Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV
Good Morning Men of God,
Have you ever had a boss or supervisor that was unqualified to lead you? How did you feel when they gave you instructions? Whether you followed their lead or not, you probably felt a little uneasy about their ability to lead you. In our text today Paul is instructing Timothy to study to show himself approved. In other words, study to show your qualifications to give instructions /lead the people I am sending you to on my behalf. The clear fact is that people have an easier time following you when they have confidence in your qualifications. This thought should drive us into our Bible every day. It should propel us into morning worship. It demands that we study to show ourselves approved as fathers and husbands.Our families will follow our lead to seek the Lord a lot better when they see us seeking. Our wives will submit a lot easier when they know we are fervently pursuing God for guidance. Set the example for your families the way Jesus Christ set the example for all of us.
Love you Guys,
PW
