Bible Reading Plan 2013Getting the Most Out of Your

Daily Bible Reading

As you read the Bible each day, allow the Scriptures to

speak to you. This daily “dialogue” between you and the

biblical text will reveal new understandings about God,

and about yourself.

Pray with focus and openness to see what God

has for you.

God connect me here, as I seek you in your Word.

Read the selected passage of Scripture slowly. Take

note of intriguing words and phrases. Read them a

second time.

Reflect on what strikes you as you read. Think through

what God is communicating to you at this point in

your life.

Respond to the passage. Speak to God directly about

what’s on your mind and heart. Look for ways to live out

what you’ve uncovered.

Enhance your daily Bible reading with a daily devotional

keyed to each day’s reading by visiting

DAILY BIBLE

READING

GUIDE

The word of God is

alive and active,

sharper than any

double-edged sword.

It cuts all the way

through,

to where soul and spirit

meet,

to where joints and

marrow come together.

It judges the desires

and thoughts of the

heart.

Getting the Most Out of Your

Daily Bible Reading

As you read the Bible each day, allow the Scriptures to

speak to you. This daily “dialogue” between you and the

biblical text will reveal new understandings about God,

and about yourself.

Pray with focus and openness to see what God

has for you.

God connect me here, as I seek you in your Word.

Read the selected passage of Scripture slowly. Take

note of intriguing words and phrases. Read them a

second time.

Reflect on what strikes you as you read. Think through

what God is communicating to you at this point in

your life.

Respond to the passage. Speak to God directly about

what’s on your mind and heart. Look for ways to live out

what you’ve uncovered.

Enhance your daily Bible reading with a daily devotional

keyed to each day’s reading by visiting

DailyBible.AmericanBible.org.

DAILY BIBLE

READING

GUIDE

The word of God is

alive and active,

sharper than any

double-edged sword.

It cuts all the way

through,

to where soul and spirit

meet,

to where joints and

marrow come together.

It judges the desires

and thoughts of the

heart.

Getting the Most Out of Your

Daily Bible Reading

As you read the Bible each day, allow the Scriptures to

speak to you. This daily “dialogue” between you and the

biblical text will reveal new understandings about God,

and about yourself.

Pray with focus and openness to see what God

has for you.

God connect me here, as I seek you in your Word.

Read the selected passage of Scripture slowly. Take

note of intriguing words and phrases. Read them a

second time.

Reflect on what strikes you as you read. Think through

what God is communicating to you at this point in

your life.

Respond to the passage. Speak to God directly about

what’s on your mind and heart. Look for ways to live out

what you’ve uncovered.

The word of God is

alive and active,

sharper than any

double-edged sword.

It cuts all the way

through,

to where soul and spirit

meet,

to where joints and

marrow come together.

It judges the desires

and thoughts of the

heart.

Getting the Most Out of Your

Daily Bible Reading

As you read the Bible each day, allow the Scriptures to

speak to you. This daily “dialogue” between you and the

biblical text will reveal new understandings about God,

and about yourself.

Pray with focus and openness to see what God

has for you.

God connect me here, as I seek you in your Word.

Read the selected passage of Scripture slowly. Take

note of intriguing words and phrases. Read them a

second time.

Reflect on what strikes you as you read. Think through

what God is communicating to you at this point in

your life.

Respond to the passage. Speak to God directly about

what’s on your mind and heart. Look for ways to live out

what you’ve uncovered.

keyed to each day’s reading by visiting

GUIDE

The word of God is

alive and active,

sharper than any

double-edged sword.

It cuts all the way

through,

to where soul and spirit

meet,

to where joints and

marrow come together.

It judges the desires

and thoughts of the

heart.

Getting the Most Out of Your

Daily Bible Reading

As you read the Bible each day, allow the Scriptures to

speak to you. This daily “dialogue” between you and the

biblical text will reveal new understandings about God,

and about yourself.

Pray with focus and openness to see what God

has for you.

God connect me here, as I seek you in your Word.

Read the selected passage of Scripture slowly. Take

note of intriguing words and phrases. Read them a

second time.

Reflect on what strikes you as you read. Think through

what God is communicating to you at this point in

your life.

Respond to the passage. Speak to God directly about

what’s on your mind and heart. Look for ways to live out

what you’ve uncovered.

Enhance your daily Bible reading with a daily devotional

keyed to each day’s reading by visiting

DailyBible.AmericanBible.org.
