Good
Morning!
It
is so important for us to be reading our Bibles and finding out what The Word
of God is saying to us today! It is not enough to read or hear what
someone else is saying that the Bible "says". I firmly believe
that we should "listen" to anointed teachers and preachers, but I
also believe that God's Word becomes more real to us when we read
it for ourselves! So, read what others have to say...listen
to what they have to say.....but, don't neglect reading the
"scriptures" personally!
I
encourage you to start with the book of Proverbs...there are 31 chapters (one
for each day of the month). So, think about what day it is...for example,
today is the 18th, so read Proverbs chapter 18. If it is the
4th day of the month, read the 4th chapter of Proverbs....see how simple
it is to get into reading The Word?
This
gets you started, but then read all of the "reference scriptures"
that you see in that chapter, and those reference scriptures will give
you some more reference scriptures and before you know it, you are taking in
the whole counsel of God!
The
book of Proverbs contains the "wisdom" of God that will help you
deal with every situation that you are confronted with. Someone
said, "An apple a day will keep the doctor away".....I like to say
"A proverb a day will keep the devil away"!
Have
a Blessed Day!! (Keep
it Simple!) In His Love,
Luanne
