How are you committed to grow in learning sound doctrine?

Day 2 – READ 2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17
Do you believe scripture is God’s actual words?
Have you had experience in how God’s Words have instructed, corrected, reproved (convicted), and trained you in righteousness?
Sharing your experiences is a huge part of discipleship. If you have not experienced God’s Word in this way spend more time being disciple and gain more wisdom in this area. Remember wisdom is knowledge with experience. To gain experience, you must apply the Word. If you have experienced these things, spend time writing them down today. Reflect through what God has done in you through His Word. Also remember that God will not stop using His Word for these things in your life. Just because you disciple others does not mean you will stop being conformed and renewed by God’s Word in your own walk.
I PROMISE YOU
Jesus told His disciples that He would be with them always. Notice that He makes this statement right after He charges them to go make disciples. He promises to not only be with you but He has given you the Holy Spirit to help you. If you are nervous about sharing God’s Word and training others in it, remember the Holy Spirit, God Himself, will give you the words to say (Luke 12:12).
Day 3 – READ 2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17
Are you ready to use God’s Word to do these things in another’s life? Why or why not?
DIG DEEPER
Read 1 Peter 2:2. God calls you to drink spiritual milk to grow in your salvation. Like a growing child, God wants you to move on from milk and eat meat. Read 1 Corinthians 3:2. Are you at a point where you still drink “milk” instead of eating “meat” in your spiritual growth? Think about this long and hard. One who disciples should be feeding the milk and eating the meat.
Day 4 READ 2 TIMOTHY 2:2
Are you a person who God would call faithful? Take some time to look at your life and focus in on how you are faithful. How are you faithful with your time, money, attitude, resources, speech, spiritual growth, and personal relationships?
Read 1 Corinthians 11:1
Are your living out your faith in a way that others should follow?
What are ways you are a good example? What are ways you are not a good example?
Read John 15:8
Are you shown as a disciple who bears fruit?
Do your actions and work give glory to God instead of yourself or man?
Day 5 – READ 2 TIMOTHY 2:2
Are you a faithful servant?
Are you ready to be a good steward of the responsibility of a life?
The word “entrust” is a powerful word. If you are entrusted with something, this This means that another trusts you to be faithful with what is theirs. This is exactly what God is doing with you. In bringing you someone to disciple, you must know that God is trusting you with one of His own. Are you ready to take on the responsibility of being faithful with God’s precious child?
