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.

Desiring God's Word

As we saw in our last post, Peter exhorts us to feed on wholesome spiritual food that produces growth.


Let's look at 1 Peter 2:2 "as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby". The word "desire" here is in the Aorist Imperative - meaning it is a command. We are to crave one thing - God's word. Peter exhorts us to be as eager for the nourishment of the Word as babies are for milk. He did not say we are to act like babes, but are to be like babes in their desire or craving for milk. We should desire God's word that produces growth - we should be growing spiritually every day.

Too many believers crave the Word here and there, sporadically. Growth can come only as we live in the Word day by day. God's word empowers us to live for The Lord in every aspect of our lives.
