Jehovah knows that we need his wise counsel. And his gift, the Bible, is filled with his wisdom. The Bible's counsel has a positive effect on people. The Bible changes lives. When the first books of the Bible were composed, Moses God's people. the Israelites : "This is no empty word for you, but it means your life." (Deuteronomy 32:47) Those who obeyed the Scriptures could enjoy a successful and happy life." (Psalm 1:2, 3) Time has not drained God's Word of its power to improve people's lives. For example, on jw.org, in the series "The Bible Changes Lives," you will find over 50 real-life examples that reveal how the Bible has been powerfully "at work in [its] believers today. - 1 THESSALONIANS 2:13.
No other book is like God's Word. Why is that so? Because the Author of that book, Jehovah God, is almighty, is eternal, and has unparalleled wisdom. Many other books outlast their authors, but the advice those books contain does not always stand the test of time. On the other hand, the wise principles found in the Bible are everlasting; they have proved to be beneficial to people living in every time period. As we read that sacred book and meditate on what we learn, the Author uses his powerful holy spirit to help us see how we can apply the Bible's counsel in our life. (Psalm 119:27; Matthew 3:16; Hebrew 4:12) Yes, the Bible's living Author is eager to help; you. What an incentive to read the Bible regularly!
