There is one thing you need to do to experience the living word of God; read it. It doesn’t do you any good to set it on the shelf or keep in your purse. You need to read it. Water does you no good if you don’t drink it.
Before you drive into the word and study it, you need to have a good overview of the Bible. If you don’t look at the whole map, you won’t be able to find the treasure. Having an overview of the Bible is essential.
So what’s the challenge? I’m asking you to read the whole New Testament in 60 days. There are25 books in the New Testament and 260 chapters. Divide that by 60, and you need to read 4.33 chapters a day.
This challenge is not for everyone; but I would strongly urge you to take up this challenge as we walk closer to God. Our walk with Jesus is not a picnic; it requires work and effort.
I hope you will join me on this challenge and adventure as we read though the New Testament.
