How to read the Bible to hear the voice of God
“Open my eyes that I may see the wonders of your law” Psalm 119:18
The Bible is not like any other book. The Bible is God’s written word inspired by
his Holy Spirit pointing to God’s Living Word, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
This Bible reading plan includes Old Testament and New Testament readings
everyday with Psalms intertwined. It is arranged in a canonical order. This
means that the readings follow more or less the theological and chronological
development in the books of the Bible in a way that points to the
complementary nature of the Testaments. The Old Testament is the written
account of God’s promises to his people. The New Testament is God’s
fulfillment of his promises through his Son Jesus Christ.
In order to get the most out of your Bible reading, I would like to encourage you
to set up apart a special time of your day to make room for God to speak to you
through the passages that you will read and through prayer. Look for a place
where you can give your attention to God even if for a few minutes. There is
nothing more vital to your relationship with God than reading your Bible and
praying.
I would like to also encourage you to have a journal where you can record your
conversations with God. It doesn’t have to be a fancy one, just a notebook that
you devote for this purpose would be enough. At the very least, use the right
column on this reading plan to record the main idea God wants to communicate
to you each day.
The following four steps are a guide that you may use to prepare yourself to
listen to God. They have been followed by many Christians throughout history
to experience God’s presence as they read Scripture.
1. Read: Spend a minute in silent prayer and ask the Lord to speak to you
through the passage assigned for the day. Ask him to prepare your heart
to receive his word in humility. If time allows, read it a couple of times to
make sure you are listening to the Spirit’s voice. Pay attention to anything
4
in particular that the Holy Spirit may make you aware of or draw your
interest into.
2. Reflect: After reading the passage, go back to any section that may have
caught your attention and read them again slowly. Dwell in the passage
for a moment and ask the Lord to show you what is going on in the
passage and what it means in its context. Ask him to show you what he
wants to tell you through this passage at this point in your life. Record
your thoughts and prayerful conversation in your journal for further
reflection.
3. Respond: Ask the Lord to show you what he wants you to do in response
to his revealed truth. Is there an example to follow? A command to obey?
A sin to confess and abandon? Be as specific as you can possibly be.
Capture your thoughts in your journal and ask the Lord to give you the
courage to obey him.
4. Rest: Spend a few minutes in adoration, thanking God for speaking to
you. Allow the word of God to soak your inner being with the peace of
Christ and rest in his provision through Jesus Christ. Ask the Lord to give
you the strength to abide in him today and thank him for his provision in
your life through his Son Jesus Christ.
May the Lord meet you on your journey every day!
