All Scripture Is Inspired By God
And It Is Useful To Teach Us What Is True
And To Make Us Realize What Is Wrong In Our Lives. 

“All Scripture” means that we don’t get to pick and choose only what we want or what we like. “All Scripture” means that we can’t ignore or discard those passages that make us or others feel uncomfortable about our pet sins or an ungodly lifestyle.

                       

Scripture

2 Timothy 3

¹⁶ All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.
 
¹⁷ God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.

Observation

I remember a quote from Pastor Rapley Armstrong about the Bible, “This Book will keep you away from sin and sin will keep you away from this Book.”

“All Scripture” means that we don’t get to pick and choose only what we want or what we like. “All Scripture” means that we can’t ignore or discard those passages that make us or others feel uncomfortable about pet sins or an ungodly lifestyle.

When we are in God’s Word everyday It will help us realize what is wrong in our lives. God’s Word will correct us when we are wrong and will teach us to do right. 

 But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.  For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror. You see yourself, walk away, and forget what you look like.  But if you look carefully into the perfect law that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard, then God will bless you for doing it. James 1:22-25


You and I are sinners. We need to be in God’s Word everyday. We need to let God use It to show us what is wrong in our lives. Trust me we both need God’s help!

We can continue to blame everyone else for everything that is wrong in our lives or we can accept the blame, acknowledge our sin, repent, and allow God to be number One in our life again. 

Then and only then will God bless us! 

Tomorrow is Sunday. Why don’t you make the decision right now to be in church tomorrow? Why not right now put God first? It’s time to do the right thing! It is time to let God have His way in our lives!

Application

I will look forward to being in God’s house tomorrow with God’s people! How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me as I look at Your Word to change the things in my life that You show me are wrong. It is so easy for me to blame others for the ugliness of my own life. Help me to guard Your Word in my heart so I don’t sin against You.
