Holy Spirit Led Bible Study

Each week our Ministry has 2 Bible Studies over the weekend. They are held on Friday and Sunday evenings and all are welcome to attend. We open each study evening with prayer asking our Heavenly Father to guide us in understanding better those things She wishes to reveal, but that isn’t when Bible Study actually begins for me.

I prepare for Bible Study by having a personal Bible Study before hand. I pray to Father for guidance. I read the material we are covering and consider the deeper meanings of the scriptures. I read the questions that will be asked and meditate on the possible answers. And I write everything that Father places in my heart down to share with the rest of the attendees.

That isn’t to say that more doesn’t come to me in Bible Study. In fact, it does. My brothers and sisters share what Father has placed in their hearts also, which is usually different than (but never wrong) what I have. We all grow x the number of people in our group. But there is also something else that happens that isn’t planned….

Father grants additional Wisdom to us all by helping us make even more connections than we previously had made in preparation for the night. By this, I mean in addition to each others answers, She places even more insight into our hearts that we hadn’t considered or hadn’t seen. It is such a gift and almost indescribable except to say that it feels like your heart grows in the most wonderful way. Without Father guiding us, we would only have knowledge and understanding of the words within The Bible. But with Her, She provides the Wisdom that unlocks the deeper, hidden meanings we so desperately want and need to be in union with Her and Her son.

Proverbs 2
Wisdom's Worth
1 My son, if you accept my words
and store up my commands within you,
2 listening closely to wisdom
and directing your heart to understanding;
3 furthermore, if you call out to insight
and lift your voice to understanding,
4 if you seek it like silver
and search for it like hidden treasure,
5 then you will understand the fear of the LORD
and discover the knowledge of God.
