Week Eleven: Day Five

Hammer-Time
“‘Is not my word like a fire?’ says the LORD, ‘and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?’”- Jeremiah 23 v 29 [NKJV]

Anyone that says the Bible’s boring really doesn’t know what they’re on about!

1. Is not my word like a fire?

  • Fire’s warm! God’s Word is full of truth that will bless you, encourage you and warm your heart!
  • Fire gives light! The Bible shows people the way to God, and the way to live!
  • Fire burns! God’s message will burn deep into your life, burning up all the stuff that shouldn’t be there and making all the good stuff shine like gold!
  • Fire spreads! As the Word changes your life, it’ll start affecting everyone else around you too!

2. …and like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?

  • If there’s anyone you think is just too hard-hearted for God – God’s Word is what they need to hear! He can smash right into their lives like a sledgehammer!

God’s Word is red hot and seriously heavy!!!
