“Until we mature enough to understand that God uses everything for good in our lives, we harbor resentment toward God over our appearance, background, unanswered prayers, past hurts, and other things we would change if we were God. People often blame God for hurts caused by others. This creates what William Backus calls “your hidden rift with God.”

“El plan Daniel sea distinto a otros métodos. Está construido sobre el poder de Dios para ayudarte a cambiar, no solamente sobre tu propia fuerza de voluntad. Seamos sinceros. La fuerza de voluntad funciona durante unas semanas, o quizá durante un mes o dos como mucho. Por eso los propósitos de Año Nuevo nunca duran. Intentar cambiar solo con la fuerza de voluntad es agotador. Puedes mantenerlo un tiempo, pero se siente artificial y estresante obligarte a ser distinto simplemente con la fuerza de voluntad.”

“The ultimate goal of dynamic Bible study is application, not just interpretation. We do not want to settle for understanding alone; we want to apply the biblical principles to our daily living. Dwight L. Moody, a great evangelist and Christian educator of the late nineteenth century, used to say, “The Bible was not given to increase our knowledge, but to change our lives.” It was given to change our character and bring it more into conformity with Jesus Christ. All of our efforts in Bible study are valueless if in the final analysis we do not change and become more like Jesus. We must “not merely listen to the word,” but we are to “do what it says” (James 1:22).”
