�� SCRIPTURE READING
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness.” — 2 Timothy 3:16
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.” — Psalm 119:105
��️ MEDITATION
The most consistent and reliable way God speaks is through His Word.
Many people seek to hear God audibly, yet overlook the primary way He communicates daily—the Scriptures.
The Bible is not just a book; it is God speaking in written form.
Consider Joshua. God instructed him to meditate on the Book of the Law day and night. Why?
Because through the Word, he would receive direction, wisdom, and success.
Think about Jesus Christ during His temptation in the wilderness. Each time the enemy spoke, Jesus responded with, “It is written.” He relied on the Word as the voice of God in that moment.
Also, Timothy was taught from childhood the Holy Scriptures, which made him wise unto salvation.
The Word guided his life and ministry.
This is the mystery: when you read God’s Word, God is speaking to you personally.
The Bible is not just for information—it is for direction, correction, and transformation.
As you study it, meditate on it, and apply it, you begin to hear God more clearly.
