Do You Allow God to Speak to You Every Day? - Continue

 The Bible not only reveals where adjustments need to be made but also helps us to make adjustments. The apostle Paul wrote: "All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining  in righteousness." (2 Timothy 3:16, 17) Notice of the four benefits highlighted, three of them - reproving, setting thing straight, and disciplining-involve adjustments in our attitude and actions. If we need to look regularly in a mirror to ensure that our appearance is acceptable, how much more so must we need to read God 's Word, the Bible, on a regular basis!

Upon anointing Joshua to lead the nation of Israel, Jehovah God told him: "This book of the law should not depart from your mouth, and you must in an undertone read it day and night, in order that you may take care to do according to all that is written in it;  for then you will make your way successful and then you will act wisely." (Joshua 1:8) Yes, to be successful, Joshua needed to read God's Word "day and night," on a regular basis.
