Less of Me/More of Him, A 21-Day Fasting StudySample
“DAY 12”
Today we look at another step in the process of returning to Jesus, recommitting to daily time in God's Word. Do you spend time reading God's Word each day? Each week? Once a month? Ever? If you read the Word of God far less than you would like, there are two things that I know are true: You are not alone, and you are not receiving all the Lord has for you. To know the mind of God, you must look into His Word.
Scripture says, "Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful” (Joshua 1:8).
Read Isaiah 6 and 2 Samuel 6. Highlight parts that are most meaningful for you.
