Ultimately, the goal of personal Bible study is a transformed life and a deep and abiding relationship with Jesus Christ, by K. Arthur. Note. The Word of God is a lamp and guide for the believer in Christ. The Word encourages us to walk in purity of heart and of life. Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that need us not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth. 2 Timothy 2 verse 15 KJVY. Because it does not only come to probe our hearts, to expose all that is contrary to God in them, but also to free us from bondage. The Word doesn't only just clean, it fills and adds more to us. By His Word, God creates, guides, directs His children, He makes faith to grow in us. When we hold on to the Word of God and constantly meditate on it, we can be sure that we are in God's will and can always arrive at our desired destination. If we want our new year to be a success, if we want to get into all that the Lord has in store for us this year, let us abide in the Word, let us appeal the Holy Spirit to rewrite it in our hearts constantly. Let us be attentive to what God is telling us moment by moment. There is no good success possible without the successful adherence to the Word. Joshua 1 verse 8. Everything in life that is not founded on it is bound to collapse. Over time, including our very existence. Hebrews 1 verse 3. Illustration. On a warm summer evening in 1907, Managing Director of White Star Line, Bruce Ismay, and Senior Partner and Chairman of the Shikert Harland & Wolf, Lord Keary, conspired to build three of the most luxurious ships ever to be created by man, the Olympic, Titanic, and Gigantic, later renamed Britannic, which would be ready 1911, 1912, and 1913 respectively. Work began in December 1907 on the first of the three mammoth ships to be constructed, the Olympic. In order to accommodate the size of the Olympic and Titanic, the largest gantry ever constructed was built so that workers could access all parts of the ship. Construction on the Titanic began on March 31st, 1909. At the peak of construction, Harland and Wolf Shipyard employed approximately 14,000 men to build the enormous ship. It took over one year to fully frame the Titanic. Large steel plates were then riveted to the frame. It took more than three million rivets to hold the steel in place. In October 1910, the shell plating on the Titanic was complete. The Titanic was claimed to be virtually unsinkable, not even by God, due to its watertight construction. On April 2nd, 1912, Titanic set sailing, and on April 14th, 1912, it hit a North Atlantic iceberg and was eventually destroyed. Reflection 1. Upon what foundation are you building your life? 2.
