Study The Word of God!

Good Morning!

Ignorance of God's Word makes us confused, double minded, keeps us in darkness and weakens us!

It is better we search ‪God's Word‬ prayerfully to know God's thoughts on any matter, than search on Google which will only leave us confused!

God's Word says,

2 Timothy 2:15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

We may read God's Word daily but when was the last time we sat down to study and search the Word of God?

Hebrews 4:12 "For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and discerns the thoughts and intents of the heart."

If we do not seek and search, how will we find and know the truth?

Only when we study His Word we can discern right from wrong and know what is acceptable to the Lord. May we too daily take time to search God's Word to find out what God has to say and not believe all the different teachings we hear on TV, read on the net etc.

The Bereans not only received the word in all readiness but they also searched the scriptures to confirm if the things they heard preached were true!

In ancient times, the Bereans were the inhabitants of the city of Berea, also known in the Bible as Beroea, and now known as Veria in what is today Greek Macedonia, northern Greece.

Acts 17:10 "Then the brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. When they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews. 11 These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these."

What is it, though, that made the Bereans so special? The Bereans did not blindly believe but examined what they heard by comparing it to the Old Testament Scriptures. The fact that they honestly listened and conducted further personal research led many Bereans to faith in Jesus as the Messiah. They are a positive example of how a person has to respond to biblical teaching.

May we not blindly believe all we hear and read and form our opinion of Yahweh and His Word! Let us ourselves Read His Word and get to know Him and His Will.

Be blessed studying His Word,
