2 Peter 3:14-18
For the last several months, our Pastor has been leading us through the books of Peter. There have been several Wednesday’s that I have shared with you some of that scripture. We finally finished up the books this past Sunday. I really enjoyed going through the books and seeing what Peter had to say. While all of it is important, I am still reading these last scriptures over and over.
Some men (and women), like to be lifted up on a pedestal and will tell you anything to get the glory of it. When you read your bible, pray before and ask God to open your eyes to what He is saying in the scripture. You need to grow in the knowledge of the Lord and can only do that by keeping yourself in the word.
Satan would like nothing better than for you to leave your bible on the shelf, unread. He doesn’t want you to know the scripture. He doesn’t want you to know the answers of questions asked. So it is that much more important for you to read your bible.
In the last several months I have been reading my bible a lot more. I know I have enjoyed it and find that if I have my quiet time and get my bible read and prayers. I am learning more and I am wanting to read it more! It helped by having a great bible study and friends to keep you accountable! I know I have been enjoying the couple of bible studies I am doing.
So find a friend or find a bible study, either online, at your church or somewhere else and join in! I know you won’t regret it one bit when you start reading your bible daily. The bible is your guide to life!
