How to Read The Bible

The Christian should approach each day’s reading as follows:

• PRAY before reading, asking God’s help in understanding His Word

• READ carefully the day’s Scripture passages

• MEDITATE upon the passages. Ask

• a. What is the main point of each passage?
• b. What does each passage say to me about God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit?
• c. What personal insights are revealed through the passage?

• d. What actions must I take in obedience to God’s revelation?

• PRAY again. Thank God for His goodness. Confess your sins. Pray for others. Praise and worship the Lord.

• GO FORTH to serve Him joyfully.

Have a blessed time with God’s Word.
