It is always best to have taken some time to plan out what you are going to talk about ahead of time (Not just a few minutes, but at least a few hours ago. A day in advanced is best, because it gives you time to relax between preparation and delivery of your devotional thought.) You have your Bible study topic outlined. Begin with prayer. Not only will this calm you down, but it also invites God to be with everyone as they take a look at His Written Word. Then, dive in. Once you begin your Bible study, you will find that the hard part is over. Because you have gotten the group started and they aren't just sitting there waiting on you to open the study session, you will notice that the group may in fact move without your help. That doesn't mean that you can sit back and relax for the rest of the time. You need to monitor the flow of the study and put in comments that will "guide" the conversation where you want it to go. At the end of the Bible study, sum up everything that you (as a group) have discussed and point out a few key things that you wanted to get across to those in the group.
