Day 338: Prayer for the saints to set aside time daily to acquire a solid knowledge of the New Testament ministry

Pray that the saints would set aside time daily to acquire a solid knowledge of the New Testament ministry by diving into the Recovery Version with footnotes and the Life-study messages (Acts 17:11; 1 Tim. 4:6; 2 Tim. 3:14-17).

Acts 17:11—Now these people were more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.

1 Tim. 4:6—If you lay these things before the brothers, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, being nourished with the words of the faith and of the good teaching which you have closely followed.

2 Tim. 3:14-17—But you, continue in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from which ones you have learned them and that from a babe you have known the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through the faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, fully equipped for every good work.
