SPIRITUAL
DIARY FOR 9-04-02
My
Worship Time Focus:
The Scriptures
are true and dependable
Bible
Reading & Meditation Reference: 2Timothy3: 16a
Message
of the verse: “16 All Scripture is
God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in
righteousness, (NIV) 16 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for
teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; (NAS95).”
This verse
and 2Peter 1:20,21, “20 But know this first of all, that no prophecy of
Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation, 21 for no prophecy was ever
made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.”
Are the verses that help to understand how the Bible was written, and how it
was written accurately and with error.
The
Scriptures are “God-breathed,” as Paul writes in verse sixteen. The Holy Spirit used the personality and the
vocabulary of the person who wrote the different books in the Bible so that the
end result was that it was all true. As
Dr. Warren Wiersbe say, “ Not all of the Bible is true, for there are recorded
lies in the Bible, however the record of the Bible is true.
Spiritual
meaning for my life today: It is
important for me, as well as all believers to know that the Bible is true, it
is God-breathed, and that all of it can be trusted. Paul goes on in the verse to say what it can
be trusted for and that is important too.
The Word of God is inspirational to me today.
My
Steps of Faith Today: To
continue to read and study the Bible, and to continue to pray with Sandy each
day.
Memory
verses for the week: 2Timothy 3:16,17
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness, that the man of God may be completely, thoroughly equipped for
every good work.
