Explain how Bible study, fellowship, and prayer can be called different forms of spiritual communication.
-
It helps us grow in different aspects of our walk with the Lord. When we pray, it is having a conversation with God and being mindful of what our life looks like and centering ourselves around Him. Reading scripture is learning more about the character of God and therefore we can learn more how Jesus walked, how we can model our lives after Him, and our assurance of salvation. Fellowship is putting into practice everything we know and helping others come to know Him
-
Bible study is learning about being in communion with God as we mediatate on Gods word in study and in prayer this is how God speaks to us.
Fellowship is how we can hold each other accountable to the word of God with other believers to learn to be more of Christlikness which is the character of Christ as well as to grow closer to Him through our relationships with other believers. We are to break bread and do it with others.
Prayer is simply talking to God. Also we must learn to be still and have a quiet moment with Abba Father and let Him talk to us. Prayer is our way to express how we adore Him, love Him, with thanksgiving and blessing He gives us through His Grace and Mercy.

Bible study is the practice of seeking wisdom by reading God’s word. It is a way to deepen our understanding of His teachings and apply them to our lives. Fellowship, on the other hand, is the act of connecting with other believers of Christ. It is a way to build relationships, encourage one another, and grow together in faith. Lastly, prayer is a powerful means of communication with God. It allows us to express our thoughts, desires, and concerns to Him, and seek His guidance and intervention.

All three of these forms of communication are part of our growth as Christians. They depend on each other for fellowship with God through Jesus Christ. From the beginning of his journey to the cross, Jesus modelled all three of these aspects of growth and relationships. We know that he was an avid learner and teacher of the Scriptures. He is found in fellowship and discussions with others from an early age. We learn of his times when he would set aside time for his fellowship with his Father through an active prayer life. One of the first things he does at the start of his ministry is to gather others around him as his students and disciples with whom he could discuss his teachings.

They all are forms of communication with God
