All Scripture is God-breathed...

2 Timothy 3:16 "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." 


How can you be equipped for everything God has planned for your life?


Read His Word daily. 
Know what the Scriptures say.
Truly know Him through His Word.
Apply the Scriptures to your life. 


There is a fountain of truth, guidance, correction, and comfort  just waiting to be revealed to you through the pages of His Word.  


God wants to give you a deeper knowledge of Him. A maturity of knowledge. This knowledge is received by daily reading of His Word. When I sit down to spend time in the Scriptures, I always pray for His blessing upon my reading, asking for His understanding and guidance. I encourage you to ask Him for a hunger for His Word. He will give you that hunger...  and He will feed that hunger with truths and insights and understanding. 


Often, we rely on others to tell us their opinions of who God is. Don't just rely on what others tell you about God -- read His Word and find out for yourself. Spend time with Him, one-on-one, learning His truths and let Him show how you can apply His Word to your life.  


Dear Heavenly Father, Jesus was called "Teacher" when He was walking among us. LORD, be my Teacher. Teach me Your truths and Your Word. Equip me, through your God-breathed Scripture, for every good work You have planned for me. I pray that You lead me to a deeper personal knowledge of You. Amen.
