God Breathed

All scripture is God breathed

Can you imagine how Paul felt

As he penned those words?

An agent of the Holy God

Inspired from above

 

Looking back at what he wrote

Do you think that he really knew

That he had penned God’s very thought?

 

It is indeed an interesting thought

Written to Timothy

Preserved for eternity

For the benefit of you and me

How can it be?

 

He had a thorn in the flesh

To enhance his humbleness

God’s grace is sufficient for us

His power is perfected by our weakness

 

I have a feeling

That when he was done

He said, “I am an unworthy servant;

My duty have I done.”

 

Yes, Paul wrote

What God Breathed

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. 2 Tim 3:16-17 NIV

In the same way, when you have done all that you were commanded, you should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we’ve only done our duty.’” Luke 17:10 CSB

Therefore, so that I would not exalt myself, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to torment me so that I would not exalt myself. Concerning this, I pleaded with the Lord three times that it would leave me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is perfected in weakness.” 2 Cor 12:7b-9 CSB
