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.

Start your day with God

As our feet hit the floor each morning, we go into automatic pilot as we prepare ourselves in our daily routines for the day ahead of us. 
 
However, the question begs to be asked; 'How much time do we spend preparing ourselves spiritually?' Do we start our day in prayer thanking God for this day He has given us, asking Him to guide us according to His will and to give us strength to face the day no matter what circumstances come our way? Do we read God's word to help equip us for what the day brings? 
It is so tempting to sleep in until the very last minute getting all the rest you can before you have to face the day. However, I have found that the days I started my day off with the Lord were the days that I was able to have patience with those people that test us, I was able to see my circumstances through Christ's eyes instead of taking things personally. 

My friend, scripture tells us that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces that want to discourage us and bring us down. We need to equip ourselves every morning with the Armor of God to face each day. ~ Belt of Truth, Breastplate of Righteousness, Shoes of Peace, Shield of Faith, Helmet of Salvation, and the Sword of the Spirit - which is the word of God. Praying at all times! Ephesians 6:10-20
