The Bible contains guidance that can be applied to one's own growth. One's perspective on life and one's attitude toward it both shift as a result. A new way of life is guaranteed when you study the Bible! According to God, the Scriptures are useful for a variety of purposes, including teaching, reproof, correction, and training. Teaching is demonstrating what is appropriate, demonstrating what is true, and setting the norm for others to follow, convicting us of our sin by reproof, which is pointing us what is wrong. That's the way to get things right. Training is the means through which one can continue to live in accordance with God's will.

Put an end to aimlessly wandering through existence! No dead ends! How many of us have actually run into a brick wall? Feeling pinned in? Looking to God, we don't have to feel that way at all.

James 1:22-25 Inadequate to listen to, read, or study. God asks us to put into practice what we have discovered or been told. If we do not respond to what the Bible teaches us, the Word of God will not improve our lives.

And we have a responsibility to acknowledge that he is guiding us toward a more enlightened way of being. How many of us waste time arguing, disputing, playing tug-of-war, or postponing with God? How many of us spend time playing tug-of-war with God? So, tell me, what exactly are your plans? How do you intend to put the information you've learned to use?
