Can reading the Bible change your life?

We can experience spiritual growth even if reading the Bible comes from a heart of obligation; that is how powerful God’s word is. But when we read the Bible and pray from a heart of love and desire to know Jesus, we grow, change, and become more like Christ. This is how we see a change in our life.

How much time should I spend reading my Bible?

That should be no more than 12 minutes per day. However, you may wish to spend some extra minutes pondering God. So I’ll recommend 15 minutes reading every day.

How do you commit to God?

Ask for forgiveness when you sin. However, there’s a way back to God—in 1 John 1:9, the Bible says, “If we confess our sins, [God] is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Pray to God admitting your sins, and ask him to forgive you and help you overcome them.

Should you study the Bible everyday?

Why You Should Read the Bible Regularly First, the Bible shows us God’s character and provides us God’s revelation of himself to his people.

What does God really want me to do with my life?

God is God and He works all things, including your life, according to his purposes. Nothing can happen without God ordaining it. Psalm 57:2 says, “I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.” This is key in understanding God’s purpose for your life.
