Devotion: Continue in What You Have Learned

A Word for the Day

The Christian life is a life of steadfastness and consistency.  It is a life of remaining true in the midst of adversity and suffering.  It’s also a life of remaining faithful to the Lord and to what He teaches in the Bible.  It’s a marathon not a sprint.

Continuing in what you have learned was Paul’s advice to Timothy.  Paul was referring to Timothy’s knowledge of the Holy Scripture.  The Bible’s teachings are what will make us wise for salvation.  They are what will train us in righteousness.  And the Bible is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path.

2 Tim. 3:14 (ESV)

But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it

We too must listen to Paul’s advice to Timothy and continue consistently in the truth.
