Study God's Word

"Study to show thyself approved to God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2 Timothy 2:15

Study God's Word. God has given us His Holy Word to help us live the Christian life. In God's Word, the Bible, we can learn about God; we can learn about the life of His Son Jesus Christ; we can learn how God wants us to live.

The Bible is divided into two parts: the Old Testament, which tells the story of God's dealings with the children of Israel, and the New Testament, which tells of Jesus Christ and the early Christian church. It is great to study God's Word! God can transform your life through the power of the Bible.

Here are some quick suggestions on how to study God's Word.

1. Daily -- Read the Bible some every day
2. Start -- Begin by reading the New Testament; you can start with the gospel of Matthew
3. Pray -- Pray and ask God to reveal Himself and His will to you through the Bible
4. Think -- Think about what you are reading and how it can apply to your life
5. Act -- Do what the Bible says to do

"For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart."

So, this week, let us pray that
  • God will help each of us study His Word every day
  • God will help Global Media Outreach make disciples of every nation
  • God will help you live according to His Word in the power of the Holy Spirit
THANK YOU for your prayers.

May God bless you.
