Through meditation on the Word, we enhance spiritual growth and prepare ourselves to help guide and ____ others in Scriptural truths.

• A. Instruct
• B. Humiliate
• C. Ignore
• D. Bind

Answer: (A)

The main idea is that meditating on the Word fosters growth in understanding and equips you to lead others by teaching them Scriptural truths. When you’ve deepened your grasp of Scripture, your natural work as a Spirit-led leader is to guide others through instruction—helping them understand and apply God’s Word in their lives. Instruct captures that constructive, educative role of leadership, communicating truth with clarity and humility. The other options don’t fit the aim of shepherding people toward truth: to humiliate would harm trust and growth; to ignore would neglect the duty to guide; to bind would imply coercion rather than teaching. So, instruct is the appropriate completion.
