Bible Study Tips:
The best way to always start your Bible studies is with a prayer for understanding—asking the Lord to guide you through His Word, revealing knowledge and meaning through hidden scriptures.

The second important step in Bible study is knowing what you are seeking to learn for the day. Many people jump around in God’s Word instead of focusing on one main topic, such as faith, peace, or charity. Choose one, then search the Scriptures for all passages that speak on your topic. It’s an easy and effective way to learn.

Thirdly, always set a designated time to seek understanding of God’s Word. In doing so, remember that true insight and knowledge of God come when you are in the Spirit. Being in the Spirit allows the Holy Spirit to fill you with the presence of God, and through that, all things will be revealed to you.

The final Bible study tip to emphasize is the importance of constant seeking. Do not stop seeking once you feel you have received something important from God that brings you comfort. You must continue seeking until your spirit reaches its full depth of being fed.

Most people stop at the peak of learning something new instead of waiting on the Lord to completely fill their spirit.

Bible study is only part of learning God’s way of life for you. It helps you in doing His will. Stay true to it, and He will stay true to you.
