Bible Study, Fellowship, and Prayer are our tools in communicating with God. When we dive into studying the word, it is nice to have someone else there to share what you have gotten out of the study, and you can share viewpoints. Starting with prayer and asking God to show you what He needs you to see.

Explain how Bible study, fellowship, and prayer can be called different forms of spiritual communication.
Bible study is learning God’s word and hearing from God directly. A supernatural spiritual communication.
Fellowship is sharing what you learned and then listening and thinking on other people’s hearing and learning from God through the Bible and letting that cause you to also grow and change as God directs you. Human communication with God also.
Prayer is communication where we talk with God directly. Supernatural level that God of all creation listens to us. -
Bible study, fellowship, and prayer are all vehicles for connecting further with both the Lord and your innate self. Bible study provides the detailed history, fellowship allows kinship and community, and prayer allows direct communication with the Lord himself.

Bible study, fellowship and prayer are different modalities of communication through which God to speaks to us and allows us to be spoken to by God.

Bible study is spiritual communication: God speaking through His Spirit inspired scripture to teach and correct (2 Tim.3:16-17); through it’s living power and discernment (Heb.4:12); which is then heard and understood — spiritually discerned — through the indwelling advocacy of the Holy Spirit (John 14:17,26 ; 1 Cor.2:14).
Prayer is the ultimate privilege: spiritual communication — a divine dialogue with the creator of the universe — speaking and listening. The psalmist wrote that God hears prayers and answers with “awesome deeds of righteousness” (Psalm 65:5). Jesus encourages us to always pray and not lose hope, and the Holy Spirit helps us to pray (Luke 18:1 ; Rom.8:26). Listening quietly is an indispensable part of this privileged spiritual communication dialogue — and God speaks to us through His Word, testifies with our spirit (Rom.8:16), and speaks to us in unmistakable, uniquely personal ways that are the hallmarks of experiencing — practicing — His presence.
Fellowship is spiritual communication: A God ordained, Messiah commissioned, Spirit-Empowered supernatural intentional community of individuals joyfully choosing to gather for corporate spiritual disciplines (Matt.28:18-20 ; Acts 2:44-45 ; Heb.10:25).
