You may think this is an easy “yes or no” question. But do you really consider reading the Bible as listening to the very voice of God? The Bible gives clarity, faith, direction, conviction, purpose, and passion. Not reading the Bible or not giving our reading time the focus and respect God deserves demonstrates arrogance and independence from God. The Bible has the power to change our life, heart and relationships. When we are not experiencing change in our life, we need to ask ourselves the question “Do I read my Bible?”
