Psalm 138:2
Scripture is the
revelation of God throughout history, and it proves to be authoritative and
powerful. In the same way that there is no higher authority or power in an
earthly kingdom than a king; in God’s kingdom, there is no higher authority or
power that one can appeal to that is greater or more powerful than the Word of
God.
I.The Bible is
the Inspired Word of God.
·
In
this sense of the term, "inspiration" means divinely guided,
but a more literal meaning would be “God-breathed”.

II.The Bible Induces
the Work of God.
·
Anytime
that God desires to do something on earth, he does so through a channel,
or an agent for his purposes.
·
No
one is ever saved apart from the instrumentality in some way of the
incorruptible, imperishable Word of God.
·
Not
only is the Word of God an incorruptible seed that has power to
produce spiritual life, the Word of God is the power; therefore, it will not
return back to God empty, but will permanently impact and powerfully affect
anyone who hears it.
