Study The Scriptures

 

Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Be ambitious and pursue it eagerly Prize it above measure. -1 Timothy 2:15 But now is made manifest, and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith: Romans 16: 26 The writings of the prophets are part of the Scriptures.

The scriptures bring much comfort to us. We have hope in the Words written by God's prophets in time gone by as they were moved on by the Spirit of God.  And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; -1 Thessalonians. 4: 11 We are quiet when we are at rest and peace with God.  Dig into His Word for comfort.

Unto us is given great truths from the Almighty God. There are mysteries yet to be unfolded. God does not want us to be ignorant. He has a beautiful plan for our lives. For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. -Romans 15: 4

Deny the flesh. Sometimes we have to make ourselves make time for quiet and studying the scriptures. It should be a treat to get into the Word to learn more of God. Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. -John 5: 39 

Ye do err, (You are deceived) not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. - Matthew 22: 2 9 
Youth can learn much as they read the scriptures each day. I try to teach my grandchildren about the Word each opportunity I can find. When I was a child we were taught the scriptures. We taught them to our children as they grew up. And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. -2 Timothy 3: 15
