The word of God is living and active.
—Hebrews 4:12
Do you have a favorite Bible verse?
Martin Luther did. The thought of facing God on judgment day terrified him until this verse—which appears once in the Old Testament and three in the New—calmed, captivated, and consumed him: “The just shall live by faith” (Hab 2:4; Rom 1:17; Gal 3:11; Heb 10:38).
This single verse catapulted Luther’s life from fear to faith and empowered him to launch the Reformation.
John Bunyan, Sir Walter Scott, John Knox, David Livingston, Charles Spurgeon, and John Wesley are a few among many who have been comforted, convicted, and compelled by a specific verse. Motivated by “their” verse, they changed their world.
