Today’s Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16 ESV: All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
Paul instructs us that we can firmly believe that all scriptures were inspired by God and they will teach, rebuke, correct and train us in His righteousness. The world has made “profit” a monetary sign of greed and attempts to minimize the value of the Scriptures.
It is interesting that Paul began this chapter by warning us of these difficult days where people will be lovers of self and lovers of money and all in all will not love good. We are called to love what is good. And how are we to continue in knowing what is good?
Verse 14 states “continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it” We know we learn from the Word of God, breathed for us and for our profit. Paul says the deception will get worse, knowing the Word is priceless.
What profits will you seek today?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for breathing Your Word for us; to teach us, correct us and train us in Your ways. You are the beginning and the end Father and I will continue to learn from You. I love You God and I love what is good. I will seek and love You above all others as instructed in Your word. I firmly believe. Amen
