Reading the Bible as information won't change you. The speaker argues that the Holy Spirit must turn it into revelation, not just inspiration. Knowledge alone doesn't threaten the devil, but transformation does.
You're reading the Bible, but nothing's changing. Why? Because the Bible isn't just information; it's revelation. It's not a natural book; it's a supernatural book. And unless you receive it in your spirit, not just in your mind, it won't take root. You might remember a verse; you might feel inspired, but inspiration fades. Revelation remains. Jesus said, "The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life." You need the Holy Spirit to receive the word. Without him, it's like reading with blindfolds on. The word can't go deep. And when it doesn't go deep, it doesn't last. If you've been wondering why your spiritual life feels stagnant, ask yourself this: Am I reading the word of God with the Holy Spirit's help, or am I just reading? Because the devil doesn't mind you knowing scripture. He minds it when it gets in your spirit and starts changing you. Don't just read the word, receive it. That's where the power is.
