Read the entire Bible in a year; Psalms and Proverbs, 12 times each in the same year. Does following this plan sound impossible? It takes 70 hours and 40 minutes(about 3 days) to read the entire Bible at the pulpit rate. It takes 52 hours and 20 minutes (a little over two days) to read the entire Old Testament.It takes18 hours and 20 minutes (less than two days) to read the entire New Testament. It takes 4 hours and 28 minutes to read the entire book of Psalms- the longest book to read in the Old Testament. It takes 2 hours 43 minutes to read the Gospel of Luke- the longest book to read in the New Testament. This reading guide can be used exclusively as a Devotional Guide or be used alongside other devotionals. Using this reading guide calls for effective time management. My book "Time Your Life" will be very helpful. A French nobleman, M. De Renty, read the Bible daily for three hours on his knees with uncovered head. Lady Frances Hobart read the Psalms 12 times a year, the New Testament 3 times, and other parts of the Old Testament once. Susannah, Countess of Suffolk, for the last seven years of her life read the Bible twice yearly. Other Christians all over the world are reading the Bible at a serious rate. Pursuing this Bible reading plan should not be a record-breaking venture but rather, a means to get closer to God- a time well spent in God's presence. It will be worth buying more than one Guide so each can be kept at a strategic place: On the dining table; at the restroom; at the office; and in the car. Those who may not be able to read on a daily basis can do Psalms and Proverbs on a daily basis and group the Main into weeks reading as a week-end mini-retreat at one's residence or a quiet place. Reading this guide must be a passionate pursuit. You do not need to be afraid of not being able to understand everything in the Bible. For Psalms and Proverbs, you will read it 12 times so do not be discouraged at the first attempt.The light we get from God's Word brings more - light. Keep reading. The Word of God works effectively in our hearts. May the Good Lord bless this pursuit.
