Psalm 25:4-5: Show me Your ways, O LORD; teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; on You I wait all the day.
· Show me Your ways: Revelation, each time we open the scripture we need to be looking for Jesus. All inductive type Bible study programs (IBS) call this the observation stage
· In the Word: daily, systematically, and come hungry, not doubting.
· Earnest seeking Matthew 6:33: But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

o Word is like manna, you cannot live off yesterday’s manna.
