Neal’s Lit Word

Title: “Tool for Training ⚒️”

Scripture: 2 Timothy 3:16,17

All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; 17 that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.

Observation: What is God saying to me?

Scripture was given to you as a tool for training. It is My inspired instruction that was written to equip you to be in right standing with Me and to raise you up to be adequately equipped for doing the good works I have placed you on earth to accomplish. If you don’t spend time being equipped in the word, chances are you are not equipped. Spending time in the word is one of the best ways you can spend time with Me. I use the word to speak to your heart and correct you when you get off course. Choose to spend time with Me in the word and I will choose to prepare you for what is coming.

Application: What will I do about it?

Taking time to study Scripture is a huge priority for us. However, it does not end with study. That is not the target we are aiming for. When we study we are shaped and changed, we are also commissioned, positioned and prepared to do the good works God has in store for us. Study the word, but also follow through with what you were shown, taught and told to do.

Prayer:

Father God, thank You for Your word. By it, we are trained for the good You have called us to do here on earth. We want to be faithful to the word You speak to us and follow through on what You say to us. Help us today, Lord. Amen!

I Am Grateful For… the Spirit inspired Scriptures!
