Making Your Bible Come Alive

from the messages of Adrian Rogers

BIBLE MEDITATION:
2 Timothy 2:15 - "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Why is it that sometimes when we read the Bible we leave our common sense at the door? You don’t just pick up a book, open it at random, and start reading in the middle of a paragraph. The book wouldn’t make any sense. In order to understand and get the full appreciation for the book, we read it sequentially and in paragraphs or units. When you read the Bible, read for quality not quantity. Don’t see how much of the Bible you can read. See how much of the Bible you can assimilate and apply! Maybe what you need to do is spend a week studying one verse.
ACTION POINT:
In your Bible reading today, stop and ask yourself, "What is God telling me?" Not "What does this say?" But "What is God saying to ME?" Then seek to put that into practice today.
