The Deaf Devo - The Deaf Missions in Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States for Thursday, 3 August 2017 "Maps" Bible Reading: 2 Timothy 3:14-17
2 Timothy 3:14 But you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, recalling the people from whom you learned it; 15 and recalling too how from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which can give you the wisdom that leads to deliverance through trusting in Yeshua the Messiah. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is valuable for teaching the truth, convicting of sin, correcting faults and training in right living; 17 thus anyone who belongs to God may be fully equipped for every good work.

This morning I stopped to buy gasoline for my car. As I was paying the cashier, I saw a small rack with paper road maps.
Most people today don't use paper road maps. Instead, they have a GPS (global positioning system) in their car that helps them find the way to their destination. I don't have a GPS in my car, but I have been in cars that have a GPS. And I have learned one thing - the GPS is not always right. Sometimes it guides you on the wrong road!
When my life here on earth is finished, I want to live forever in heaven with God. There is no road map or GPS to show me how to get to heaven. But God has given us His Word, the Bible. In the Bible we can learn about Jesus and His death on the cross. And we can always trust the Bible. It is never wrong!
Our Bible verses remind us of how important the Bible is. Read it and learn how to live forever with God.
"These Scriptures are able to make you wise. And that wisdom leads to salvation through faith in Jesus Christ." [2 Timothy 3:15b]
PRAYER: Dear God, thank You for giving me Your Word. I know that it shows me the way to live forever with You. In Jesus' name. Amen.
