Study and Prayer

Why should we live for Jesus? Because He lived and died for us! His love was a dying love. Now show your love for Jesus by obeying God's Word. (Go ye therefore and teach all nations.)Matthew 28:19 KJV

Once we have believed God's Word and know that we have eternal life, the next step in Living For Jesus is to study and pray. We need to allow the Word of God to become part of our every day routine. As we read and study the scriptures they will begin to help us make wise and better choices based on the truth of God's Word. 

Think of it this way. When we take our thoughts and prayers to God, it is our way of talking to Him. And when we read and study the bible, God is speaking back to us and answering our prayers. It helps us to establish a healthy growing relationship with God.

We all have a lot to learn from God and we can spend all our years and eternity learning about everything He has prepared for us. (Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love Him.)1st Corinthians 2:9 KJV
