“All scripture is God-breathed…so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 NIV

As you read this devotional, always remember that the power doesn’t lie in the writer’s thoughts or comments but in the written Word of God. Paul tells us, “All scripture is God-breathed.” It’s impregnated with divine seeds of life, and those seeds will spring to life within you, producing the fruit of the Spirit, and “delivering on” the promises of God. View this devotional as a gateway rather than a goal. See it as the little book that whets your appetite for the big Book! When you read each day’s devotion, have your Bible beside you and turn to the scriptures that are referenced. As you deposit the Word of God within you every day, wonderful things will begin to happen in your life. The psalmist wrote, “Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do” (Psalm 1:1-3 NLT). Note the words “they prosper in all they do.” As you renew your mind with scripture, your faith will grow, your outlook will be altered, and every area of your life will start to change for the better. “All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
