Today we are discussing why we should study the Bible and I am going to begin by asking a few questions for each of us to think about. When was the last time you felt like you just had to share what you read with someone else? When was the last time you ran across a passage that drove you immediately to your knees in prayer for yourself or a friend? When was the last time your heart leapt for joy when God opened your eyes to see wondrous things in His Word?

My friends, there are many Christians who are spiritually starved and weak because they ignore the spiritual nourishment that God has provided in the Bible. The Bible, which is the Living Word of God, is not an option for growing spiritually strong; it is a necessity. Just as we eat to sustain our physical body, we must consume the Bible to sustain our spiritual body. Job said, “I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my daily bread” (Job 23:12). The Bible should be this important to each of us.

If we are not reading or studying the Bible because we can’t find the time or we don’t consider it important, we might need to reevaluate our priorities. Jesus said, “Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness” in Matthew 6:33. And Jesus also said in Luke 12:48, “To whom much is given, much is required”. God expects us to invest our time, resources, passions, and service in that which has eternal value.

The more the Word connects directly to our life, the more we see how living and active it is. The more we see ourselves strengthened by the Lord in our everyday responsibilities, the more we see the wonder in what God has given to us in His word — and we begin to know the Word’s power from our own personal experience.
