Do you study God’s Word?
Studying the books of the Bible, yes, all 66 books, can feel overwhelming at times. Most often, we have our favorite books we run too (which is fine…I have mine), but we must be careful we do not short circuit our Bible reading or time with God. All Scripture is meant for the Christian’s nourishment and growth.
We cannot come to God’s Word like, Psalms and Ruth are sweet dessert while Numbers is like eating lima beans (yuck!!!!). The “good stuff” gets gobbled-up while the ‘other’ books get overlooked. God has given us His whole specific council to read for His reasonings –for our good; we do well to take heed, take action to all His Word and read it.
As uninteresting as we may ‘think‘ the other books may seem, don’t be so quick to pass on challenging sections of the Bible.
- Jesus said that men and women live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God, not just some of them. (Romans 15:4).
- Seek the Father as you chew on the book of Exodus or contemplate the life of the prophet Hosea.
- All of His Words are sweet.
- Enjoy your God!
