Rooted Bible Reading & Prayer Guide

Be With Jesus: Stay Connected to the Vine

One of the most life-changing habits you can develop as a follower of Jesus is spending consistent time in God’s Word and prayer. Jesus said, “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in Me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5)

When we open Scripture, we don’t just read words on a page—we meet with the living God. The Bible anchors us in truth, shapes our decisions, and reminds us who we are in Christ. Prayer allows us to respond, aligning our hearts with His.

Research from the Center for Bible Engagement found that people who engage the Bible four or more times per week experience measurable life change—greater joy, stronger faith, and less destructive habits.

This guide will help you build that rhythm—learning to hear God’s voice through His Word and talk with Him daily through prayer.
