“Remember not the
former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing;
now it springs forth…” —Isa. 43:18–19
Happy New Year!
God is constantly in the process of making “new creations” (2 Cor. 5:17). But
in certain seasons—like the coming of a New Year—we tend to be more aware of
His renewals than at other times. As you
consider goals and resolutions for 2014, here are three simple ways you can
make the Bible a daily part of your life:
Find your #Verse2014.
Choose one verse that you can focus on throughout 2014. Invite it into your
life, display it, and share it with people you know.
Commit to a Bible
Plan. This has helped so many make God’s Word a daily part of their life.
Sign up for a short, 20- or 30-day devotional. Build your confidence by
completing your first plan. Then come back for another. Included is a list
below of some of great starters. I’m
reading the Chronological plan this year.
Share the Word.
Invite family and friends to read with you. Help them get the Bible App, show
them how to sign up for the plan you’re using, then discuss what you’ve read.
Inspire others by sharing what you’re reading in emails, texts, Twitter,
Facebook, and Instagram. God’s Word comes alive in community (Heb. 4:12).
2014 is going to be a great year – it will be even better if
you commit to spending time each day brining the Bible into your everyday! Here’s where you can find a reading plan for
