ALL SCRIPTURE IS GOD-BREATHED!

2 Timothy 3:16-17 – Devotional

2 Timothy 3:16-17

“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.“

Our local newspaper (I use the term very loosely) carries a minister’s message each Friday. Last Friday there was an article written by a practitioner of a group that does not hold the Word of God as our final authority.

I was grieved to read her comments about heaven. That’s right, she does believe in heaven, but it is a heaven of her own devising and not what the Word of God saya bout heaven. Her heaven is comprised of anyone and everyone whitout regard to requirements for entry. She also had the audacity to say that these questionable characters in heaven pray for us here on earth.

It was extremely clear that there was little or no understanding of what God’sWord has to say. Without reading and understanding God’s Word, we can and will be blown about like a tumble weed in a windstorm.

Paul’s challenge to his son in the faith, Timothy, is bold and broad. he says that “all” Scripture is God breathed (inspired). It is not selective portions, but the entire Bible from Genesis to Revelation that show forth God’s plan, purpose and design for each and every one of us.

It is only by spending quality time in His Word that we will be able to tell the false teachers from the true. how about making a vow to the Lord to spend at least ten minutes a day reading and meditating on His Word. This very first day of January for the new year would be a great time to start.

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!

​PASTOR CECIL · HE IS ALL WE NEED​​​! Psalm 37:39 – Devotional

HE IS ALL WE NEED​!​​

Psalm 37:39 – Devotional

Psalm 37:39

“The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; He is their strength in the time of trouble.“

Many of us who have traveled with children in the car remember the constant refrain from the back seat, “Are we there yet?” Hearing this over and over again can quickly become a source of irritation.

In the same way we expect God to act upon our requests on our schedule rather than on His. Joseph or Job are excellent examples of what it means to wait upon the Lord.

If God hears our prayer (and He does), why does it take so long for us to see the results? Certainly the element of timing may be involved, but we need to understand that we are part of God’s perfect plan at work.

Just because we do not receive answers in our timing does not mean God does not hear us, or that He is unconcerned about us. Remember that He is in absolute control and in His time the answer will come. Our part is to remain faithful and keep our eyes on Him, not on our request. “HE IS ALL WE NEED!”

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!

​PASTOR CECIL · SOMEONE CARES​​​! Galatians 5:13 – Devotional

SOMEONE CARES​!​​

Galatians 5:13 – Devotional

Galatians 5:13

“Dear brothers and sisters, we have been called to enjoy liberty, but we must never use our freedom to obey the flesh, but rather to serve each other.“

Thinking back across almost ninety years of my life, I am stunned by the degree society has seemingly become more self-centered and greedy. Don’t get me wrong, the heart of man (and woman) has always been sinful by nature, but it seems to be increasingly so.

I think we as born again believers have a calling, as never before, to live our lives in such a way as to serve others in the manner in which the Lord Jesus would have us serve.

For that to happen, we of necessity must begin each day by talking to the Lord. Open your Bible and also your heart. Prepare yourself to receive your marching orders for the day, then go out to fight the fight of faith!

Perhaps the best way to fight the fight of faith is to consciously be aware of ways to aid and assist others. That may be by a gift, a word of encouragement, or simply a smile. The important thing is to let someone know that someone cares!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
