“Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). • This section is designed for anyone who wants to: •learn more about God’s Word and the truth it holds •grow in your ability to read, interpret, and memorize Scripture •deepen your walk with the Lord by applying the Bible to your life

• “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:19-20). • Trusting Christ as Lord and Savior is more than a ticket to heaven. It places us on the road of following him. That’s why believers are called “Christ followers.” • The Bible also calls us disciples, which means “learners” and followers. Following Jesus is a lifelong journey of discipleship. • Have you ever been discipled? Many Christians would reply that they never have been. • Have you ever discipled anyone else? Even less Christians could answer yes to that question. • Jesus wants you to be his disciple and to disciple others. Intimidated? Don’t be. Discipling is simply “helping others follow Jesus… down the pathway of life” (Dever). The Christian life is a life of discipleship and discipling.

Fasting is a spiritual discipline that is taught in the Bible. Jesus expected His followers to fast, and He said that God rewards fasting. Fasting, according to the Bible, means to voluntarily reduce or eliminate your intake of food for a specific time and purpose. • "When you give up eating, don't put on a sad face like the hypocrites. They make their faces look sad to show people they are giving up eating. I tell you the truth, those hypocrites already have their full reward. So when you give up eating, comb your hair and wash your face. Then people will not know that you are giving up eating, but your Father, whom you cannot see, will see you. Your Father sees what is done in secret, and he will reward you." Matthew 6:16-18 (NCV) • Matthew 17: 21 “Nevertheless, this kind only goes out by prayer and fasting.”

Matthew 28:19-20

'Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”'

Matthew 6:16-18

' “And when you fast, don’t make it obvious, as the hypocrites do, for they try to look miserable and disheveled so people will admire them for their fasting. I tell you the truth, that is the only reward they will ever get. But when you fast, comb your hair and wash your face. Then no one will notice that you are fasting, except your Father, who knows what you do in private. And your Father, who sees everything, will reward you. '

Mark 9:29

'Jesus replied, “This kind can be cast out only by prayer. ” '
