“Study!”

Blessings Folk!

Schools are cranking back up…”public”, private, homeschool…

Pray for the students, the teachers, the administration and all the support personnel.

For those of us who have “finished school” there is still much to be done.

Whether in or out of school, we as believers have a higher calling.

We must know the truth of the Word of the Lord.

We will be held accountable. We have unprecedented access to the Word. We have unprecedented abilities to communicate, to hear, to speak, to impact the world.

The Truth of the Word will enable us to stand firm in the face of untruth such as:

• “world peace depends upon safe-guarding God’s creation” This was posted today: http://www.ptinews.com/news/463415_Pope-denounces-failure-to-forge-new-climate-treaty The pope said it. Amazing.
• many are deceived as to what the “church” is. Knowing the Word will give understanding.
• things that are happening in the world could be successfully addressed, if we knew the Word...if we lived the Word.

Therefore, let us put into action what the Lord tells us -

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

If you are in “school”, study. Do your best - to the praise and honor and glory of God. Learn the strategies and teachings of the enemy and the world. Swallow the meat and spit out the bones. Yet, give the best time to the Word. Seek His discernment, enlightenment, illumination, revelation and knowledge.

If you are “outta school”, study. Give heed to the Lord and His Word.

If you spend more time with

• television
• radio
• books (even books about the Bible/God/etc.)
• movies
• sports
• “amusements” (you do know what that word means?… “a” means “not”…”muse” means to “think upon, reflect”...therefore “amusement” means “not to think or reflect”...also, "to stare stupidly at, be bewildered")

...than you do the things of the Kingdom, then some adjustment might be in order.

Locally, we are about to begin a new study - 2 Samuel/1 Chronicles, “David, A Man After God’s Own Heart.” Come and join us. Monday at 6 p.m. or Tuesdays at 9 a.m. Send me an email for details.
