You got a Bible…try this!

You got a Bible…try this!

 

When you first set out on this new adventure of reading your Bible every day, you may have days where you don’t seem to get much out of it. When that happens…read again tomorrow…and the next day…and the next.

Not every day is going to be an amazing WOW MOMENT. Somedays it may feel like you’re just going through the motions. However, don’t give up. The gold is there, we just have to keep digging.

If you’re just not feeling it, here are a few things to try:

1-Create a space where you meet with Jesus every day. It could be a particular chair or room or porch. Think of it as sacred space where you want to listen to Him.

2-Read the same passage again out of a different translation.

3-Write down the one verse that really stood out to you. Think about it. Why did it pop off the page? What is God trying to say to you?

4-Write out a prayer of obedience. What are you going to do with what you learned.

Remember, the point of the Bible is not just more information, it’s TRANSFORMATION!

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17 NIV)
