Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
II Timothy 2:15

There is something so very special about knowing God’s Word.  Probably not only knowing the Word of God, but as the Word says, “studying” so that we are approved unto God, makes it even more exciting.

We have the opportunity each Sunday morning to sing songs with the children of our Sunday School.  Songs about people in the Bible, songs that illustrate Bible stories and it is absolutely wonderful to have the privilege of opening the “pictures” of incidents in the Bible and praying that those pictures become a part of our children’s lives.  After we have sung our Bible Songs, we have prayer.  In our prayer, we ask the Lord to bless each of our classes, our teachers, our director and help all of us to learn today from God’s Word, The Bible.  As we see the children each week, as they grow and become more acquainted with The Bible, the Bible and its contents become much more a part of their lives and it makes us very thankful that we have the privilege of fulfilling God’s direction in helping them to study the Word and make it a vital part of their lives.

Another very exciting thing to behold, is when an adult comes to the Lord and immediately begins to study and memorize God’s Word.  Studying, memorizing and making God’s Word a vital part of everything we do and say is wonderfully important.

My challenge to you today is to commit The Word of God to your memory.  Be prepared to give an account of the hope that is within us by being filled with God’s Wonderful Word.  Today is a perfect day to begin your pursuit of God’s Word by committing to memory the verse at the beginning of today’s writing.  God bless you richly.
