study

Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV

I appreciate time this year, after the successful season two premiere of New Day LIVE! in March (listen to the episode here), to focus on Lent and to journey with Christ to the cross, reflecting on my own sin and being grateful for my Savior’s great sacrifice. Then Easter celebration and resurrection day came wherein we praised our Lord for renewed hearts, expressing joy over being raised with Christ from the dead of our sins.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
‭‭
Isaiah‬ ‭9:6‬ ‭KJV‬‬

This verse is one we normally lift during Christmas as we celebrate the birth of Christ and receive Him, yet again, into our hearts. He’s called Wonderful and Counselor, among other things, in this verse, but I’ve come to know our Savior as my “Wonderful Counselor” (as it reads in other versions like the ESV), in a new way right here in September.
