Find the Answers and Power You Need in the Word When people ask me where to start reading the Bible, I tell them theres really no wrong place to start. You can study anything thats going to help you. When I first started studying the Word, I didnt have very good relationships because I didnt really understand what love was. So thats what I studied. As I studied the subject of love, I learned that its more than a gooey feeling. Its a decision you make about how youre going to treat people. By studying what the Bible says about love, I learned how to love. Then my life began to change. Whatever youre dealing with, you can find scriptures about it by using a concordance. For example, if youre dealing with anger or fear, flip to the concordance in the back of your Bible and locate those words to see which scriptures talk about those issues. If you cant think of anything right away, thumb through the concordance and pick a subject that grabs your attention. Begin looking at all scriptures referenced with this word and read them. Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you and reveal truth to you. No matter where you start, remember that the Word is alive and has something for you today! Prayer Starter: Lord, I know that Your Word has something for me today. No matter what Im dealing with, Im going to find out what Your Word says about it.
