Is there power in the word of God? Witness Jesus when He was tempted by the devil in the wilderness. How did He defeat him? Three different times Jesus said when He was tempted, "It is written!" There is power and strength for us in the word of God so that we can stand strong in the face of temptation and adversity. We must read and study the word of God in order to show ourselves approved to God, workmen who are not ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
