We are blessed to have a multitude of excellent resources to enhance our time in the Word. I’m always on the lookout for books, articles and sermons that communicate effective ways to read the Word.
As a result of spending quality time in the Word, I want to know God more deeply, love Him more sincerely, and obey Him more wholeheartedly.
And I believe you do, too. That’s why you’re reading this article.
I recently came across a blog post by Erik Raymond that does all the above. It’s entitled “A Tool for Reading the Bible Devotionally.” Don’t let the brevity of this article fool you. In a straightforward, easy-to-understand manner, he explains a 4-step method to read Scripture that I find wonderfully beneficial.
It also includes an example by showing you how to use these 4 steps when reading a specific passage (Ephesians 5:1-21).
It may only take you 10 or 15 minutes to read Erik’s post. You won’t regret it. And if take to heart this approach to Scripture and implement it faithfully, I know God will open the eyes of your heart and mind, so that you will see wonderful things about Him in His Word.
