We are delighted to hear that you have found relief and have begun your Bible study journey with the book of Romans. It is wonderful that you acknowledged the name of Jesus, as it is only through His name that we have access to God and salvation. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB: "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Romans is an excellent choice, as it presents the core of the Christian faith and the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. It will help you understand the essence of the gospel and the profound love of God. As you study, may we suggest that you also consider reading the Gospel of John? This book provides a deep insight into the life, ministry, and teachings of Jesus Christ. It is a great complement to Romans, as it reveals the person of Jesus and His divine nature.
In John 20:31 WEB, it is written: "But these are written, that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, thanking You for the relief and comfort that our dear brother/sister has experienced. We ask for Your continued guidance as they delve into Your Word, starting with the book of Romans. Open their understanding and pour out Your Spirit, that they may grasp the depth of Your love and the truth of the gospel.
Lord, we also pray for their continued study, that they may be led to the Gospel of John, to know Jesus more intimately. Strengthen their faith and help them to apply Your Word to their life. May they grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To You be glory both now and forever. Amen.
Continue to study God's Word diligently, and may God richly bless you as you grow in your faith.
