I can relate if you are struggling to read the Bible daily. We all get to a point that we don’t know what to read or where to begin reading in the Bible. I have been under a black cloud many times … and you know it’s there but you can’t put your finger on exactly what it is …. and you wonder why? What is it? What did I do wrong? … but know that it is of the devil and he is trying his best to distract you from anything to do with or for God. He will make you feel guilty because you are not reading the WORD; but know that condemnation comes from the devil.
There have been days that I could read the Bible for 8 hours non-stop with no food or drink. But there have also been weeks that I did not even read my Bible, not because I did not want to, but because “something” was blocking my path. I have found that I must find “a scripture” to hold on to during those times; one that I can memorize and hold deep inside my heart; repeat it out loud over and over again ….. and then suddenly the cloud is lifted, gone for now. God watches over his children. Jesus loves you so much and He knows the motives of your heart; He knows you are struggling, and He is right here waiting to help you. Love covers a multitude of sin. Walk in love everywhere you go. Let Jesus flow from your heart.
I pray that God will reveal to you his plan for your life, as he leads you onward in this journey of your life. I pray for strength for you to continue onward, to continue inward and deeper into God’s Word. I pray that God will give you Jeremiah 33:3 revelations. In Jesus’ name, AMEN! I thank God for you and for the mighty works God will do through you for His Glory! God bless you and every work of your hands.
Jeremiah 33:3 “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”
My favorite: Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” ….. this one has truly helped me through many struggles.
