But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
Time for a quick off topic post. Have you considered how important it is to read your Bible? Take a read again of those verses above in that context.
For me, I read online using youversion.com – I link every scripture there too. Why? For me, online is easier – I read on my laptop or iphone, and it marks for me what I read.
That’s right – I have a daily plan, with set goals every day. I use the new reading plans here to help me do that (right now I am doing Bible in 90 days). It might not be for you – but for me it helps, and it might just be the resource you need. You can choose from one of many reading plans, customise it to be faster or slower, or just create your own. You can also share your plan and set accountabilities if that helps.

No, I’m not affiliated with them – I just think it’s a great idea! So get on with it and read your Bible – whichever way works for you!
God, place in us a desire to know you more, to read your word more, to understand you and what you want for our lives more. Help us to be all that you created us to be. In Jesus Name. Amen.
