You may say “I’m too busy.” “I don’t have time.” We all find time to do what we want to do.
You do have time to spend with God if you make time for Him.
Get up earlier and spend an hour first thing in the morning.
Give up time on the computer playing games or watching Tic Tock. Give up watching TV for an hour or even reading.
What about your weekend. Take an hour away from your leisure pleasure. Go to church.
You decide what is more important in your life. God needs to be our priority.
Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
These are 2 verses in the Bible that if you follow them, God will direct you in the path He has chosen for you.
Sometimes we do not understand where He is leading us but we can trust Him. He will lead us to a life of blessing. Maybe not an easy path but a path of obedience and blessing.
Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. Acts 20:28
Do you want to be successful when you are at work? Then study the Bible! Not only will you please GOD, you will be a great employer or employee.
The Bible is an amazing book! In it’s pages are answers to all of our life’s questions.
Where dis we come from? What am I supposed to do? Why are these things happening? Who can help in times of trouble?
These are questions we have all ask at one time in our lives. All the answers are in the Bible. God has a plan and a purpose for each of us. As we read His Word that plan becomes clear. It may not happen the first time you look for it, it may take time.
It may come in a part of the Bible you have read many times before, and then there it is! The answer. and we think why did I not see that before. Today, let us thank God for giving us the Bible,
A little humor for you today, with a lesson. It is important to read your Bible and communicate with God daily. He will give you direction, wisdom, and answers to life’s problems in His Word.
Psalms 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Do you have a problem that you do not know how to solve? You need wisdom in guidance to help you.
True wisdom can only be found in God’s word. A good place to start is in Proverbs. Proverbs has 31 chapters. Start the first of the month and you have a chapter a day.
The book of Proverbs will help you live the kind of life. God wants you to live. It will help you with relationships. It gives advice on how to be a good parent.
Tells you some of the pitfalls of life and how to avoid them. Advice on the kind of friends to choose.
Another thing you can do is look up wisdom in the Bible, and all the verses that have that word in them will come up and you can read what God has to say about His wisdom. Also, ask God to give you wisdom, and He will give it to you .
On the SOS Events display board there is a question. “Are you 50%, 75% or 100% sure if you died today you would go to Heaven?
That is an important question, but what if you leave out the first line? It would read, If you died today you would go to Heaven.
What is the difference? The sentence that asked the question makes a person wonder if they know they will go to Heaven and makes them think about wanting to know how to get there.
Leave that out and the whole meaning changes. Now it is telling the person reading it that if they die they will go to Heaven.
Words make a difference. Change even one word and the meaning can change. Leave a word out and the meaning can change. Even rearranging words can change the meaning .
The Bible has many versions today. Some of these versions change words and even meanings of what God wants us to know.
Study for yourself and see what God wants to say to you.
Why is it important to study God’s Word? The Bible gives us the answer in one verse.
