Prayer and reading Scripture are two essential sides of your relationship with God. When you pray, you pour out your heart, expressing your needs, hopes, and thankfulness to God. But prayer alone isn’t enough; you must also listen. God speaks to you through His Word, offering wisdom, instruction, and guidance. Neglecting time in the Bible is like having a one-sided conversation where you do all the talking and miss out on what God wants to say. True communion with Him involves both speaking to Him and receiving from Him through Scripture.
Make it a priority to not only pray but to also regularly read and meditate on the Bible. It’s through His Word that God provides answers, corrects, encourages, and reveals His will for your life. Listening to God through Scripture is the key to growing in understanding and deepening your faith. Don’t just talk to God—be intentional in hearing what He has to say to you.
