Only one book can carry an unqualified endorsement, and that is the Word of God. That’s why the psalmist writes “Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way” (v.128). All of the Bible is inspired. That means it is God-breathed. “All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable” ( II.Tim.3:16). Inspiration is a miracle. The Spirit of God spoke to Moses, Isaiah, Matthew, Mark, Paul and others, and each put his own fingerprints on what he wrote. Yet this is God’s Word.

Remember also that all of God’s Word is inerrant. It is absolute truth. What the Bible says about history is correct. What the Bible says about prophecy is correct. Even what it says about science is correct, although it’s not a science book. We don’t test the Bible by the wisdom of men. We test the wisdom of men by the Bible. This means that we should live by all of Scripture. Jesus said we must leave “by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God” (Matt.4:4). Every word. Oh, what you might be missing If you’re not reading the whole Word of God! Because the Bible is inspired and true, we can go to it and say, “Lord, what should I do?” He has an answer for us.

The Bible is a miracle, for it is inspired by God. Live by its wisdom and truth. It leads to a miraculous life when you accept and obey it.
