What does the Bible say about reading the word of god?

Bible Topic · WEB

The Bible teaches that God’s Word is living, true, sufficient, and essential for nourishing faith, guiding obedience, and giving believers hope. Scripture is God-breathed and equips God’s people for every good work, while Hebrews 4:12 says it searches and exposes the heart. Joshua 1:8 commends regular meditation, and Psalm 119 calls God’s Word a lamp for our path and a treasure to hide within us against sin. We should therefore read it prayerfully, asking with Psalm 119:18 for opened eyes to behold its wonders. Through the Word, Christ the eternal Word is made known, and believers grow like infants nourished by pure spiritual milk.
