Reading the Bible isn't just about opening to a random page. It's about approaching God's Word with humility, wisdom, and a desire to understand what He's truly saying. Today's devotional explores a few common mistakes that can keep us from experiencing the full depth of Scripture.
In this episode of the My Morning Devotional Podcast, Stephanie Alessi Muiña continues her practical series on Bible study with Proverbs 3:5–6, reminding us not to lean on our own understanding. She shares why context matters when reading the Bible and encourages listeners to approach Scripture with an open heart instead of personal assumptions.
Stephanie highlights three habits to avoid: reading verses without their surrounding context, interpreting Scripture only through our own perspective, and using the Bible as a tool to win debates. Instead, she encourages us to seek God's heart, understand the author's original message, and let our lives reflect the truth of God's Word before our words ever do.
In this episode, you'll discover:
Why context is essential when studying Scripture.
How to avoid reading the Bible through personal bias.
Why God's Word is meant for transformation, not arguments.
How living out your faith can speak louder than words.
Whether you're new to Bible study or looking to grow deeper in your daily devotional time, this Christian podcast offers practical encouragement to help you read Scripture with greater wisdom and purpose.
As you open your Bible today, ask yourself: Am I seeking to prove a point, or am I seeking to know God's heart?
Tune in and let's embrace the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives!
