Study And Be Approved

"Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth." 2 Timothy 2:15

Here is a powerful Truth that will allow us to walk in the fullness of God’s victory and peace through Jesus Christ: we are to study to show ourselves approved unto God. But here is even a greater Truth: we are not alone in our studying. No loving parent ever leaves the education of their child solely up to the child. And God has not left us alone either, we have Jesus with us, and He is helping us and strengthening us to rightly divide the Word of God’s Truth. And because we have Jesus, we will never be ashamed. “I am the Vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in Me, and I in Him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without Me ye can do nothing.” John 15:5 The same Spirit of power that God gave to Jesus, His Holy Spirit, has now been given us, to strengthen us, and to help us in studying and in living God’s Truth. Through Christ we are never alone!
