Read through your ESV Bible for 2012

Bible Readings plans

Thank you for letting me know that there are people around the globe that do not read English. Believe me, I know how you feel. Been there, Done that. When I arrived to The Unites States I only knew how to say thank you!

 In our Prayer workshop in life class, we always share stories that stress the importance of reading your Bible.

A teen was ready to go to College in another state. Everything was ready except that he had no car and being far from home without a car would be quite a challenge. So then his father asked him, "Tell me son, what is it that you want," immediately the son replied, "a car, I want a car." The father, who was compassionate because he knew what it was like to not have transportation, said, "Lets make a deal. If you read this bible every day, I promise you that I will buy you a car." 

  Months and years pass by and his son finished College with honors. His father was so proud of his son, so when they got to the celebration party, the father opened his heart and told the son how proud of him he was.The son, with a bitterness in his voice, told him, "But Father, you promised that you would buy me a car and in these last four years you never did it, knowing how much I needed it."

  With the father's face hanging, he asked his son, "Do you have the Bible that I asked you to read before you began College?" he asked. "Yes, I do," said the son. "Let me see it," said the father. When the father opened the Bible to the Book of Genesis , there, hidden in between the first two pages, was a check with the car's price and the son's name.

What are the promises that you are looking for? Healing, prosperity, forgiveness, deliberation? Do you know where in the Bible is your promise?

If my husband were to ask me where the cash was in our house, I would give him directions: go to the kitchen pantry,  second shelf, under the cookie jar, in the "Yerba mate" container is an envelope, and there you would find the money.

In the same way when we pray we need to know where in the Bible is the treasure and keep it in our heart.

When you don't know what or how to pray , just quote the word of God. It will never fail.

Make an appointment with the Lord , put it in your outlook, in your agenda, or in your calendar. If you have an appointment with your dentist because you are in pain, you are counting the minute to meet him. In the same way, keep your appointment with God. Those 15 minutes you spend reading your Bible will change your life. For sure, your prayer life will change.

Well, here are the same updates that you can print or set in your i-Phone or your e-mail.

I also added some e-tools as a link that can be very useful.

For the one who asked me what app my husband uses in his truck, you can find it at 

http://www.bible.is but you can also set it up on your computer, and continue learning in your home or your work.

This link will help you to find online services in different languages.
