The Inspired Word Of God

-April 28, 2025-

Good morning, happy Monday,

“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, the man of God may be complete, throughly equipped for every good work.”

(2 Timothy 3:16-17).

There is no book like the Bible. It is the Word of God. God speaks to us through the Scriptures. sometimes you read something that says, “For informational purposes only.” The Bible is not just to fill the mind, but touch the heart and change a life.

The word inspire is defined as, “a divine influence or action on a person believed to qualify him or her to receive or communicate sacred revelation.” It literally means in the Greek, “God breathed.” God used many prophets, apostles, and other holy men of God to speak and write the very words of God by the Holy Spirit.

Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 10:11, “Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for admonition, upon whom the end of the ages have come.”

Today’s text gives four uses of the Scriptures: doctrine, which is teaching; reproof, which is to rebuke someone who has done or speak wrong doctrine or is in sin; correction, which is designed to help someone change their behavior; and instruction in righteousness, which applying the Word in order to live holy, godly, and righteous lives.

The Word of God is living. It is just as fresh and up to date as it was when it was first written. Have a blessed day in God’s Word. Stay safe and healthy.

Knowledge gives understanding, and understanding gives wisdom, and wisdom changes our lives.
