On Bible Reading

My sweet kids, there will be a day, when there will be no need to read the Bible or pray. That day will be when we are at the Lord's presence for ever; Bible reading will not be necessary, because He will speak to us directly, and no need to pray, because there will be nothing to pray about!, we'll have no needs, no desires other than what we have.. to be in His presence forever!

We are not there yet. But if you want to enjoy heaven and His precious presence, get to know Him now. Know Him as much as you can, learn from Him and read what He has to say to you... How do you know you want to go to heaven, if you do not know who you are going to be with for the rest of your eternity!

Know Him now! This is your time! Read your Bible, His written word, the same word that made the heavens and the earth and all that is in them; the same word that opened the red sea so that His people were saved; the same word that spoke to Moses in the burning bush; the same word told the waters to stay still; the same word that gave sight to the blind; the same word that it is the power of God for salvation. That word is in your hands! That word is at your reach, to read and to treasure... and that word, can save you, give you life, and feed your hungry soul.

Read the Bible, read it all. If you want to know your Creator, whom you'll meet one day face to face.. know Him and seek Him. He is loving and merciful... He will show you who He is, and trust me, He will be more desirable than the world.. so much, that you will not be able to let go of Him.

Matthew Henry, a man of God, that wrote many commentaries on the Bible, when he was young, he used to run to his room right after family devotions and pray: "God please keep these words I just heard in my heart safe that I may not forget them"..  he had fear for the Lord since he was young.
