MEMORISE: A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver.
Proverbs 25:11
READ: Acts 8:27-31
- And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,
- Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet.
- Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot.
- And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?
- And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.
MESSAGE:
Teaching is a gift of the Holy Spirit, who is the greatest teacher. If you have a problem understanding anything you have been taught by your earthly teachers in school or church, just say a prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to explain it to you and give you a better understanding. When you continue asking sincerely, your mind will gradually open up, and you will begin to understand the things that were previously difficult to understand. This was my experience when the Holy Spirit taught me how to go about my PhD thesis in just five hours after I had struggled with it for 18 months!
Perhaps you are also called into the ministry of teaching; the Holy Spirit wants to partner with you so that you can bring light to the dark areas that are confusing people in the world today. However, you must take your relationship with Him seriously, study the Bible daily, and read widely on different things, events, theories, and concepts.
My dear child, for you to be an effective teacher, you must be more knowledgeable than your learners so that you can easily understand and interpret things and bring clarity where there is confusion.
KEY POINT:
God wants to partner with you to bring understanding to those who are confused in the world.
