I love to read. I often can be found sitting on my couch curled up with a book.
I can read when I’m tired. Stressed. Needing a stay-cation.
I thought today I’d share a tip of sorts for those of you reading the Bible in 90 days with us. And of course this tip will help anyone reading the bible as well.

We are starting the third week of our reading plan. For those of us reading the bible chronologically based on the NLT schedule we’ve completed two months of reading in two weeks.
WOW!
Can you believe it? I am always amazed.
Now to my tip….
Look for God.
I know, not rocket science. But stay with me here.
We as believers know the end of this story. We know Jesus. We know the need for heavenly help, His help.
Thus, as you’re reading the bible look for God. Look for His plans of redemption. Salvation.
Read it Like a Novel.
This also sounds a bit nuts. Read the bible like a novel.
Remember God is the main character. All others are supporting. They are in the spotlight for a purpose…His glory.
Adam…
Eve…
Joseph…
Job…
His glory.
We are reading at warp speed. You don’t have time to read and study. Not at this pace. I strongly recommend you keep your study time separate. But as you read and look for Him. Look at His plans unfolding before your eyes.
Here’s some questions to get you started:
- What does your reading reveal to you about God’s character….who He is?
- How does your reading point to Jesus?
- How does your reading show our need for Christ?

Monday Check-Ins
For my mentees Mondays post will be our check in posts. Let me know how things are going. How did your first week of reading go?
Past Check In Posts:
I am constantly amazed by God’s demand for perfection in all that we do. The strict regulations He sets forth for the tabernacle and the priests reminds me of my need for a Savior. There is nohumanly way possible that we could even come close to the perfection that our God demands. Wow. So thankful for our precious Savior, Jesus!
Amen! Got you. Have a great day sis!
I’m SO thankful that there is JESUS who gives us grace! I’m glad to be in this generation and not during the Old Testament. WHEW! I would have never made it:0)
Tell me about it. :o) Got you. Enjoy your holiday.
I’m here:) Doing good!
Got you. Awesome!
I’m here and doing good also.
Great. Got you.
You already posted my best tip: read like a novel. It kinda frees you up to read whenever, wherever… be that 5 minutes or an hour! Gotta get it in when you can!
So true. That is where you’ll find your success. Reading whenever you can. Have a great weekend.
