“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Psalm 119:105
Happy New Year, Rock Church!
Today is the beginning of the new year and with that comes plenty of aspiring goals, fresh starts and new beginnings! As your church family, we sincerely hope that you are resolved to make 2019 a year of walking in the light of God’s Word, to get into God’s Word.
I would love to encourage you to take some time TODAY (January 1, 2019) and come up with a game plan on how you can spend more time in God’s Word this year.
Here are some simple ways to help get you started:
- Pray for God to give you a passion to dive into His Word every day.
- Set a time that you can read, daily.
- Create a recurring task in your calendar.
- Set an alarm on your phone.
- Some plans listed below offer an email or push notification with your daily reading, make sure to set those.
- Download a free Bible App to your mobile device. Most Bible Apps will read the Bible to you as well! This is an excellent way to hear God’s Word while commuting to and from work or at the gym. Here are a few.
- Choose a Bible Reading Plan that will work best for you. My personal favorite is the 5 Day Reading Plan.
- Find a friend to join you on your reading journey and do it together!
- When you’re finished reading don’t forget to pray, meditate, and/or write down what God has revealed to you in a journal (digital or analog). You can use this simple method called, S.O.A.P. to help you with the process.
May God draw you closer to Him and His Truth in this new year.
