The Word is the Standard for Winning

In this first episode of the Winning Response Podcast, Jen and Crystal discuss the importance of the Bible being our standard. When we read the Word we are learning God's thoughts and ways, which is the foundation to having a winning response.Winning the Heart of God by Rob Thompson1 Thessalonians 2:13 (NIV) - "And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe."Matthew 4:4 (NIV) - "Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"Psalm 119:105 (NIV) - Your Word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path."Proverbs 4:20-22 (NIV) - "My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to one's whole body."Joshua 1:7-9 (AMP) - "Only you be strong and very courageous, that you may do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you. Turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success. Have not I commanded you? Be strong, vigorous, and very courageous. Be not afraid, neither be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."Psalm 103:1-5 (NIV) - "Praise the Lord all my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name. Praise the Lord my soul, and forget not all His benefits- who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's."Hebrews 4:12-13 (NIV) - "For the Word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account."
