History is His-story

As a young man still in highschool I had my favorite subjects and history was not one of them, I just couldn’t find the purpose in it, but when God saved me He truly did make me a new creation and with that I received a love for studying history. When I read a book about a President or a General or a War I find it so very easy to see the hand of a sovereign God at work in the lives of all men and it gives me great encouragement and ever increasing faith. So while the scriptures should be our main source of study and surely there is no equal to the growth and encouragement we can receive by reading our Bible remember that all of history testifies of our Lord and His mighty power has been revealed throughout all of time, So pick up a book on a historical event or person and remember that History is His-story.
