Funny when he say staying in bed , i was in my bed watching this video ! 😂 i wanted to get up right there and read my Bible. But i don’t want to do because i have to , please Lord help have this desire of knowing you , take time with you , put a fire in me so that i will return to my first love and be conscious of what is going on , as i pray that for everyone also. Thank you Jesus for adopting us , thank you for your words and your truth that transcend everything , the sword to fight the battle ! Help us to see you and know you in your word , and worship you. In Jesus name amen !
HE is my foundation, He is my Father, and I will forever be eternally grateful for His MANY Blessings that I don't deserve. But I try, and keep trying. It's a relationship with our Father not a religion!!! Love and God Bless us ALL even those who hate You, I pray for them. I love you Father, and I will gladly lay my life down. Thank you will never be enough. I love You Father. I pray for all, with all my heart. Love and God Bless. AMEN.
Awesome.... that very book I joyfully read most morning's. Some mornings I have to pray for strength to get through my readings and other mornings I just have to flat out force myself to read. Although it's not always easy to get up and read each morning, the reality that God wrote a book is what drives me to want to read, the God that saved me wrote a book, that's powerful!!! Most professed Christians claim they just don't have the time to read their Bible's each morning and I turn around and ask, did you have time to brush your teeth and eat breakfast? If the answer is yes, then my second question is, are your teeth and food more important than God?....If you aren't reading your Bible each morning you are doing SOMETHING each morning, Christians are a disciplined people and the most important thing in the sanctification of a Christians life is their daily walk with Christ, in the word. If you aren't in the word each day, I ask you to EXAMINE your faith lest you fall out & perish.

Hi! I just wanted, first of all, to praise God for John's life. This man is incredible and has taught me a lot through his books and sermons. This video and his words blew me away. Literally. So I decided to translate the video to Brazilian Portuguese and I wanted to know if it's okay for me to post in on my channel (as I have already done it) with the Portuguese subtitles, so people from Brazil and Portuguese language countries can be moved by this video as well. I don't intend to have rights over this video at all, although I put my name as the translator of the video for my channel. Thank you so much and God bless everyone of you from Desiring God.

I vecchi tempi in cui guardavo questi video...
With sleeping at last playing in the background 😩. I'm crying
That was sooooooo powerful and i encouraged to reading my Bible again today
How many Christians have not read the Bible from cover to cover yet have read some other self help book. I've been convicted and started daily reading, little by little I've read Matthew, mark, luke, now I'm in John. I feel great peace about reading his word, I don't want to die without being connected to the creator😊 he gave us the tools, I am reading it and asking for it to transform me!
Yes.AMEN AND AMEN!! Beautifull Awesome thank you God forgiving me insight into you heart.
Wow! Such an amazing sermon and production. Well done!
I’ve been struggling to be motivated to read from the book that lets us see the miracles in our lives. This has made my cry like never before. Thank you for this fantastic motivation. I feel uplifted and now connected to our father in heaven. God bless.
What an honour and privilege to have God's written Word, His love letter to us. Reading this AMAZING Book every day has changed my life, His truths has honestly set me free. Thank You God🙌🏼🙏 What a great video. Thank you!!
This is beautiful! Thank you for this! It made me cry, I love G-D and I love Jesus, and I pray Jesus prays for me that I may never stray! G-D please watch over me and all of the lost souls who need you, and watch over all of those in the faith to strengthen them and keep them fighting the good fight and to run the race of faith UNTIL the end!! In Jesus' Holy name, Amen!❤️❤️❤️❤️🌞
Sola Scriptura. The Word of God is Our Life. Amen and amen.
Amen and Thanks.

Thank you so much! It feels like God himself spoke to me through these words...
For every single christian. If your life should consist of only feeling God or participating in fellowship. the dark hours get darker, the times where the world turn against you will seem like endless. Because the bible is the solution. His word breaks trough every single depression, and even beyond. So please pick it up and read it, spend time with it. for the dark times will come #Jesus #Bible
I love this video! Reminds me to turn to God and stop wasting my time with other things. I wish I could spend the rest of my life feasting on God's word!
Awesome!
Thank you for this.
may we turn to your word Lord and internalize your wisdom, may we see you in your word and meet with you

That was so good to hear and watch. Makes me ashamed of my current situation as a bible reader. It made me so much a better christian before, and gave me nourishment until this day, helping me with my struggles. I need to see more out of that window, to the glorious life that God prepared us for, and enjoy it in this life. I'm translating it to portuguese. At 4:37 on the English CC it says: "Watching, waiting for another site of him." Wouldn't it be "Sight" instead of "Site"? Thanks!

I love John Piper.
Bible: Truly, a treasure chest of HIS love.
We have been called to A Life of Ro-mance... If we understand that this is the REASON for Life in the first place, we'll be breathing to have that (A separate intimate time with our SOURCE.... and Our FATHER! ). What we even do afterwards, is from HIM (The mission HE wants to accomplish on Earth - but this time, it'll be from You - So out of LOVE, you work. Excellence, grandeur, diligence and sorts become the result). We've got to teach us minds (that have been tricked and lied to). We got to be renewed that The Ultimate and First Essence of Life lies in Enjoying God. Get to know more about Jesus. We have to also be taught well by Pastors - So learn from Pastors who are solely on Jesus Christ and it will light the fire to know more. We are co-llaborating with our Creator - That alone keeps one dazzled. Thank you John Piper. You have been a vessel by which Christ has dwelled in our hearts by Faith. Thank you Sir.
I love this cath
hello, very good message, i try to add romanian translation but is sayng that the video is not open for contribution. Is there another solution? Thank you
God's World is all I need to be more than a conqueror healthy provided loved saved forginess in faith in the Mighty name of Jesuschrist 👑 Hallelujah 💕👆💞
Hi, is there a music from this video somewhere? Cause i think, that God wants me to make a translation to this video on ukrainian, cause i am ukrainian and i would like to share this video with my church, but i really want it to sound natural. If someone will answer me, i think, it will mean, that God really want me to do this.)

Something that occured to me when I've heard "God wrote a book"', is that , The writer, The author of this book is in love with the reader than the reader ever loves himself or the author. It's insane.
Thats the truth
To God be the Glory only through his Son Jesus the Christ!
I love you John

walk the truth John believes that God manipulates every move of every human being. That means everything ever penned is inspired by God. Why would the bible have any greater importance than what I’m writing? If they were moved by the Holy Spirit and God is moving my thumbs to type this, then what’s the difference?
GOD WROTE A BOOK 🙏🙏🙏
De mais , gostaria de saber se há um versão dublada para português , ou legendada ! obrigado! Jesus é a unica Esperança
