I'm not trying to brag here or
anything, But Since December 9 1999, in which was the day that I
became a Born again Christian, I have read the bible straight through
from Genesis 1.1 through Revelation 22:21 six time, I currently am
reading though the bible for the seventh time, and I am proud to say,
has of this morning I have started the book of Revelation. I started
the current trip though the bible on July 28 2012 at 12:30 am, I know
it took me a lot longer to read through this time around, because I
got lazy and didn’t read for a long time, but since then God has
kick me in the butt and give me jump start and I been clicking off
books right and left ever since then, and knowing me as well as I do
this won't be the last time either.
During my fifth time read through the
bible I had a friend look at me who is a Christian, and told me “
Michael you really need to pull your nose out of that book and do
something with your life, and stop reading where I was and look up at
him and said “ Why would you say that for bud” Out of respect of
the person who is still a close friend I will leave him nameless,
why should I pull my nose out of the bible when it you who need to
put your nose in it,
Once I was on valley metro bus here in
Roanoke Virginia, I know a lady across from me with a not so nice
look on her face when see saw me pull out my bible from my book bag,
I over look her for a time, and start to chat with other rider on the
bus, and when I told the gentleman that I had read personally read
thought the bible six time and I was working on my seventh time,
this when the older lady across me spoke up in smart butt tone. “
Why would you want to read that book more then once? Well I was took
back by her question, I could have shoot back at her in the same
manner and tone she did but I didn't I Calm told her that it is
written in Ephesians 6: 17 that the word of God was a double blade
sword, and I keep reading the bible over and over again to keep the
blade of the sword sharpen .
Ladies and gentleman I know many of you
whom are reading this are asking yourself what does this have to do
with anything , so what if I have read though the bible six time or
seventh, what does it have to do with me, well it has a lot to do
with you, as a christian you should make a point to spend at least
an hour or two or maybe even more it up to you and your busy life.
Because if you spend time in the word of GOD everyday, it refresh the
truth of the Gospels in your mind, and It only an hour a day, it to
much for God to ask an hour of your time a day, I mean He loved you
enough to send his son into the world to die for your sin, So what
will to give up for him 15 min an hour maybe two think about it. I’m
not judging anyone here and was trying to, but remember to be a true
Warrior for Christ to have to know what your talking about when you
witness to the lost
This just a food for though,
