LEARN EVERYDAY

Memorise:
The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way. .. Psalm 25:9

Read:
Acts 17:10-11

Message

Someone once said that the world is a school, and those who are wise go to school to take lessons everyday because there is always something to learn there. Proverbs 9:9 says that if you give instructions to a wise man he will become wiser. You must be open to learning from others because everyone has something to teach you, eve children. A teachable fellow is always willing and ready t learn. Mark 4:25 says;

    For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

Anyone who is willing to learn every day will have more understanding and wisdom. A teachable fellow is open t knowledge and is always willing to add other people's wisdom to his or her own. When you are teachable, you learn mainly through instructions, not by experience. For example, if you keep telling a boy not to put his hand in a fire and you constantly keep him away from hot objects, if the boy is not teachable, he will always want to run towards what you are trying to save him from. One day, he might eventually put his hand in the fire and get hurt. However, a teachable child will listen to instructions, obey them, and grow in wisdom. He or she will not have to experience the pain that comes from disobedience by nursing wounds that could have been avoided.

David was a very teachable fellow. Many times in the Bible, he prayed and asked God to teach him; He was always willing to learn. In Psalm 25:4, he asked God to teach him His paths. When you are open to learning about God's paths, you can never miss your way. In Psalm 119:26 and Psalm 119:33, he asked God to teach him His statutes so that he could keep them until his death. In Psalm 119:66, he wanted to learn good judgment and knowledge. Also, he asked God to teach him to do His will in Psalm 143:10. No wonder, up until today, David remains the most celebrated king that Israel ever had.

Today's Bible reading talks about some believers from Berea who were ready to learn. They received the word of God with all readiness of mind and searched the Scriptures daily. The Bereans were hungry for God's word and remained meek enough to search the Scriptures daily.

Beloved, be like the Berean Christians and be committed to learning every day.

Bible In One Year:
Philemon 1; Titus 1-3

Hymn:
I Need Thee Every Hour

Prayer Point:
Dear Lord, I am willing to learn of Youi daily. Please teach me so that I can become more like You.

King James Version

Acts 17:10-11

And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews. [11] These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
RCCG Hymn

I need Thee ev'ry hour

  1. I need Thee ev'ry hour
    Most gracious Lord;
    No tender voice like Thine
    Can peace afford.


    2. I need Thee, Oh, I need Thee;
    Ev'ry hour I need Thee!
    Oh, bless me now, my Saviour,
    I come to Thee!


  2. I need Thee every hour.
    Stay Thou near by;
    Temptations lose their power
    When Thou art nigh.

  3. I need Thee every hour
    In joy or pain;
    Come quickly and abide
    Or life is vain.

  4. I need Thee every hour
    Teach me Thy will;
    And Thy rich promises
    In me fulfill.

  5. I need Thee every hour,
    Most Holy one;
    Oh, make me Thine indeed,
    Thou blessed Son!
