A Wonderful Message on Bible Study.

Today, Pastor Michael is turning over the reigns to David Boudreaux, one of our church elders.  Today, David wants us to read God’s Word and spend as much time in His Word as we can.

The Word of God is the Law of God, the very breath of God.  God didn’t give us just a short study on life; He gave us a detailed guide to follow in His Word, and David will be spending most of today’s message in the Old Testament, specifically in Joshua.

This wonderful teaching that David brings today is an exercise in how, as Christians, we need to be in the Word, always.  David gives many excellent tips on how to read the bible and apply it to study and your life.  This message is a proper foundation for reading the Bible, given by a seasoned pro who has spent considerable time in the Word and is a fantastic reference for new Christians as well as mature ones.

Review the verses section below; David has gone to great lengths to give us verses that apply to today’s message.

(CSB Bible Notes) 1:8 Two more references to the instruction affirm the key importance of God’s revelation. Study and learning of it are to form so much a part of one’s life that the words are fully obeyed as in Dt 6:6-9. The stylistic frame of God’s promised presence in Jos 1:5,9 indicates that Joshua’s success will come because God is with him, enabling him to read and observe God’s Word (Eph 2:8-10).

Today’s verses can be found in John 1: 1-2, Psalms 1: 1-2, Joshua 1: 7-8, Deuteronomy 17, Romans 3: 23, John 6: 44, Ezra 7: 9-10, Hebrews 10: 24-25, 2 Timothy 2: 15, 2 Timothy 3: 16-17, Matthew 28: 20, Proverbs 27: 17, Joshua 3:15, Joshua 23:6, Joshua 24: 15, Revelations 3: 20, Joshua 1: 8, and Jeremiah 33: 3.
