Read the Word

Reading the Bible every day has been a habit of mine for years. I look forward to each morning, midday, and evening. Whether it’s one verse or many, you’ll be blessed when you do. I can’t grow with the Lord apart from His Word.

What do I do?

  1. I read a chapter of Proverbs in the morning that correspond with the day – Today was Proverbs 23
  2. I read 5 chapters of Psalms in the morning. Start with the day and add 30 5x – Today was Psalm 23, 53, 83, 113, and 143
  3. Around midday, I read 3 chapters of the OT – Today will be Jeremiah 23-25
  4. In the evening, I read a chapter of the NT – Today will be Hebrew 9

TIPS

  • Pray before and after, asking God to reveal His truth and put it into practice.
    -Spend a few minutes meditating on some verses that stuck out.
    -Cut out the distractions (phone, TV, get alone, etc.)
    -Write down a key verse from all your reading you want to memorize.
    -Talk about that one verse with multiple people that day
    -Read it out loud at times – this will really boost your reading time.
