1 Thessalonians 5:20-21, "Do not despise prophecies. Test all things; hold fast what is good." I have been asked, "How do I read the Bible"? My question is, "WHY do you read the Bible"? We have all seen the "read the Bible in a year" or "the complete study guide". We immediately treat it like any other book, to read it. I read the Bible from need. I need help and the Bible provides it every time. Then as I read the HOLY SPIRIT takes over and I begin to "hunger and thirst" for more. The words come alive! PRAYER - LORD, give me a discerning heart. Let me know what is in YOUR heart for me today. THOUGHT - I want to read the Bible to know who JESUS is. MEDITATION - I read the Bible because I need answers. REFLECTION - I am to "test" everything with GOD'S WORD, it will be my guide in life. IT'S NOT HOW, IT'S WHY?
May you discover the WHY, today.... Psalm 139: 23-24 Isaiah 43:1 GOD IS GOD!
