Is their anything more important than prayer and Bible study?
Posted by Pastor Kurt | Filed under My Faith, Randomness
This last Wednesday during our prayer and Bible study it dawned on me that this is the most important duty of a Christian. People get so caught up in doing good deeds that they neglect the most important thing. Some people will do good deeds to cover up their poor or non-existent relationship with God. All the while they feel good for doing good, but neglected the Lord. Jesus talked about this in Matthew 7
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Matthew 7:21-23
The bottom line is prayer is talking to God and Bible study is God talking to the Christian, and if there is no communication, there is no relationship! All all the good deeds in the world cant make up for that!
