Bible study: Igniting a passion for God’s Word through effective Bible study practices and methods
Why study the Bible?
Why have a Quiet time/Quality time with the Lord? 6 REASONS
1. Because we hear the voice of God through His word and prayer.
2. Because the Bible is living and active — it is Jesus the Christ (Jn1) — and when we spend time with the Word, we spend time with Him.
3. Because it changes us — we are confronted by sin, challenged to change, we gradually grow more and more into the likeness of Christ; we are shown the best ways to live life and relate to God; we are transformed by the renewing of our minds.
4. Because it benefits us: we learn the way of life and are warned against the way of death; we become better people as we live out God’s word and get to know Him; we are able to side-step the landmines of life; we are guided into blessings and joy; we learn about the God and Savior who created us and loves us.
5. Because we learn about God’s redemptive plan for mankind
6. Because we are better able to live out our calling and destiny — what God created us to do and be about in this life.
I also found a website with more reasons. Check it out here…
