Women of Proverbs

Bible Study

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. ~ II Timothy 2:15 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. ~ Psalms 139: 23, 24

Dear Lady, ! I am very excited about this bible study! My hearts desire is that as you study Gods word and these different ladies mentioned in the book of Proverbs that you will grow in your understanding of Gods word and in knowledge and truth. I pray that each week that we examine Gods words together and review what we have learned through the week that we go grow closer together because of God and the inuence of His word in our life! I pray that you go home each week a better lady to your family for having spent time together in Gods word! ! Gods word is the most exciting book in the world! It is a living book. It is a great book about our Savior, about how to live, about the future, and has answers for each of lifes problems. I suggest you approach this study with a open heart, willing to accept anything God has for you! As you come to each lesson, pray and ask God to reveal Himself and areas you might need to improve. Already be ready to say Yes to God in whatever area God speaks to you! ! I know that as each of us read Gods word and learn that God is going to do great things in our life! Thank you for your participation in this Bible study into the different characteristics of the women in Proverbs and the life of Bible characters that exhibited those characteristics! ! The way this Bible study is designed is that on your own at home, or at work during your break you read the passages and answer the question, writing on the papers provided. When we come together for the Bible study we are going to review our answers. Feel free to speak up and tell how God has worked in your life through this study as we read together the papers. This will be a time of sharing and of learning together from each other. You will get much more out of this lesson if you do the lesson at home before coming to class. I realize there may be weeks you cant devote as much time as other weeks. Dont stress out over it. We are going to devote a minimum of 2 possibly 3 weeks to each lesson. The memory verse will be the text under the title. There will also be memory verse cards provided for your learning convenience. ! Invite a friend. If you have a friend who does not come to Jackson Park, invite them to do the Bible Study with you. Set up a time that you do this every week. If it grows into several ladies doing it with you that would be great! Remember Christ is being taught and ladies are learning more about the Bible. Remember to always apply what you have learned to your life! ! This is going to be exciting and fun and I am already encouraged by what God has done in my life as I prepared the lessons! I know God is going to use this in your life, if you allow Him to! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Serving Him, Patty Johnson
