The Bible is a gift from God to help us know Him better. He is our joy and He gives us living water. He wants to show us unending views of His majesty in the Bible.

If our hearts are open to Him, then if we jump in and examine the Bible from all sorts of angles like a kid in a room full of amazing toys, He will show us limitless gems in it.

It’s not so much about how we study as it is about seeking to see His glory.

There are many things we can do to study it. Abundant wonderful options. We can make outlines of what passages say. We can make diagrams of all kinds. We can look for specific things in the Bible. We can use highlighters in our Bibles. We can just write chapters of the Bible in a notebook and pray.

We don’t have to follow a plan for Bible study or reading. We can follow a plan. God just wants to show us how wonderful He is.

I was in a competition called the National Bible Bee, which is in the United States, from ages 11 to 18. It helped me get into the Bible more. I wrote a book of Bible study ideas called Bible Banqueting.
