Mirror for the Heart

Mirror for the Heart

"For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart" (Hebrews ). God's word helps us examine our faith and our conduct. It also brings to light our hidden faults and sin. It is like a mirror that reflects all of our shortcomings so we may change for the better.

The Bible is "profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness." It equips us to do the good works that God had created us to do. Therefore, the word of God plays an essential part in the sanctification (setting apart for a holy purpose) of believers. This is the reason Jesus prayed on behalf of the believers, saying "Sanctify them in the truth; thy word is truth" (John ).
