Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. — Psalm 119:105 |
Studying the Bible will help us every day of our lives. You want to go deeper with the Lord. So do I. Truth be told, we could study it for our entire lives, hour after hour, day after day, and never plumb the depths. It's richer than we'll ever understand until we get to Heaven. According to Hebrews 4:12, Scripture is "alive and active, sharper than any two-edged sword." We know that to be true, but we also get tripped up by interruptions and diversions that can keep us from getting started or derail us once we do. So, what are some ways we can actually dive in on a daily basis… and keep going? It's not as hard as we may think. There are a few things we can safeguard and plan in order to have a solid study time every morning (or evening, or whenever). Try these! |
10 Tips for Studying Your Bible - Remove distractions.
- Keep a notepad beside you to write down thoughts that might divert you so you can set them aside for later.
- Pray before you start.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to speak to you and stop occasionally to listen and meditate on the Word.
- Read and study one book at a time.
- Use a Bible journal.
- Read Chronologically.
- Research new and interesting learnings.
- Learn along with a video Bible study.
- Memorize verses or passages (or chapters).
Bonus. Don't just read it; listen to the audio Bible. |

Chronological Study Bibles |
The Chronological Study Bible presents Scripture in chronological order—the order in which the events happened—with notes, articles, and full-color graphics that connect the reader to the history and culture of biblical times. Starting with creation and moving through God's people in the Old Testament, the life of Jesus and the birth of the church, this Bible provides a vivid picture of God's work throughout history. |
