0:00.0	Pray the word with David Platt is a resource from Radical.net.
0:30.0	He's basically rebuking Job's three miserable comforters for all the things they had said
0:38.4	wrongly or applied wrongly. And Allah who is pointing out here that in order to have understanding,
0:48.8	we need the Spirit of God to work in us. We need the breath of the Almighty in us in order to have
0:57.6	knowledge in order to have understanding. And as I read that phrase, well, you can't help,
1:03.3	can you, but to think about a place like second to earth each after three talking about scripture,
1:08.8	how all scripture is what? It's God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking,
1:16.8	correcting and training in righteousness. Like the word of God is God breathed. It's the breath
1:24.2	of the Almighty. And the word of God is necessary for knowledge and understanding in this world.
1:33.0	So I just want to encourage you and lead us to pray in gratitude when it comes to the gift we have
1:40.8	in God's word and God's Spirit in us to open our eyes and our minds to understand his word,

2:01.9	There's a reason why the Bible talks about God's word as being our daily bread, our sustenance,

2:24.0	chapter one, day and night, day and night and being careful to do according to all that is written
2:30.0	in it. It's a lamp to our feet, Psalm 119 and a light to our path. So God, we praise you for your
2:37.3	word. We praise you for breathing it into life for inspiring by your Holy Spirit,
2:47.5	those who have written down your word that we might have this revelation of who you are and
2:54.2	how you work and what you're doing in the world and how you love us and promises to stand on and
3:00.9	commands that lead to life. We praise you for your word. We praise you for scripture that is
3:07.9	God breathed and we praise you for your spirit in us even now as we pray and all day long as we go
