“Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.” – Joshua 1:8

In a talk entitled “Why Bible Study Can Change You”, Nate Dancer said:

“Number one, the Bible shows us how deeply we need the Lord. And, poverty of spirit is an essential element for finding freedom from sexual sin.

When you approach the Bible with an open heart and open mind the Spirit will show you that you can do nothing, and that the life God has for you is one that you are incapable of producing for yourself. This will definitely help produce in you a deep need for him.

Number two, it gives you a window into reality. This is so needed because this world is just permeated with deception. The Bible is the only thing that tells us the truth, the pure truth.

Jesus said, “You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.” So, it leads us to truth.

It also gives us something to live for that’s greater than ourselves.

That is KEY to overcoming sexual sin, and the Bible will help to expand your horizons. It will show you that there are things that are vastly more consequential than, if I could say it this way, our little lives.
Those are just a few ways the Bible helps us.”

Everyone needs to be a student of the Word of God, no matter what age.

Read through your favorite Bible verses and ask the Lord to help you commit them to memory.
