Trained For Righteousness

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.

God’s WORD Is Free From Chains!

S. O. A. P. Here’s Your 90 second AM Devotional! S-cripture: 2 Timothy 2:9 For which I am suffering even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But God’s word is not chained. O-bservation: Paul wrote this letter to his young associate Timothy from a Roman prison. Paul was concerned that he was viewed as a common criminal. It is true that he was in prison because of what he believed and preached. Yet he was quick to proclaim this truth, “God’s WORD Is Free From Chains!” A-pplication: How many times have you wondered if your life mattered for the work of the Lord? I...
