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.

Motivation to Live Godly Lives

Have you really thought about how much God loves you?  Eight times in Peter's two epistles Peter reminds us of God's love for us: 1 Peter 2:11; 4:12; 2 Peter 1:7, 3:1, 8, 14-15, 17.

In 1 Peter 2:11 the word 'Beloved' is from the Greek word Ἀγαπητοί, Agapetoi, used of God's divine love.  Peter is reminding us that we are dearly loved-ones of God!  Christ loved us so much that He was willing to suffer death on the Cross so that we could live with Him for all eternity.  Think about that and how much God loves you. Our lives should reflect our love for God! 
Our love for Jesus Christ, the fact that he died on the Cross so that we could live with Him for eternity ought to be motivation enough for us to live godly lives in this godless world. Live as unto the Lord every second of the day and spread God's love to the world.
