Bible reading for 2009

Folks in the church have often asked me how I read the Bible. I usually use various approaches but also continue reading a few books constantly. The last two years I read the entire Bible out loud which I enjoyed, especially all those tough and almost impossible to pronounce names in the Old Testament ;). I also started last year and continuing this year, to read a chapter of the book of Revelation out loud each day. I started this because I wanted to become very familiar with the content of this very important book especially since we are in the last days as stated in Hebrews 1:2. There is also a blessing to those who read aloud and hear and keep the things contained in the book (Revelation 1:3). I will also attempt to memorize the book of Revelation this year.
I have also for several years now read a chapter of Proverbs a day and five Psalms a day. So I read through Psalms and Proverbs each month which is so practical (Proverbs) and also very devotional(psalms). As one who loves doctrine and systematic Theology, the above reading plan keeps me balanced with devotion, doctrine and duty. Both my mind and my heart is nourished and fed daily.
For 2009, I have just started reading three chapters a day in the Old Testament and a chapter day of the New Testament in my Greek New Testament . I also read a chapter a day in my English Bible as well. So I get into the original language which is edifying and sharpens my knowledge and vocabulary of New Testament Greek as well as read the English translation in my favorite version which is the KJV. I love the ESV as well and will use that as an alternate version.
In addition to all this, if I am teaching a particular book in the Bible, I will read that book repetitiously every day to prepare for my teaching during the weeks and months that I teach the book. This will often bring me to a total of at least twenty or more chapters a day. I find the time. It is not always easy to do. I get up early to do this or find time somewhere in the day and also at night. I have discovered that the things that I set my heart on doing will somehow get done. I love God's Word. I love the Truth. I discover Truth in my reading and study of it and I hunger for it. It brings me joy. It convicts me to the core of my being. It brings me to confession and repentance. It exhorts me, corrects me and instructs me.
I try to keep a book of my thoughts on this. I am not always diligent to write them down but I am working on that this year. Perhaps next year I will start reading the Old testament from my Hebrew Bible. I want to be the man in Psalm One who meditates in the Word day and night(Psalm 1:2).
Thy Word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it(Psalm 119:140 KJV).
