77 percent of Americans believe morals are declining in the United States. While 66 percent believe the primary cause is a lack of Bible reading, 58 percent said they do not personally seek wisdom from Scripture. In fact, 57 percent said they actually read it less than five times per year. While the Bible remains a highly-valued influence in America, there is a significant disconnect in belief versus behavior. Hebrews 4:12 says, “For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.” The Bible shines penetrating light into the deepest part of a person to reveal wickedness. However, God’s Word provides the ultimate hope, peace and joy through the powerful plan of salvation through Jesus Christ. Ask God to reveal His love and truth to you in His Word every day. Pray also that Americans would pursue the Bible as the road map for their lives. Recommended Reading: Psalm 119:97-105
