Bible Reference:
1 Timothy 4:6-11
A Good Servant of Jesus Christ
6 If you instruct the
brethren in these things, you will be a good minister of Jesus Christ,
nourished in the words of faith and of the good doctrine which you have
carefully followed. 7 But reject profane and old wives’ fables,
and exercise yourself toward godliness. 8 For bodily exercise
profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of
the life that now is and of that which is to come. 9 This is
a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance. 10 For to this end
we both labor and suffer reproach,[a] because we trust in
the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who
believe. 11 These things command and teach.

you’re just joining in, no worries, you can find previous posts here.
Join in anytime. I am enjoying seeking first the kingdom of God and his
righteousness just by studying the reasons why God’s word is pertinent in our
lives. According to yesterday’s study we learned that sanctification through
God’s word is the “state of proper functioning.” To function properly according
to God’s design we need the word of God, amen!
