I will walk in your truth.—Ps. 86:11.

 

How can we strengthen our determination to go on walking in the truth? One way is to have as full a share as possible in teaching Bible truth to others. In this way you will keep a firm grip on our spiritual sword, which is “God’s word.” (Eph. 6:17) All of us can strive to improve our skills as teachers, “handling the word of the truth aright.” (2 Tim. 2:15) As we use the Bible to help others to buy truth and reject falsehoods, we embed God’s sayings in our own mind and heart. In this way, we strengthen our determination to go on walking in the truth. The truth is a precious gift from Jehovah. By means of this gift, we have our most prized possession, our intimate relationship with our heavenly Father. What he has taught us until now is only the beginning! God has promised us an eternity to add to the truth we have already bought. Therefore, cherish the truth like a fine pearl. Continue to “buy truth and never sell it.”—Prov. 23:23. w18.11 8 ¶2; 12 ¶15-17

This is more of a challenge at present, however with good preparation we can develop our informal witnessing skills and help our brothers and sisters (iron sharpens iron) to improve their skills in this regard.

Remember the skills we learn will be useful in the new world disciple making, what a priceless treasure! 💛

We walk in truth by reading and meditating on Gods Word daily. This allows us to have the tools to have a full share in sharing Bible truths by means of letter writing and phone witnessing. 
This also allows us to constantly have Gods Word in our hearts and on our minds so we will want to share with everyone we meet. 

 

I love the part from the RC that expressed how we are going to need to have the skills to teach the resurrected ones. We have an opportunity now to fine tune those skills. 

 

Have a good day!

Even though its not so easy during lockdown, we can prepare for more informal witnessing and help each other, as we do in JWTalk, to witness in other ways. Consider how valuable our skills will be in new world disciple making. 🙏
