2 Timothy 2:15 King James Version – Study to shew (show) thyself approved unto God…
Daniel 9:2 King James Version – In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books…
Hosea 4:6 New International Version – my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. “Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.
God’s elect, study means study; our generation has to sit down to really study, study the scriptures coupled with the purpose why you are on earth. This is why I need you to be close to God so you would know His purpose for your life.
After knowing God’s purpose for your life which is His primary will for your life, you go all out to study about it, not neglecting the word of God. Could it be engineering, fashion, medicine, law, accountancy, whatever it might be, go on a study journey.
A child of God cannot be ignorant about the things that rule the world now, know how to surf the internet, know how to use the GPS, know how to cook or prepare a simple meal for at least five (5) people. Know how to dress your hair, know how to clean your room and lay your bed. Know about your nation and even your family, why and how they bear their surnames.
Don’t just go study things which will not help your Christian life and His purpose for your life; for doing that is just a waste of time.
Prayer
In the Name of Jesus, I receive the discipline to sit and study, amen!
