The Twelve Spies
Sometimes life can be scary, and you can feel like you’re being stalked in a jungle at night. The slightest snap of a twig can shake you to the bone. Do you know that kind of fear? Timothy knew about that kind of fear and he was looking for answers. Paul told him to fight like a tiger. Don’t be timid. Paul wanted Timothy to earn his stripes by being fierce! He challenged him to guard God’s Word, the Bible, and pounce on anyone looking to deceive other Christians! Don’t Be Timid, Earn Your Stripes by Being Fierce Find this in your HoneyWord Bible on page 1297
Orientation
Sometimes when people go fishing, a fish bites so hard that it takes the bait “hook, line, and sinker.” That means the fish not only swallows the bait and hook, but it swallows even the little metal sinker that keeps the hook below the water. That’s one hungry fish! When we say that a person swallows something “hook, line, and sinker,” it means the person believes everything about it. That’s how God wants us to believe his Word, the Bible. He wants us to take it in “hook, line, and sinker” so we understand it, believe it, and obey it. God’s Book keeps us away from sin and hooked on the right stuff. I’ve Swallowed the Book Hook, Line, and Sinker Find this in your HoneyWord Bible on page 633
The Bible
A one-foot ruler equals 12 inches; not some of the time, but all of the time. Rulers help us draw straight lines and measure things accurately. In the same way, God’s Word is a ruler that helps us mark out straight paths for our lives. And the Bible is the standard that never changes. It’s what we use to measure all things spiritual. How are you measuring up? If you don’t know, it’s probably because you’re just starting to learn the Scriptures. For now, just remember this: God’s ruler for our lives is a supernatural Book. He chose just the right writers and gave them the ability to create one living Book, which perfectly speaks His exact Word straight to your heart. Line up with God’s ruler. It will keep you straight and strong the rest of your life. God’s Ruler Keeps Me Straight and Strong - Find this in your HoneyWord Bible on page 1301
Sin & Salvation
Satan is tricky and speaks through whatever gets our attention. The Bible says that in the beginning, snakes didn’t have to crawl on the ground. They were very smart and very clever. So Satan used a snake to sneak up on Eve and ask: “Did God really say that?” Whenever any voice tells us not to believe God’s words in the Bible, remember that the devil’s behind it, coiled and hissing at us like a snake. Don’t listen. Don’t even get close! Call to God for Help to understand Satin’s tricks. And be ready to go the other way. I Make a Mistake When I Listen to the Snake
Creation
A mirror on its own is just a piece of glass with a special coating. What makes a mirror really special is the way it shows the figure or image in front of it. You probably used a mirror this morning to get ready for the day. Maybe you brushed your hair and made sure your clothes were just right. Your mirror’s job was to show or reflect your image. When God made people, He gave us the job of reflecting His image like a mirror. That’s extra special, isn’t it? Everyone – including you – has God’s image inside. You reflect what God is like just as your mirror reflects how you look! When we are kind and forgiving, we allow God’s love to be “reflected” off our life like a mirror reflects the way we look. Then everyone can understand God a little better. Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall, God’s Image Is In Us All
