1.3 “Discover, Share, Obey” Approach
-
Discover, Share, Obey is so easy and practical for anyone to apply. “Discover” is kind of an energizing word. It suggests a “pursuit,” “a quest” — coming to the Word completely open and with anticipation that something is going to happen. Meeting with God Himself. A blessing. “Share” is extending God’s blessing to others–an act of love and care. Honestly, I would say that “share” has the double blessing of allowing the Word to resonate beyond ourselves but also to resonate more deeply within us. “Obey” is intentionality. A conscious decision. Faith. Embracing God’s loving grace which continues to resonate and work within us. Of course, “Discover, Share, Obey” is a great way to engage with what the Holy Spirit is speaking to us through Scripture. It is devotional reading of Scripture, distinct from Bible study and careful exegesis (which can further nuance and deepen the act of “Discover”).

After trying the discover share obey approach I made some good observations.
I found that When I look at the Bible passage with simplicity in mind, it is often easy to find the truth.
I then take that simple truth and apply to my heart and then I ask the Lord to show me what to do with it.
I then ask the lord who can I share this Biblical truth with.
I then try to obey what the word says sometimes the change is immediate but sometimes it takes time.

I like how simple this approach works, it gives me time to think about the passage i’m reading and how i can turn it into action in my life.
I also like it that immediately after reading the Bible, the Holy Spirit inturn drops insight into the Word of God i just read.

After trying the Discover, Share, Obey approach a few times, what questions do you have, or what observations do you have about what works well with this approach?
Thank you for sharing this and it helps me grow deeper in the word of God.
We need to Discover what God really speaking to us and after that we are called to share, and as we share, and have knowledge and relation, because we love God , we must obey his word. not enough just to know the word of God, we must do the word of God if we are truly to love Him.
