After His resurrection, Jesus opened the minds of His disciples that they may understand the scriptures. This was evident in the book of Acts, where the they were seen making speeches and convincing arguments which were bringing people to believe in the Lord. However before they could fit all the pieces of scripture together to harness that understanding, they needed to know the scriptures. I believe that the disciples like most of the Jews, made a significant amount of time to study the scriptures. The only way we can understand is when we know. Then through the power of His Holy Spirit, we will be able to ascertain what the Lord has in store for us through His word. May we seek to improve our study of scripture.
Lord, teach us to thirst for your word. Amen.
