Christ's Glory and the Prophetic Word

2 Peter 1:19-21 And we have something more sure, the prophetic word, to which you will do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts,
knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from some one's own interpretation.
For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
The meaning of this scripture is very deep. It let's us know that all scripture is from God and God alone.
2 Tim.3:14-17  But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.
All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work.
God's word accomplishes his purpose!
Is.55:11 so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
God's word can not be broken!
John 10:35 If he called them gods to whom the word of God came--and Scripture cannot be broken--
Do not add to or take away from God's word!
Rev.22:18-19 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.
Lord. I ask for Your knowledge to be given to those of us who belong to You. Forgive us when we fail You and help us be ever repenting of our sin forYour glory. Amen
