Bible study methods and the art of studying Scripture were taught by great professors and scholars. However, I had a hard time combining what the Holy Spirit said in the Bible with what He is saying in the present through spiritual gifts and in my personal time spent with Him. Nonetheless I knew He was and is my \u201cpresent\u201d companion and comforter and that He enjoys speaking to His kids.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through ongoing study and revelation, I learned that the wonderful Holy Spirit is still speaking through Scripture! The great chasm can be bridged. Not only has God spoken as recorded in Scripture, but He is still speaking, continuing to reveal Himself to us through the Bible and present circumstances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Romans 10:17 (ESV) says, \u201c<em>So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.<\/em>\u201d Many people tend to think the \u201cword\u201d refers only to the gospel, but the term also refers to prophecy that aligns with the written Word of God. The Greek term for \u201cword\u201d comes from the term \u201crhema,\u201d which is the living, spoken word connected to prophecy throughout the New Testament. It includes the written word of the past, but also the Spirit-empowered spoken word of the present. Again, what He is saying to us personally, to our churches and movements will not contradict what He has said in the Bible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Simple Question<\/strong><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wonderful Holy Spirit must be included in our study of Scripture. He is the best teacher (Nehemiah 9:20; John 14:26; 1 John 2:27). Fellowshipping with Him enhances our understanding of the Bible, increasing our faith as we continue growing in friendship and community with Him and with one another.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you read the Bible, I encourage you to ask the Holy Spirit directly, \u201cWhat are you showing me through this Scripture?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then wait on Him, writing down what He says to you. He longs to communicate with you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Jared-Laskey-01.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12410\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jared Laskey, an Open Bible credentialed minister with an M.
