Does it make a difference if I read my Bible every day? Does it really? I know many people who feel this way. It is beyond their imaginings that reading a bit of God’s word every day really can make a difference in your life. I know better but it was a long time before I truly saw the truth within this.
I have for the last two years now been a strong proponent for not just reading your Bible but really reading it. Every page, every chapter and verse – not necessarily in that order. Brian Hardin not only provides resources for planning how you will read your Bible in a year but also provides encouragement and devotions both online and off. He speaks to how this can and will change your life, and mnore inportantly the relationship that you have with Him.
Only God’s word has the power to save, to transform us into new creatures, born new. But as Brian Hardin points out throughout this book, without the daily bread and water (His word) we cannot sustain any life in Him. Truly as you read through His word things shall change, you shall have eyes that see and ears that hear amazing truths, hidden in His word. And as you hide His word in your heart change shall occur – – but onbly when we seek Him with all our heart.
John Quincy Adams, the sixth president of our country, once stated... "So great is my veneration for the Bible that the earlier my children begin to read it the more confident will be my hope that they will prove useful citizens of their country and respectable members of society. I have for many years made it a practice to read through the Bible once every year."
This book truly can be such an inspiration and guide, to those who are new to Christ and to His word. If you have ever had any doubt as to what He can do, read this book and take the challenge. Travel the passage and see what He will do – there is always something new.
