Core Truth: The Bible is God’s living Word and as such, has intrinsic life and power within itself to change the heart of the most hardened soul, the most disobedient or discouraged saint, and even the youngest child, therefore to study its pages on a consistent basis is to release a power and force for godliness that can never be found in any other way.
Scripture: Amos 8:11-12
Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord God, when I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but [a famine] for hearing the words of the Lord. And [the people] shall wander from sea to sea and from the north even to the east; they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord [inquiring for and requiring it as one requires food], but shall not find it.
