John had revelation on loving God and His children. He made the qualifying statement, “This is love for God, to keep His commands.” [1 Jn. 5:3]

Herein lies a big reason why it’s so spiritually healthy to read through the Bible yearly. We ingest God’s Word, we gain a clearer understanding of His commands, we accumulate faith as we read, and we grow to love and depend upon Him more completely.

Our daily walk becomes a walk with Him. “If you abide in Me, and My Words abide in you, you shall ask what you will and it shall be done unto you.” [Jn. 15:7] This is fellowship with God, this is loving God.

PRAYER: Father, You have the words of life. Where else could we go?
