When delving into the depths of the Bible, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. However, consistency is key if you desire a genuine connection with God and a better understanding of God’s will for your life. Make it a daily habit to read the Word upon waking up, immersing yourself in its teachings. Find a comfortable spot to create an intimate space to commune with God through His word. Remember, everyone has their preferences when studying scripture—what matters most is finding what works best for you while honoring the Lord.
Before Diving Into Your Bible Reading Time ~ Take A Moment To Pray And Ask God To Open Your Heart To God’s Truth!
Humbly come before God and confess any unconfessed sin. Seek forgiveness and purification, so your heart and mind can receive divine wisdom from the living Bible. Sometimes, focusing on smaller sections of scripture – perhaps just half a chapter or even a single paragraph – can improve your concentration and allow for deeper understanding. As you begin each reading session, fervently pray for guidance and a revelation about how the portion ahead will relate specifically to your needs at that moment. Trust that God’s words have transformative power; they hold answers tailored precisely for you. Additionally, utilizing resources like concordances can aid in unraveling specific topics or questions that may be weighing on your heart. Ultimately, I encourage you, above all else, to be consistent! The path towards spiritual growth lies not only in prayerful study but also in unwavering. ~ Bill Greguska

Why Read the Bible?
(This is from The Book I wrote)
Lord, we all need direction in life. When I go on a trip, I bring a map or GPS. My life is like a long journey; you help me navigate it through your word, the Bible. You have also brought mentors into my life who teach me right from wrong based on your word.
I have learned that reading and following the Bible are not optional but necessary. Relying on Scripture keeps me on the right road and warns me of detours. At times in the past when I have put my Bible down for a day or two, I’ve seen my life come slowly apart. To me, that’s no coincidence, and it’s no surprise. After all, you are the author, Lord, inspiring your writers. Thank you for that and for knowing I can be confident in your guidance.
Lord, help me diligently read your word daily, not as a mechanical habit or legalistic ritual, but to strengthen my relationship with you. Don’t allow me to get lazy or distracted by worldly things, as Satan would want me to do. Help me prayerfully apply truth from the word each day. I know the Bible can keep me from sin, and if I let it, sin will keep me from the Bible! Instead, help me get the wisdom and strength I need from your word to please you by doing what is right.
Reading and understanding the Bible involves lots and lots of interpretation. Not just in light of the world and culture around us, but about other parts of the Bible. ~ John Piper, American Reformed Baptist pastor, author, and founder of DesiringGod.org.

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
