1. Before you read the Bible, make a sincere prayer to the Holy Spirit, and ask Him for light and guidance in your reading.
2. Choose a quiet place where you can read in peace. You should read in a seated position, never lying down.
3. Never read the Bible in a hurry. On the contrary, read it slowly, taking note of the punctuation, which is a very important aid to understand what is written.
4. Pay attention to the verbs because they express action.
5. Take note of the words you do not understand, and after your reading, look them up in a dictionary.
6. Keep on reading, even if you do not understand a particular section very well. When you read those passages at a later time, they will be clearer to you.
7. Never put off reading today until tomorrow. Remember that the devil will try everything he can to make you give up on reading the entire Bible, because he knows that if you do, you will be better equipped and stronger in your faith.
