Pasa Graphe' Theopneustos Kai Ophelimos (Greek) is one of the most often-repeated passages from the Scriptures, ie, the Bible.  The passage appears in the heading of our Facebook page.  But what does it say to us in our various tongues?  Well, for those of us who speak English, this passage is a bold testimony from the pen of one Paul, a first-century scholar from the Isrealite tribe of Benjamin.  It is also a statement steeped in the thelogy of the Biblical narratives.  So, Paul wrote to a young ethnic Jew named Timotheus: "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable......"
At the time Paul wrote those words, there was not yet a codex known as the "New Testament."  The scrolls of papyrus on which were written the Scriptures are what we call today the "Old Testament."  In its immediate and limited interpretation, Paul is saying that the messages in the Old Testament are inspired by God.  That being so, who is the man who would say that the record of the flood in Noah's day was simply an allegory, and not an historical account?

Daniel was in the habit of praying (Dan 6:10-13), therefore the Lord "shut the lion's mouth" (vs.22) and "the living God" (vs.26) "delivered Daniel from the power of the lions" (vs.27).  So, "pray without ceasing" (1Thess. 5:17) for "the Lord's ear is not too heavy that He cannot hear" (Isa. 59:1).  Our Prayer Warriors meet regularly to talk to our Creator about everything and anything. Personal challenges, family issues, a sick friend, a prodigal son, family finances, an upcoming examination, the mental state of a friend, the young man on-the-block, our nation's economy, religious liberty and freedom, church leadership, protection from the deceiver, evangelism, direction for a child, an uncommited husband, taking a loan, unentered territory, the homeless and abandoned, the godless, and the list goes on.

The Bible recalls several instances where prayer brought about the healing of a sick person (Peter's mother-in-law; Hezekiah), release from prison (Paul, Silas, Peter and John), the restoring of a nation (Israel), the end of a severe drought (Elijah's effort), extreme miracles (the reverse of the sun) and ...............................
