DAILY?READINGS: 1 Kings 17; Jeremiah 29; Philemon

Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.  1 Timothy 4:13

Paul called Timothy his true son in the faith. We would do well to heed his fatherly advice and give attention to these three things he mentions. Reading. The only way we can know the mind of God is to read His Word. Read it daily. Read it often. Exhortation. The ministry of encouraging fellow believers in their walk with the Lord is greatly needed today. Is there someone you can encourage in the Lord? Doctrine. We need to know what we believe and why we believe it. Have you made yourself conversant with the foundations of your faith? Give attendance to these things! —Rex Trogdon

The Bible stands though the hills may tumble, It will firmly stand when the earth shall crumble; I will plant my feet on its firm foundation,
for the Bible stands. —Haldor Lillenas
