How to read Bible interestingly

Thy WORD is a lamp into my feet and a LIGHT unto my path.

How to read Bible interestingly.

Hold your Bible and lift it up.
Not the phones.

The first point in reading Bible interestingly is

OWN A BIBLE.

BUY A BIBLE
CASE IT NICELY
HAVE A SMALL BOOK IN IT
OR STICKY NOTES AND A PEN.

Make Bible more LOVED.

Treasure it.

2.READ BIBLE IN THE BIBLE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

WHY?
BECAUSE YOU WILL BE READING ONLY BIBLE.

NO DISTURBANCE FROM SOCIAL MEDIA.

3.VALUE THE TIME OF READING BIBLE.

EXAMPLE: IF WE SPEND TIME SPEAKING TO GUEST WE ALLOCATE THE TIME TO READ.

For many reading Bible is a big hard task.
If you take Isaiah 32 or Amos 2 or Ezekiel 47 they will be lost .

But if you ask Psalm 23 ,Psalm 91 or John 3:16...they can relate to these verses and can say yes I can read  these verses confidently.

DIVISION OF BOOKS

OT
5 -12 - 5 - 5 - 12

NT
GOSPELS PREACHED-
CHURCH FORMED-
DOCTRINE GIVEN-
LETTERS FOR EDIFICATION
REVELATION

WORD OF GOD IS FOR CORRECTION.

MANNA:

1) READ BIBLE SLOWLY.
EXAMPLE:

MATTHEW 6:

OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN.

WHAT DO YOU UNDERSTAND IN THIS PRAYER?

EVERY WORD IN THE BIBLE HAS MEANING, EVEN PRONOUNS.

2)CONNECTING THE BIBLE VERSES.

SUM OF THE WORD IS TRUTH.

WORD COMPLEMENTS THE WORD.

EXAMPLE GENESIS 28 WITH JOHN 1

1. LADDER.
2. TWO OLIVE TREES ( REVELATION AND EXODUS AND 1 KINGS)

OLD TESTAMENT READING OFTEN GETS CHALLENGING

WHAT HELPS

READ PREFACE:
WHO IS WRITING
TO WHOM IS WRITING
WHAT IS THE CONTEXT
HOW IT IS APPLICABLE IN NEW TESTAMENT.

WHATS THE BIGGER PICTURE.

OT IS SHADOW OF NT.

So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths, which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ.
Colossians 2:16‭-‬17 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/col.2.16-17.NKJV

EXAMPLE:

TABERNACLE - GODS SALVATION.

EXODUS 25 - ROMANS 3,
HEBREWS 8

ONCE YOU ESTABLISH A CONNECTION, UNDERSTANDING GETS BETTER.

ASK QUESTIONS TO KNOW MORE.

SON OF PROMISE

KNOW THE PEOPLE IN BIBLE

SHARE THE WORD

EVERY WORD YOU SPEAK YOU ARE ACCOUNTABLE.

MALACHI 3
WHEN YOU SHARE THE WORD WITH EACH OTHER, IT IS RECORDED.

IN GODS SIGHT IT IS PRECIOUS.

SHARING THE WORD STAMPS THE WORD IN YOUR HEART.

WHEN YOU READ YOU MAY FORGET, BUT WHEN YOU SHARE YOU WILL REMEMBER.

MEMORY POWER INCREASES BY SHARING.

RECENTLY I SHARED TO THE YOUTH ABOUT HOW A MAN BEFORE BIRTH.

THE VERSE IS
JEREMIAH 1:5

APPLY THE WORD:

THE BIBLE GETS MOST INTERESTING WHEN YOU APPLY WORD IN LIFE.

Look up the Words.

Know the Context.

The Word of God is for correction,

Connection to OT to NT.

Put yourself in the Word and read as if God is speaking to you.
