As you’ve been reading your bible this week, what portions of Scripture have influenced you and done its ordained work in your life. What transforming work has taken place as a result of the sufficient word of God?
Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass. (1 Thess 5:24 NASB)
This is one of many places in Scripture where we hear of God being faithful and completing His promises. His faithfulness binds Him to finish what he begins. That which God says is that which God does. This is significant to me in that it displays a characteristic of God that is spectacular.
There are countless times when I have said I would do something only to later prove how faithless I am. My family knows this better than anyone. There are no times like this when God behaves like this.
And this is a path that God is moving me down; to be like Him.

I thought I would show you a look inside this pastor’s tool box. These four resources are a ‘must have’ for me. The Lord provided all four of these books through the generosity of his people. I’m Thankful to the Lord for them.
The American Dictionary is a very helpful resource. This resource has been used often
and is a treasure.
AMG Publishers has many Bible study aids. Their resource library is extensive and for students of all degrees. To prepare a sermon without these resources could derail a pastor like me. Like a carpenter trying to build without a plumb-line, I would not want to give exhortation on the things of God without a standard of the original languages of Hebrew and Greek. For this pastor, it would be a risky thing. And with eternity in the balance, I want to be as prepared as can be with the original language. I’m grateful to the Lord for these resources.
I use the New American Standard Bible version of the AMG Publications Word Study Series dictionary, both old and new testament Complete WordStudy lexicons. The American Dictionary of the English Language is a must for me.
Next time I open the tool box I’ll show you some of my online resources and electronic aids that are used every day.

4 The rabble who were among them had greedy desires; and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, “Who will give us meat to eat? 5 “We remember the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic, 6 but now our appetite is gone. There is nothing at all to look at except this manna.” (Numbers 11:4-6 NASB)
