One Year Bible Reading Plan

The Loving God Journal will guide you through a Bible reading plan that will take you through the New Testament and the Old Testament once and through the Psalms twice within a year’s time. You will learn to hear the voice of God as the Holy Spirit enlightens you through Scriptures that pertains to your daily life.

The world, the flesh, and the devil conspire to keep us from consistent Bible intake. Our spiritual enemies constantly tempt us to keep from making commitments to continually read through the Bible year after year. But making such a commitment is the way we renew our minds and grow in our faith (Acts 20:27). We need a workable, strategic plan to give God’s Word the rightful place in our lives (Isaiah 32:8). A suggested plan is downloadable here.

The plan includes an Old Testament reading, a New Testament reading, a reading in the Psalms, and a reading in Proverbs. You might find that on some days you have less time for your devotions than on other days. You may be unable to read in all four sections of scripture. Rather than skipping your time altogether, just choose to read the Psalm for the day or the New Testament passage. The key to growing in your love for God is being consistent in hearing from God day by day.
