One of Charles Spurgeon’s great quotes is – “Study the Word, so that your faith may not stand on the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” This is so true! If we listen to others speaking “about” God’s Word, while never delving between the pages of the Bible for ourselves…we are only putting our faith & trust in what they say…and we all know where that could lead us. So, it’s essential that quality time be spent studying the Word. Proverbs 23:23 tells us to get wisdom, disciple and understanding, and this can only be found by getting into God’s Word. In Romans 11:33 and Colossians 2:3, Paul writes of the hidden treasures & depth of riches of Godly wisdom & understanding…again, only obtained by reading & studying God’s Word for ourselves. For when we diligently strive to make Bible study a priority in our lives, God is faithful to give wisdom (James 1:5) and cause the Word to come alive.
