You need teaching 2.

Thursday, October 20th.
You need teaching 2.

“Till I come, devote yourself to [public and private] reading, to exhortation (preaching and personal appeals), and to teaching and instilling doctrine.”
1 Timothy 4:13(AMP)

There are many ways through which you can expose yourself to the teaching of the Word of God. One of such ways is by listening to messages that are consistent with the Word of God. Interestingly, the Bible lets us know that faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Romans 10:17 says, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”

Another way you can receive good teaching is by reading books that are consistent with the Word of God. The Bible shows us that the Apostle Paul was a man who applied himself to teaching from reading books. This is made obvious to us by the emphasis he made when sending for the books to be brought to him in 2 Timothy 4:13(GNB), “When you come, bring my coat that I left in Troas with Carpus; bring the books too, and especially the ones made of parchment.”

Finally, 1 Timothy 4:6(GNB) says, “If you give these instructions to the believers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, as you feed yourself spiritually on the words of faith and of the true teaching which you have followed.” Therefore, I encourage you to feed yourself spiritually and also teach others these same things you are learning from this devotional teachings as a good servant of Jesus Christ.

Prayer.
Dear Father, open the eyes of my spiritual understanding so that I may be able to discover the wonderful truths from your Word.

Deuteronomy 6:6-9, Deuteronomy 17:18-20, Matthew 13:51-52.
