“Help.”
That was my fancy prayer. God answered.
For over 3 years, He has cultivated in me the discipline of meeting with Him.
I’ve learned that consistent study is hard work that cannot be done in your own strength. And that studying the Bible is worth every second.
“My word that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.”
(Isaiah 55:11, ESV)
Here’s how you can start moving toward consistency:
Don’t underestimate the importance of ease and habit. If your Bible is in one room, your study in another and your highlighters are scattered all over, the act of getting started becomes a chore. Remove every possible obstacle. Choose a general time and a specific place where you’ll meet with God. Life is filled with distractions, so some days it may be impossible to remove all of the noise. But if the God Man, Jesus, had to withdraw to be with His Father, we ought to try to withdraw too.
“He went out to the mountain to pray.”
(Luke 6:12, ESV)
You are able to abide in the Bible with consistency, friend. First, empty yourself. Then, make sure you know your why. And finally, set a time and a place to withdraw so you can just go be with your God.
He waits for you.

Bible commentaries are helpful tools that further explain and interpret Scripture for us. We recommend only going to commentaries after doing some digging yourself.
