protect us. Praying, reading and studying The Bible will provide us with the spiritual growth, knowledge, and understanding that we will need to guide and direct us in this world of many sinful distractions and pitfalls.
