💁🏻 Concept: Exegesis
Exegesis is the process of carefully interpreting a passage of Scripture to understand its original meaning. It seeks to discover what the text meant to its first readers, using context, language, and culture. This is different from eisegesis, which reads one’s own ideas into the text. A good exegete honors God by letting the Bible speak for itself. True understanding leads to faithful living.

📖 Bible Readings: 2 Timothy 2:15
(Nehemiah 8:8; Luke 24:27; Acts 17:11; 2 Peter 1:20-21; Hebrews 4:12)

🙏🏼 Prayer:
Father God, thank You for the gift of Your Word. Help me to approach it with a heart ready to learn and a mind that seeks truth. Teach me to study the Bible carefully, not twisting its meaning but seeking to understand what You have truly said. Protect me from error, pride, and shallow interpretation. Give me the discipline to dig deep and the humility to submit to Your Word. May Your truth transform the way I live, love, and lead. Train me to be a faithful student of Your Scriptures. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
