Why Bible Study Lessons are so
Important
Many people (including
myself) are so busy and stressed out these days
that they sometimes forget one simple way to
improve the quality of their lives.
Fact is, God gives us
everything that we need (not always what we want)
to apply to our lives and relieve some of our
everyday problems and challenges.
Here is another challenge - I
suggest that you take a few minutes every morning -
maybe 5 days a week? and read your Bible. When
reading, ask these simple questions ...
- Know
What - This is simply reading the
story and learning what information is
given
- So What?
- Study to learn the meaning of the
verses
- Now
What? - What is the life application
message? How can I use this Bible study
information today?
By asking yourself these
questions as you do your Bible study lesson, you'll
discover that God is talking to you in ways you
could only imagine. I know each time I look at the
verses and write commentary from the research I get
a message - many times directly related to whatever
is going on in my life at the time.
You can too! So, let's take
some time and do a Bible study lesson together. We
will both benefit by learning more about Christ and
letting Him guide our actions. God
Bless!!
