Reading God’s Word is one of the key factors a person can grow spiritually. It is where we discover who Jesus is, how He lived his life and the example He gave for us to follow. It is an inspiration for godly living, challenges us in how we live our life, and rebukes the things that we do wrong, but helps us correct those things to make them right.
“There's nothing like the written Word of God for showing you the way to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. Every part of Scripture is God-breathed and useful one way or another – showing us truth, exposing our rebellion, correcting our mistakes, training us to live God's way. Through the Word we are put together and shaped up for the tasks God has for us” | 2 Timothy 3:16-17, The Message.

Devotion to Christ may mean recalling His Word throughout the day, praying simple Nehemiah type prayers in the car or quietly worshiping while sitting in our favorite chair.
