December 19 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3:16,17 We do always appreciated what we have in God’s written word. Everything we need is either described or the path of knowing it is explained. All wisdom lies in the word of God. The word is designed to teach us, to correct us and to train us in the path of righteousness. I sincerely wish that we would spend more time reading God’s word instead of reading man’s comments upon the Bible or man’s interpretation of the path of progress. We try to play God in many areas, and I am afraid we sometimes have turned away from the blessings of Scripture. God’s word needs to be read and followed if we are to be adequate for every task. Only by the infilling of His word into our spirit can we be transformed into creatures of good works. Certainly every topic is not mentioned within the Bible, but the important point is that we are equipped by God to interpret, through the mind of Christ, every situation and problem that we encounter. Our adequacy is linked to the adequacy of Christ. Today, Father, let me walk in the confidence that I am supplied by the word of God for every good work. I do not need the plans of others or the goals of self-seeking persons who would rob me of this walk with You. Let me follow only You. Thank You and Amen.
