My awesome, wonderful Grandchildren, and Annika and Kaleigh, whom I love and pray for every day: God commands His servants, “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed…” (2 Tim. 2:15)
The Bible is the inspired Word of God. It is God’s written Instruction Book to mankind. It answers every important question in life. It explains how to live—and reveals the road to becoming a born-again Christian.
THEN WHY DO SO FEW KNOW HOW TO STUDY THE BIBLE?
First, we must ask, why study the Bible? “Study to show yourself approved unto God, A WORKMAN THAT NEEDS NOT TO BE ASHAMED, rightly dividing the word of truth.” (2 Tim. 2:15)
The apostle Paul tells us that proper Bible study leads to APPROVAL FROM GOD. The same verse also speaks of other benefits. First, as workmen, we need not be ashamed—if we study God’s Word. Instead, studying becomes fulfilling and satisfying. We have done what God expects us to do—an acceptable type of self-approval.
Rightly dividing the Word of Truth—knowing the Bible, inside and out—takes a lifetime. God’s Holy Spirit opens one’s mind to this spiritual understanding. “Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your word.” (Psalms 119:18).
OPEN OUR EYES LORD, REVEAL YOUR WORD TO US…
