Crying out for wisdom (Prov 2:1-5) and disciplined study (2 Tim 2:15) are a powerful combo. We also know the Scriptures are able to make us wise for salvation. It seems Daniel and the three (3) boys studied all the literature and language of the Chaldeans, and that Jesus was very disciplined and decided "to be about (His) father's Business" and "be in (His) Father's House" -- they were amazed at His understanding and His answers.
David said "I have more understanding than my instructors because I forget not Your Commandments" (Ps 119). You will need "power from on high" (Acts 1:8) to be able to "give an answer for the hope within you" (Peter). You will certainly need it to proclaim the truth and reclaim Christian Academics & Apologetics to the height it once was, even if not mainstream, the hungry will seek it out.
May God "fill" all our young, believing, students "with the Knowledge of His will," (Col 1:9), make them "The Head and Not the Tail" (Deut 28), and give them direction in life, call them and help them walk worthy of that calling. Help them one step after another, and protect them from the evil one, (Matt 6:13, John 17:15). May those of us that have graduated never stop studying and learning, in Jesus' name.
