Proverbs chapter 30 verse 5 says every word of God proves true and he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.

What a promise in this proverb. Every word of God proves true. When we look at the Bible, the inspired

word of God, we can have confidence that it is true it is inherent

without error that it is totally truthful in all of its teachings. It's an awesome

thought when you open your Bible you see 66 books and you know every single word here is true every single word every word every word of God proves true it's

flawless some translations say.

And just think of the security that brings in our lives,

like we can bank our lives on the Bible.

We can bank our lives on every word from God. So it makes sense for the second part of

this verse to say he is a shield for him who takes refuge in him. To find

refuge in God, the God who is true, the God who has spoken, and is every word is true,

bring security to our lives.

You think about so many things in this world that are not reliable that don't prove

true in the end to know that the Bible is true and we can trust it completely.

God, we thank you for your word.

Even as we read it, this particular Proverbs,

this particular chapter in Proverbs, we thank you for this gift you've given us, the true

word that you've entrusted to us for all 66 books in the Bible. We praise you that none of them have any error in them.

That they are all true, true revelation of you and a true foundation for us so God help us to find refuge every single day in the

reliability of your word help us to stand it, help us to believe that we pray, help us to obey

it like we know it's going to prove true. God we know when we live our lives
