Welcome to Empowered Bible Studies

Bible study is essential to our Christian walk. As we study God's Word, our personal relationship with God grows deeper and deeper. It empowers us to live for the Lord in every aspect of our lives. This is what has inspired me to do an online Bible study.

Many years ago my husband introduced me to a commentary on the book of Colossians and I was so blessed as the Scripture came to life before my very eyes. Since that day we have developed an extensive library and enjoy studying God's Word.

I have prepared some Bible studies that I would like to share with you. My prayer is that they will bless you as much as they have blessed me in preparing them. I pray your life is touched and that it would inspire you to live every moment of every day for Christ.

Get Out of God's Way!

The essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He wants to do through us. ~ AW Tozer


As I read this quote, I thought about Lecrae's song 'Background', just look at a part of the lyrics: 'I could play the background cause I know sometimes I get in the way. So won't you take the lead. I know I'm safest when I'm in Your will and trust Your word. And I know I'm dangerous when I trust myself, my vision blurred. And I ain't got no time to play foolish games. Got plenty aims, but do they really glorify your name?'

It is hard sometimes to relinquish control, but we really need to place our trust in God, surrendering control of our lives into the hands of our loving Lord, allowing Him to lead us according to His plan for our lives.
(If you are interested in hearing Lecrae's song, it is available at iTunes - type 'Background Lecrae' in the search field)
