Spiritual maturity takes daily effort. It is only when you approach Bible study in a sincere, organized, and consistent manner do you begin to truly understand that God’s will is pleasing and perfect (Romans 12:2). Bible study as God intended it to be, is rich, exciting and should be a life-changing experience. Here are a few questions I have found helpful to ask myself in my daily Bible study. Is there an example to follow? Is there a sin for me to avoid? Is there a command for me to obey? Is there a promise for me to claim? These questions are helpful in the application of the Scripture. The lack of application is a reflection of one’s lack of commitment to the Lord.
