Day 6: Consulting Reliable Resources

Scripture: Acts 8:30-31 - "So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, 'Do you understand what you are reading?' And he said, 'How can I, unless someone guides me?'"

Reflection:

It is wise to consult reliable resources, such as commentaries and study Bibles, to deepen our understanding of Scripture. We should not be afraid to ask for help from those who are more knowledgeable than us. Consulting reliable resources helps us to gain a more accurate and nuanced understanding of God's Word, benefiting from the insights and expertise of others.

Consulting reliable resources involves seeking out trusted commentaries, study Bibles, and other scholarly works. It means looking for authors and teachers who are known for their biblical scholarship and their commitment to the truth of God's Word. It means approaching these resources with discernment, evaluating their insights in light of Scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

As we consult reliable resources, we are reminded of the importance of community in Bible study. We see how the insights and expertise of others can enrich our understanding and deepen our faith. We appreciate the value of learning from those who have gone before us, benefiting from their wisdom and experience.

Prayer: Lord, lead us to reliable resources that can help us to understand your Word. Connect us with wise and knowledgeable teachers who can guide us in the path of truth. Amen.
