When you make time every day to read the Bible and reflect on what it means, your heart and mind begin to change.

This 30-day devotional challenge is made to help you take small, daily steps in your walk with Christ.

Whether you are new to reading the Bible or have been a believer for many years, this simple plan can bring new meaning to your quiet time with God.

Why a 30-Day Devotional Challenge Matters

Committing to read the Bible for 30 days helps build a habit that can last beyond the month.

Sometimes life gets busy, and it is easy to forget to read the Bible or pray.

This challenge gives you a small goal to reach each day, which can help you stay focused.

Even just ten minutes a day can have a big effect on your faith.

Reading the Bible regularly can help you make better choices, feel more peace, and grow closer to God. Jesus said:

“Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” (Matthew 4:4)

When we feed our spirit with God’s Word, we grow stronger in faith and better prepared for life’s troubles.

How to Start the Challenge

To begin, choose a time each day that you can set aside for this devotional.

It can be in the morning before your day begins, during lunch, or in the evening before bed.

Pick a quiet place where you can read without being disturbed.

You do not need to read for a long time.

Focus on one short passage or chapter, read it slowly, and think about what it says.

You can use a notebook to write down your thoughts or prayers.

Ask God to help you understand what He wants to teach you.

“Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.” (Jeremiah 33:3)

What to Read Each Day

This challenge includes different parts of the Bible, such as Psalms, the Gospels, and letters from Paul.

Each day, read one passage that helps you grow in your faith and trust in God.

You might start with Psalm 1, then move to Matthew 5, Romans 12, and so on.

You can also choose themes, like love, patience, forgiveness, and prayer.

Make sure you spend time thinking about what you read.

Try to find one thing from the passage that you can carry with you through the day.

“But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” (James 1:22)

Prayer During the Challenge

Prayer is a very important part of the devotional time. After you read the Bible, take a few minutes to talk with God.

Thank Him for His Word and ask Him to help you live by it. Tell Him your thoughts, your fears, and your joys.

You do not need to use fancy words. Just speak to God honestly.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.” (Philippians 4:6)

Prayer keeps your heart open to God and helps you remember that He is always near.

What Happens After 30 Days

Once you finish the 30 days, you may find that reading the Bible has become part of your life.

You can start the challenge again or try a new reading plan. Keep using the same quiet time to meet with God each day.

Even when you miss a day, do not give up. Just return the next day and keep going.

“Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” (Galatians 6:9)

Growing in faith takes time, but the more you seek God, the more He will shape your life.
