About this episode
Most people believe that the phrase “God helps those who help themselves” is from the Bible, but it is not. We know more about our favorite sports team or what a celebrity says, than what the Bible says. Listen to a Bold Steps Minute today as Dr. Mark Jobe reminds us of what’s not in the Bible to encourage us to read it for ourselves.

Here's the president of Moody Bible Institute, Dr. Mark Job, I'm relating God's truth to your daily life. You know what? This husband of mine, he really hampers myself love. So I'm just going to get rid of him. So I can, because I'm going to love myself more. And you know, these children of mine, they're really a headache. I raised him, but I'm going to have anything to do with them because I'm just going to put myself first and I'm going to love myself more. Listen, that might sound good, but it's not biblical. The Bible never says that your plea says our problem is that we love ourselves more than what we love God and put ourselves at the center. That is not biblical teaching, that is not wisdom that comes from unhide. Does this sound familiar? God helps those who help themselves. I heard people say, well, does the Bible say God helps those who don't themselves? No, that's not in the Bible. That's not a verse in the Bible. Learn more about living wisely at boldstepsradio.org.
