What is the center verse in the Bible? - BIBLE QUIZ

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ANSWER: Psalm 103:1–2 are the two middle verses of the Bible.
Here is the verses, Psalm 103:1–2:
Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

NOTE:
There are 15,550 verses before these verses and 15,550 verses after them(There are 31,102 verses in the Bible (KJV)). There is a belief that Psalm 118:8 KJV, which reads, “It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.” is the middle verse of the Bible. but, this is not correct.

Psalm 117 is considered as the middle chapter of the Bible. According to the King James Version (KJV) of the Holy Bible contains 1189 chapters; Psalm 117 is the 595th; there are 594 chapters before Psalm 117, and 594 after it. Thus, it is 117, not 118, that is the center chapter of the Bible. But, since there are lot of chapters that contain a significant number of verses prior to Psalm 117, the middle verses of the Bible are Psalm 103:1–2.

But, there is no spiritual importance to the middle verse of the Bible. however, it is interesting information us to know"



ENCOURAGING WORD:
Our Trust Is In The Lord
"Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river, and will not fear when heat comes; but its leaf will be green, and will not be anxious in the year of drought, nor will cease from yielding fruit. - Jeremiah 17:7-8 

Several close friends have been hit with problems that came without any warning at all. As the difficulties grew, they became filled with fear and anxiety. I've experienced those types of problems, and possibly you have too. So what can we do when we find ourselves in situations like these?

When I consider the sweltering heat of summer, I often picture myself relaxing on a shaded riverbank, listening to the water wash over the stones.

As much as I enjoy thinking about this pleasant scene, I know there is a deeper meaning to be found in the phrase "like a tree planted by the waters". This spiritual picture has much to say to about life. 

The scripture describes God's word as water. Since God knew we couldn't live and grow without clean, pure water, He filled the earth with a vast supply of it. God's word is also needed for life and growth. This water, the word of God, is the only thing by which we can grow spiritually. The water of the word is also the only thing that will cleanse us from the defilement of sin. God speaks about "cleansing [us] by the washing with water through the word" (Ephesians 5:26). The word reaches deep into the recesses of both the heart and soul. God created us with a need for both physical and spiritual water, and we will die if we do not avail ourselves of either.

When God speaks of a blessed man being like a tree planted by the waters, He is telling us that we need to keep on reading and "drinking" in His word every day. He knows that, when we fill our mind with His word, we will find that the word, like water, refreshes anything it touches. We will also find our "roots" have grown deeper and stronger. This will cause us to be able to stand when the strong, hot winds of troublesome situations blow in upon us.

In God's time, we will also bear fruit, if we obey the admonition to stay by the water. Let's become one of the blessed ones who trust in the Lord.

Prayer: Our Heavenly Father, 
Please help us to grow in grace and in the knowledge of You. Thank You so much for all You have done to show us the way to walk each day. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, In Jesus Loving Name I Pray, Amen.
