I'm 5 years in on being a daily reader but I was failing some days because I was depending on myself to not miss a day so about 6 months ago I cried out to God before I went to bed and I begged for help to desire His Word because I know my relationship with Him depends on it and I love The Lord but I just didn't have what it takes to be obedient enough to submit to The Bible daily and since then I've honest had new love and desire for not just reading the Bible but it's a whole new desire to love people and everything in life. I don't just read once a day, I have to read/ study 3 times a day praise God for answering that prayer. I honestly believe I have been "Born Again" because the desire I have to share The Gospel and disciple other Christians who are struggling. Praise God for loving us first and for giving us the only direction to His solid foundation through his Word. Jesus said Peter do you love me? Well feed my sheep!

Please turn down your back ground music.

Read your bible every day. I started reading daily in the morning about 4-5 months ago. My entire life has been changed since then!

Kindly stop with the background music. This is why people have difficulty concentrating on what people are saying. Thanks much!

It’s not enough to just read the Bible, we must also earnestly pray and seek His face. We should be spending at least as much time on our knees, earnestly praying and seeking His face as we do reading our bibles if we wish to have a balanced and effective devotional life.

When I first started a regular discipline of daily devotional reading some 35 year ago. I looked at it as a chore. Today it is the first breath I take every morning and I cannot get through my day without first sitting at the feet of the Father through the reading of scripture. When I read scripture, God's word is a familiar friend. When I was young my grandmother would sit me on her lap and read stories. In those days, because of family problems, my grandmother's lap was the only place that I felt loved and secure. I get that same feeling now when I open my bible and read.

I’ve been putting the bible at the beginning of my days. Its not easy being a Christian but you will never regret this. Reading the bible is how you hear from God. (John 10:27) (2 Timothy 3:16-17)

The last 4 perhaps 5 years or so my children and I gather at night to read and pray, but lately I have really struggled, I find it hard to have that desire to just sit together to read and pray, it's hard. When I go to sleep those nights I feel horrible, I feel empty, I'll wake up in the morning and feeling weak, empty knowing that I ignored the most important relationship I have, the one with my creator.

This is so true for me as a ex meth addict if I walk away from my faith I will end up back on drugs and meth is the devils drug its happened once a few years ago n I can never let it happen agian or I will die so my faith keeps me alive

Psa 119:92 Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

I am systematically reading through the Word every morning. I started at the beginning of January 2023 and every day I read a chapter out of 2 Old Testament books and 2 New Testament books. By the 1st of Feb,I've managed to complete 2/3 of Genesis, the whole of Ezra, the whole of Nehemiah and Esther and tomorrow I start on Job. In the New Testament I've completed Acts and Matthew and I started Mark a few days ago.

If i don’t consume this book and i don’t pray, I’M GONNA DIE.

Simply put, I will Die without his word. That is how and why I read or listen to the bible in place of listening to music or the radio. I watch You Tube sermons rather than watch a TV series. Not all the time but most of the time and all of the time with music and radio. It’s like smoking cigarettes. To quit I had to tell myself this is suicide, which it is. I then told myself without God I am nothing and will wither. So, the only way to know God is to listen to his word. 13 times now I have listed to the bible. and like Paul said, one time I listened to the book of Romans 35 times straight. That is how I know God. Every time I hear the word it is relevant to what I am currently doing in my life. He guides and protects me. God Bless.

I met Jesus when I was a soldier, and from then on I've loved His Word. But as a baby Christian, I had no knowledge of Scripture at all. None.

Every word is true. It's hard to read, pray and spend time with God.But you got to FIGHT to read, fight to pray and fight to spend time with God. The devil is attacking the Saints and we can't allow him too. Jesus is soon to COME. Be in courage and keep on pressing

I don't know exactly how I developed a deep hunger/need to read or hear scripture preached every day. I'm older and I suspect a confluence of difficult events (aka "life") punched me in the gut and completely got my attention for the first time in my Christian life.

Love Paul Washer! He's influenced me so much. Before I came to Christ a few years ago, the Bible seemed so big and intimidating, but I've been reading it every single day since turning to Christ, and it's not intimidating anymore. It's my lifeline, and I can't imagine missing a day. It's such a treasure to me.

Wow 😲, I have been there Paul. Heart attack, multiple stents,ICD implanted,2 AED shocks while I was conscious. Sudden cardiac death Your honesty about struggling after your event is a thing I can relate to. Blessed beyond words 🙏✝️🤗

This is so true. Brings tears to my eyes. Thanks for sharing.

Simple yet profound. Like The Gospel.
