A Guide for Life

Have you ever sat and wondered about the importance of doing a Bible study? Why is it so important to ensure that we are spending time daily in God’s word? By doing our Bible studies we understand more of God’s word, we understand a little bit more about God and our faith in general. All of this is a very good thing, but did you know that doing a daily Bible study helps you in day to day life events?

“21 Bind them continually on your heart;
Tie them around your neck.
22 When you walk, they will guide you;
When you sleep, they will watch over you;
And when you awake, they will talk to you.
23 For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching is light;
And rebukes for discipline are the way of life”

Proverbs 6:21-23

When we are daily in the word of God, we begin to understand more about His word. This also means that we can often remember a general idea of where a certain verse or topic is found in the Bible. The more we study His word, and study it seriously, the more it becomes ingrained in our minds. His word becomes bound to us. This is important because as we face this crazy world and everything in it, we need to understand why we rely on the word of God. As we walk through life; His word guides us, as we lay down His word is the comforter, and the more we study His word, the more the Bible talks to us and guides us in our situation.

The Bible is not just some boring book that is irrelevant to life today. It is the hope and joy of a born-again believer who understands the knowledge that is hidden through out the sixty-six books. “It is the glory of God to conceal things,
    but the glory of kings is to search things out.” Proverbs 25:2. The Bible is a living book that guides us through our life. It is the assurance that we need that God loves us, that He will stand by the promises He has made, and that we can lean on His strength as we face this world.

Seek the truth and encourage one another,
