The Holy Bible is the living Word of God. Although many individuals have written various portions of the Bible, the whole scripture is authored by the Holy Spirit. Thus there is much power to change situations and circumstances, to guide and restore, to heal and make wholesome, to change and transform lives in the Holy Bible. All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. ( ref. 2 Timothy 3:16 )

To give you a feel of the miracle working power of God, let us read about Abraham and Sarah from the book of Genesis in the Holy Bible. Although they were beyond child bearing age, based on a promise they received from God, although they were literally dead in terms of child bearing age, they conceived and Issac was born. We know many persons who are quickened by the living Word of God and inspite of challenging circumstances of their body, they received a touch from the Word of God and bareness in their body was healed and fruitfulness came forth. This is what the angel told Abraham. Is anything too hard for the LORD? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.” ( reference Genesis 18:14)
What God has done to one, he will do to any other. Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons. ( reference Acts 10:35 ) . Absolutely anything God has done for a person, he will do for another. Hence every miracle, every breakthrough mentioned in the Bible when mixed with faith as small as a mustard seed can bring a breakthrough for you, for your studies, for your family, in your job, in your health, farm, business or any other aspect. Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” ( reference Mathew 19:26) With man there are limitations. But with God there are none. I can do all this through him who gives me strength. ( reference Philippians 4:13)

“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. (reference Mathew 5: 13-16)
