Stay in the Word of God.

Once a believer told me that one of the strategies that devil employs to keep the believers from spiritual growth is to keep them away from the Word of God.

I have been reading the bible for quite a while and completed the whole bible once and now rereading it. You can read the bible as the Spirit of God conveys to you.

The pattern which I follow everyday is

1) Read about the crucifixion of Christ. Matthew Mark Luke(Last 3 chapters), John Last 4 chapters. To focus on the cross of Christ.

2) Read 3 Chapters from old testament or new testament, on consecutive days, one day old testament next day new testament.

3) Read one random psalm, for hope and deliverance.

Below is the reading pattern for the last few days(I repeat it once or twice a day).

Matt 28 Rom 9 Ps 20
Mark 16 Deu 3 Ps 127
Luke 24 Rom 12 Ps 29
John 21 Deu 6 Ps 137
Matt 28 Rom 15 Ps 35
Mark 16 Deu 9 Ps 136

To get closer to the will of God. It is better we also understand the Word of God (Read parable of the sower Matthew Ch 13 specifically Matt 13:13-14 and Matt 13:19. There may be multiple ways of doing this but one of the ways is to write down important verses and meditate on it.

Also if you have prayers which are very close to you (such as salvation of your loved ones) and you are trying to find answers. Write not more than 10 of these prayer request points and meditate on this requests daily, until an answer comes. Make sure or ask God for Wisdom that your requests are in the will of God (James 1:5, James 4:1-3)

If you are facing trials you can ask God for wisdom and also pen down your thoughts an example of this is in the site below.

Seek God and his grace and truth at this time. As it is written in John 1:17

John 1:17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

Even the bible was written by the disciples and prophets(inspired by God) who were facing persecutions, and were almost eliminated, but the Bible(God’s Word) remained.
