Whether you're a lifelong believer or have recently discovered your faith, you'll find the support and encouragement you need here. Our primary objective is to encourage daily Bible reading, as it's the foundation of spiritual growth.

 

Regularly immersing oneself in God's Holy Word has a transformative effect on the heart and mind. It enhances spiritual understanding, brings inner peace, instills hope, and boosts self-confidence because we learn to trust  in the Lord and not in ourselves.

 

When we read our Bible, we begin to discover our purpose and believe in God's plan for us. This growth enables us to become a beacon of God's love and light, shining bright for all to see. We can then carry God's light into our homes, workplaces, and into our community, bringing glory to God in all we say and do.

Why Do We Read God's Holy Word?

​

Strengthening your faith and gaining a deeper understanding of God's ways is essential, and the only way to do so is by spending time reading God's Holy Word. As a Christian, you are already familiar with the Bible's significance in shaping one's life. It is called the Christian's manual for life and provides daily bread for the soul. The Bible is where we gain knowledge of God, His ways, and how to live a righteous life.

​

A Christian cannot grow and mature into a spiritually strong person without daily nourishment for the soul and spirit. Are you tired of living in sin and longing for the truth? Spend some time in the Holy written Word of God. It has the power to cleanse us from sin and unrighteousness. Begin in Psalm Chapter 1, verse 1, and read about the man who has God's favor and blessing. This man does not listen to the counsel of sinners, but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and he meditates on the Word of God day and night. This chapter goes on to describe how this person shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that brings forth fruit in its season, and everything he does will prosper.

​

Would you like to be blessed in your life? Do you want to prosper in your season of life? Start by reading about God's love for you and educate yourself on how to live a righteous and holy life before God and others.
