Thank you for visiting e-devotional. Many years ago, a mentor of mine told me that when he really wanted to learn what God had to say about a subject, he would read through the entire Bible with the mindset of seeing what God had to say about that subject. This mentor would keep a pad of paper beside his Bible and whenever the scriptures touched upon that subject, he would jot down a few notes. This mentor told me that he received more from the reading of God’s Word because he was always actively reading the Bible rather than passively reading the Bible.
In E-devotional, you have the opportunity to read the devotionals that God brings to my heart as I have been following the example of my mentor. Every year, starting on September 1st, I will start on a new journey of seeing what lessons that God has for me upon a particular topic. In September 2005, God started me on an eight year journey that covers the eight precious promises that HE has commanded us to add to our lives as found in 2 Peter 1:4-8.
