"Now it is required that those who have been given a
trust must prove faithful."
1 Corinthians 4:2
Dear Christian,
How faithful are you to study of God's Word? As a Christian,
you are a disciple. A disciple is a
student of the Word. Today, what is your
grade as a student of the Word? A, B, C, D, F?
On a scale of 1-10, 10 high, how would you rate yourself as being
faithful to study of the Word?
(____) How would God rate your
faithfulness? Are the two ratings the
same?
The same message that Paul wrote to Timothy, he writes to us
today in 1 Timothy 2:15. "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a
workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of
truth." Have you chosen to be a
student of the Word? Do you present
yourself prepared and ready for study?
When you show up at church for Sunday service or during the week for
Bible study, do you show up prepared and ready for study? Do you have with you your study tools --
i.e., Bible, pen, paper, phone, tablet, laptop? At some point after any church
time of study, do you review the message through your personal notes, cd, dvd,
blog, online notes, other? Do you devote
daily time to study of the Word? How
much time?
What are you willing to do differently moving forward? How serious a student are you willing to
be? Remember, if you do what you've
always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.
