This was our September Verse of the Month:

Verse of the Month: “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” — 2 Timothy 2:15

Paul describes the Christian as a workman. Someone called to labor diligently in the Word of God. This verse is not written to only full-time ministry workers; it is written to every believer. God expects His people to handle Scripture with care, accuracy, and devotion. A faithful worker in God’s kingdom is one who takes the Word seriously.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God…”
The word study means to give earnest effort, to be diligent, and to make it a priority. This is not casual reading or occasional interest. Rather, it is intentional pursuit. We study the Word because we desire God’s approval; not the approval of people, not the praise of others, but the smile of God Himself. A believer who takes Scripture seriously honors the God who gave it.

“…a workman that needeth not to be ashamed…”
Shame comes when a worker is unprepared, careless, or negligent. A Christian who neglects the Word becomes spiritually weak, easily deceived, and vulnerable to error. But a diligent student of Scripture stands with confidence, not because of personal ability, but because they are grounded in truth. A workman who knows the Word does not shrink back in confusion or compromise.

“…rightly dividing the word of truth.”
To “rightly divide” means to cut straight and to handle the Word accurately, carefully, and faithfully. This requires: reading Scripture in context; understanding what God actually said; applying truth correctly; and refusing to twist Scripture to fit our preferences.

Ask yourself:
- Am I approaching God’s Word with diligence or with convenience?
- Would God call me a faithful workman, or have I allowed neglect to weaken my walk?
- Where do I need to grow in rightly understanding and applying Scripture?
- What specific step can I take this month to deepen my study of the Word?

A diligent workman is not defined by talent, but by faithfulness. This is how we “Work Till Jesus Comes:” by handling God’s Word with reverence, accuracy, and wholehearted devotion. Rightly dividing the Word protects us from false teaching, strengthens our convictions, and equips us to help others grow.

Take a few minutes to really reflect on God's Word. October's verse of the month devotion will be posted in a few days.

Verse of the Month: “Then saith he unto his disciples, the harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” — Matthew 9:37-38

Jesus lifts the eyes of His disciples and shows them the spiritual reality around them: a ready to be reached, yet lacking laborers willing to go. The problem is not the harvest, but is the shortage of workers.

“The harvest truly is plenteous…”
Jesus is not speaking of crops, but of souls. Everywhere we look in our neighborhoods, workplaces, schools, and communities people are searching for hope, truth, and meaning. The spiritual need is great and the opportunities are abundant. The fields are not barren; they are overflowing.

“…but the labourers are few.”
This is the burden of Christ’s heart. There are many spectators, many consumers, many and who enjoy the blessings of ministry. However, there are few who step into the work, few who pray, few who witness, few who serve, and few who sacrifice. The shortage is not in the harvest, but in the willingness of God’s people to labor.

“Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest”
Before Jesus commands us to go, He commands us to pray. Prayer aligns our hearts with God’s heart. Prayer awakens compassion, breaks selfishness, and moves us from comfort to commitment. When we pray for laborers, God often begins by stirring us.

“…that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.”
The harvest belongs to God. The workers are called by God. The results are produced by God. Our responsibility is to be available, obedient, and faithful. God is still calling laborers. These laborers are men and women willing to step into the fields with courage, compassion, and conviction.

Ask yourself:
- Am I viewing the world around me as a harvest field or simply as a place to live my life?
- Where is God calling me to labor more intentionally for souls?
- Have I been praying for laborers and am I willing to be one?
- Who in my life needs the gospel, encouragement, or spiritual help from me this month?

The harvest is still plenteous, and the need is still great. This is how we “Work Till Jesus Comes:” by seeing what Jesus sees, praying as Jesus commands, and stepping into the harvest as faithful laborers for the Lord.
