3 Tips For Study
Slow
down – Desire quality more than quantity.
Think
about what you are studying – go over it several times! Meditate on it.
Think
about how what you are studying applies to you.
Before
you hear, read or study the Word; make a decision that with God’s help you will
do what the Word says to do or not to do. (Exodus 24:7)
When
the opportunity presents itself, discuss what your are studying with someone
else.
If
one thing stands out to you, or you are quickened in your heart that you really
need more in that area, look up other scriptures on the same subject.
Fight
the good fight of faith with the Word – For example, if you are worried look up
and meditate on scriptures that tell us not to worry.
The
one thing that is needed to study the Word of God is time! If you are willing
to put time into it and be diligent to be committed to keep at it, you will
know the truth and the truth will make you free!
It is God's will that no one should perish (end up in hell), but that ALL should come to repentance.
For God so loved this world that He gave His only begotton Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God did not send His Son into this world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him would be saved.
The thief (Satan the devil) comes only for to kill, steal and destroy. But Jesus has come to give us life, and life more abundantly, until it overflows.
I urge you to come to the Cross today and receive Jesus as your Savior and Lord. He will wash away all your sins and make you as clean and white as fresh snow.
Just pray this prayer and mean it with your heart:
Dear Lord Jesus (if you are not able to call him Lord yet, then just say "Jesus")
I receive You as my Savior and Lord. I give my life over to You. I believe that You died and rose again, and that if I call on the Name of the Lord I shall be saved.
I accept you into my heart right now, and confess that You are Lord and have risen from the dead and forever live to make intercession for me.
Thank You for washing my heart pure and clean and making me whole, and for giving me peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Thank You that now I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. The old has gone and the new has come.
And there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh (carnality and sin), but walk after the Spirit. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, I believe you got born again and are now heaven bound and will be with the Lord forever and have eternal life. Your sins are now forgiven. You are accepted in the Beloved.
I would encourage you to find a good Bible based local church to help you grow in your faith, to learn the Word of God, to praise and worship Him, and to have fellowship with the saints.
Serving Christ is the best decision you will ever make.
God bless you!!!
