God wants us to have knowledge of His Word; to study and
meditate on it. In 2 Timothy 2:15 (KJV) it says, “Study to show thyself
approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing
the word of truth.” My pastor often says that we know the Bible as well as we want
to know the Bible. Studying God’s Word can be exciting, in fact, I’ve already
written about a time when my enthusiasm was renewed in my post called The Greatest Story Ever Told. Not only should we seek out knowledge, but we should
share that knowledge with others and pass it on to our children, teaching them
also to study the Bible. If you want to read and study God’s Word but don’t
know where to start, Proverbs is full of short sayings and advice. It even
states in Prov. 1:1-7 that its purpose is to give knowledge and insight. Do you
have a favorite passage or book in scripture that you have studied?Monday, April 13, 2015
Knowledge
“The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge; the ears of
the wise seek it out.” Proverbs 18:15 (NIV)

I am currently participating in the Blogging from A to Z April 2015 Challenge. My theme is life lessons from the Bible. You can find more information about the challenge by clicking on the badge to the right or click here for a list of participants. It has been an interesting experience so far and I have enjoyed finding and visiting other blogs. If you are a fellow participant, thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave a comment!
