You know, when reading these Bible verses this morning they seemed to make a slight yet significant change. Why don’t you follow along and discover what I mean?
Let’s get personal okay?
When reading this verse change the us to me and we to I, see how it sounds. With God’s power working in us, God can do much, much more than anything we can ask or imagine.” Ephesians 3:20. New Living Translation
Again, change it from you to me and see how it sounds. “Therefore the Lord longs to be gracious to you, And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you.” Isaiah 30:18 New Living Version
Okay now here’s a turn around. Read it as it is. “I say this because I know what I am planning for you,” says the Lord. “I have good plans for you, not plans to hurt you. I will give you hope and a good future.” Jeremiah 29:11. New international Version
This one change your to my. “Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6 (AMP)
Good share and advice. I often personalize the verse when I read it because God is talking to me. Some verses just jump out at you like God is saying “Hear this, listen to Me.”
I agree.
I like to write them down and repeat them every morning.
God bless you.
