With the beginning of the new calendar year, I especially encourage you to read the Scriptures regularly. Instead of simply reading through the Bible, meditate on the texts that you are reading throughout the day, and apply them to your life. Don't just read it and forget it.
Also, take time to memorize scripture, for this is actually one of the best ways to meditate upon God's Word. If you know it, you will be far more likely to apply it. Memorize a whole chapter or several verses in context. Not only does this prevent interpretation out of context, but it helps in gaining the full picture surrounding the punchline of a text.
To Him be the glory!
