Scripture to Read: 2 Timothy 3:15
We have to love how God gives us such clarity in His Word as we read, study, and memorize His Word. Today we focus on 2 Timothy 3:15, and as we saw yesterday, we are to walk in His Truth that has been taught to us by many godly people in our lives. As God speaks to Timothy and us, through Paul, we note that Timothy was taught God’s Word even as a child. We know from 2 Timothy 1:5 that Timothy’s grandmother, Lois, and his mom, Eunice, are the two who taught Timothy God’s Word when he was growing up. But then God reminds us of how powerful His Word is to transform us from death to life. God says in 2 Timothy 3:15 that His Word will give us the wisdom we need that leads us to salvation through placing our faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Let’s not miss God’s Truth right here in 2 Timothy 3:15. God’s wisdom is found in God’s Word, through our Lord Jesus Christ. We know Christ is our wisdom because God tells us that all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in our Lord Jesus Christ in Colossians 2:3. If anyone needs wisdom, they must start with a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. Then, as believers, pursuing our fellowship with Christ and His Word gives us the wisdom we need to walk through each day’s tests and trials. If we still lack wisdom through our trials, we ask God (James 1:5), knowing He’ll give us all we need.
