Did you know that if you spent just 7 minutes a day reading the Bible, you would read it cover to cover in 2 years?
 
That means that in 10 years, it would be possible to read through the entire Bible 5 times.
 
We all have 1,440 minutes each day. Can you find 7 minutes each day to get to know God better?
 
If you didn’t start reading through the Bible on January 1st, it’s never too late to start.
 
And when you get behind in your reading, don’t quit. Pick yourself back up, get back on track and don’t worry about the missed days. Just keep moving forward… one day at a time. Even if your 2-year plan ends up being a 3-year plan, it is still incredibly worth it.

“We must daily soak ourselves in the Scriptures. We must not just study, as through a microscope, the linguistic minutiae of a few verses, but take our telescope and scan the wide expanses of God’s Word, assimilating its grand theme of divine sovereignty in the redemption of mankind.”

(John Stott)

“It is blessed to eat into the very soul of the Bible until, at last, you come to talk in scriptural language, and your spirit is flavored with the words of the Lord, so that your blood is bibline and the very essence of the Bible flows from you.”

(Charles Spurgeon)
