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.

Lesson Learned

Remember the adversities and the lessons we have learned from them. My friend, It doesn't do us any good if we simply endure our trials, we must learn from them so that we can apply the lessons to our lives.


God told the Israelites to remember the forty years in the desert in Deuteronomy 8:2-3 "And you shall remember that the LORD your God led you all the way these forty years in the wilderness, to humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep His commandments or not. So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the LORD."

My friend, by bringing the adversity in the form of hunger in their lives during those forty years and supplying food, they learned that God supplies their needs. In order to profit from this lesson, they had to remember it. We, too, if we are to profit from the lessons God teaches us, we must remember them, we must allow them to sink deeply into our hearts so that each time another adversity comes we will remember how God widdled away the imperfections of our life to make us more like Him.

Trusting you Lord through the adversities of life.
