Carefully read the following passage:Psalm 141:1-4 (NIV)
A psalm of David. v. 1 O LORD, I call to you; come quickly to me. Hear my voice when I call to you. v. 2 May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice. v. 3 Set a guard over my mouth, O LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips. v. 4 Let not my heart be drawn to what is evil, to take part in wicked deeds with men who are evildoers; let me not eat of their delicacies. #2—Investigate it!
#3—Write it!
On your WordStudy
Sheet, tell in your own words what you think each verse means. Use the information you gathered above to guide you as you think through each verse. Descibe any new understanding of the story you get from learning the background information.
#4—Apply it!
Now that you have an idea what the verses are saying, how could they apply to you? On your WordStudy Sheet write what you think each verse could mean in your life. Is there something you should do? Or something you need to change? Get "up-close-and-personal" as you think about it! #5—Pray!
Ask God to help you do the things you learned about in today's study. Be specific! When we pray specifically, God answers specifically!
#6—Share it!
Share your study with your parents or your teacher
and get their feedback on your conclusions.Scripture taken from the HOLY BIBLE, NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION®. Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 International Bible Society. Used by permission of Zondervan. All rights reserved. |
