GIVE TIME TO READING

"Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching". 1 Timothy 4:13 NIV

Timothy was instructed by Paul to make sure that his Church was continually exposed to the Bible. He tells Timothy "Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture...; He was to be hard at work in the reading the Word of God. As the pastor, his main task was to be the one who maintained a godly life for others to see and then show them the truth of God’s Word.

Too many Christians read the Bible only when they want to and when they need to quote a particular scripture to help them in time of a need. The Bible is not meant to be complicated or misunderstood. It conveys the basic truths that we need at all times and whatever clarification(s) you require, you'll definitely find it in God's Word. Every knowledge in the world today are all included inside the Word. 

If you are going to grow spiritually in the things of God, you will have to find time to study the Word of God for yourself. Being gifted and called does not preclude the need to Improve. For the fact that you're reading this devotional right now means you're ready for the next level of greatness. It's your responsibility to read and study for yourself; no one can read for you especially when you know that you have to study to show yourself approved on to God.
