All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

(2 Timothy 3:16-17)

In our walk with Christ, there are sometimes seasons where we don’t feel close to God. We may feel as though we are spiritually dry or even lifeless. When this occurs, there is usually a common thread - a lack of sincere and devoted time in the Scriptures. 

There’s a vast difference between a quick skim through the Scriptures and a commitment to read and consider what God’s Word says. It’s certainly true that any Bible reading is better than no Bible reading, but if you would like to see real fruit borne out in your heart and mind, I would encourage you to take dedicated time each day to slowly walk through the Word and examine yourself up against what the Lord calls us to.

We have a yearly Bible reading plan that can help you in this, but if that’s too much for you then I would encourage you to start by reading one chapter a day and genuinely thinking through it.

God WILL bless your efforts, because His Word never returns void.
