But as for you, continue in what you have learned and"); document.writeln("have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and"); document.writeln("how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you"); document.writeln("wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed"); document.writeln("and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,"); document.writeln("so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.1

God wants His children to obey Him and make right choices,"); document.writeln("so He accepts full responsibility for leading us. In fact, He promises, \"I"); document.writeln("will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go. I will counsel you"); document.writeln("with my loving eye on you.\" (Psalm 32:8). However, our life is not mapped"); document.writeln("out in an instruction manual that we can read in its entirety. Following the will of God is a daily process of trust.

The Bible does not detail every possible situation we might face,"); document.writeln("but its principles enable us to make decisions about any circumstance we"); document.writeln("encounter. Studying the Bible is the only way for a believer to recognize the"); document.writeln("Lord\'s will. The passage above says that Scripture can give us the wisdom we need"); document.writeln("to be fully qualified and equipped for the work God wants us to do (2 Timothy"); document.writeln("3:15-17).

Suggested Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You"); document.writeln("promise in Your Word that You will make us understand and teach us the way we"); document.writeln("should walk.

Lord, help me to be intentional in studying your Holy Word for it is the"); document.writeln("only way to recognize Your will and acquire wisdom to live life. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
