While we often think of prayer as a way for us to speak to God, we must remember that the Bible is how God speaks to us. During your time this week prayerfully consider how you listen to God’s word through daily Bible reading, memorizing scripture, and digging deeper into a single verse or passage. Use the below verses, one day at a time, to help you consider how important the Word of God is. Look it up in your own Bible. Write it down in the space provided. The verse is always there for you in the English Standard Version (ESV). Meditate on those verses. Chew on them a bit. Mull them over in your mind. Print them out on a card and put it somewhere you will see it throughout the day. Consider putting a notification alert on your phone a few times during the day as a verse reminder.
