2. The Benefits of Asking Thoughtful
Questions:
Every thought provoking question challenges and stretches your mind
and releases your capacity to reason. Mt 21:25
A good question demands an answer and carries unlimited possibilities.
Lk 11:10
Asking questions improves your life and helps your progress in thought
and in knowledge
Asking Qs banishes your confusion, fosters creativity and aids your
memory, helping you discover new ideas and information that can aid
and save humanity
If you don’t develop a questioning mind, you will fall victim to a lie and
to false claims…
3. Five very crucial questions from the
Scriptures:
“Did God really say..?” Gen 3:1 – It is always Satan’s joy and
intent to twist the truth out of its original context.
“Where are you..?” Gen 3:9 – Qs of self evaluation & self
examination.
“Will not the judge of the whole earth do right..?” Gen 18:25 –
The justice system of God/In life you reap what you sow.
“What do I still lack..?” Mt 19:20 – The Qs of inquisition, thirst
for wisdom and divine intelligence.
“If a man die, shall he live again..?” Job 14:14 – The end of
man. The Qs of final closure.
4. The 5 crucial questions everyone should
ask themselves – Dr. Myles Munroe.
“Who am I ?” – The Qs of your personal identity.
“Where am I from ?” – The Qs of source.
“Where am I going ?” – The Qs of destination or destiny.
“Where am I in the journey from my beginning to my end ?” – The
Qs of location.
“How much time do I have left before its all over ?” – The Qs of
finality.
5. Application of the teaching:
To grow and develop as a Christian, you must ask God your own
peculiar questions.
Case Studies: Abraham (Gen 15:7-9) & Moses (Exo 3:13-15).
The Bible not only requires us to ask questions, it calls us to seek
for answers as well – Pro 2:1-7.
There are almost four thousand questions in the Scriptures.
Thus, continually asking and seeking are the ways and means to
know God and His heart for our lives and destinies.
6. The most important question of all time!
• “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation..?”
Heb 2:3
Why are you still running away from God..?
How do you think your life would pan out if you choose to live it
apart from God and apart from His ways..?
Where would your end be after this life if you escape so great a
salvation..?
