Devote Time For Study!
"For Ezra had devoted himself to the
study and observance of the Law of the Lord."
Ezra 7: 10
If you’re having trouble getting into a Bible study
routine,
here are some suggestions: Keep an open Bible on the
kitchen table. Write down a new verse every morning
on your calendar.
Download an audible edition of the Bible and listen
while
you walk, exercise, or drive to work. Join a Bible study
group.
Find some Scripture song albums that put God’s Word
to
music and listen until you know some of the songs by
heart.
Purchase a wide-margin Bible and a set of colored pens
so
you make notes and drawings on the pages. Offer to teach
a children’s class at your church, which will force you
to
study and prepare each
week.
Let a Bible verse be the last thing you see before turning off
the
light at night. Enroll in a good online Bible study or take a
Bible
correspondence course. Find a new verse to post on
social
media each day.
Our faith is strengthened as we read and study God’s
Word,
and if you’re determined to begin that habit—you can do
it!
"Ultimately, the goal of personal Bible study is
a transformed life and a deep and
abiding
relationship with Jesus Christ."
Kay Arthur
