Prayer, Bible Study, and Memorize Scripture

Well since I did my post this morning I had to cut it a little short because we had church, but I will talk about that when I post tonight. After evangelizing I cooked dinner for the room. I made a garlic tomato basil chicken with salad. Then we went off for more training. We learned about the importance of prayer and why we need to pray. First was to follow Jesus' example like in Mark 1:25 and Matthew 6:9-13. To also be obedient to His commands like in I Thessalonians 5:16-18 and Ephesians 6:18-20. To worship God like in Psalm 34:1-3 and Hebrews 12:28. God acts when we pray, read Matthew 7:7 and *John 15:7. Prayer is extremely important and there is so much we can get from it. Next we learned about the real importance of studying the Bible, Why? It is essentially our link to God. It is one mode in which God reveals Himself. It cultivates our relationship with Him. The goal of the Christian walk is to know Him and the only way to do that is get in the word. Memorizing scripture is just as important. It will help you transform into the image of Christ, it will help you triumph over sin, it gives you comfort and counsel, it helps you with your witness, It's a form of worship, and it reminds us more about the importance of the Gospel. So every week we have 3 verses we have to memorize. Which is awesome! They are 2 Corinthians 3:18, Galations 2:20, and John 14:21. So wish me luck and keep praying.

Serving Him,

Daniel
