So we all know that formulas hardly work when it comes to spiritual change, so here are some suggestions as you look to what is most precious. Hang in there we are all in this thing together.
1. Deepen your desire for God’s Word
- Feast on it. Nothing makes us desire more scripture than scripture.
- Pray through scripture
- Meditate on it
- What do the words tell you about Christ?
- How can you experience deeper fellowship with Christ because of what is written?
- Rewrite it in your own words
- Read less if necessary, and meditate more
- Example: Pray through or meditate on Psalm 119
2. Make time for God’s Word
“Resolved, To study the Scriptures so steadily, constantly, and frequently, as
that I may find and plainly perceive myself to grow in knowledge of the
same.” – Jonathan Edwards
3. Daily spend time, don’t close until you know of one response to your reading.
- Read the Bible for application not just information
4. Ask always, “How does the Bible speak to this?”
- Finding His glory and our joy by living in accordance with His loving design
