Or if this is your first time here, hi and welcome to my blog, where we talk about faith and freedom!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Are you looking for some extra encouragement in your daily Bible readings? Enjoy monthly topical studies? Or just don\u2019t know where to start reading and need a little bit of a guide? Then this post is for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>See below to download a free monthly Bible reading plan to supplement your time in the Word.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Before You Start<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Remember to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Pray for the Holy Spirit&#8217;s guidance before you read.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Take your time with each verse.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Be careful not to simply rush through the reading to &#8220;check-off&#8221; your time with God on your to-do list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Apply Scripture to your life.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:18px\">Trust the Holy Spirit to bring understanding and wisdom as you read.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">We are to meditate, which means to roll something over and over in your mind, on scripture and focusing on one verse a day is a good place to start if you struggle to keep your mind focused on the Word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Use The Plan At Any Time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Each reading plan has 30-31 verses to cover each day of the month, but a specific month name was left off the downloadable plan so that you can use it anytime or come back to it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Topic Of The Month<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile is-vertically-aligned-center is-style-default\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 32%\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Of course, since this is the first topical study we\u2019re delving into together here, our topic has to be about freedom! The verses curated for the August reading plan cover a range of freedom-related concepts. Including the freedom Christ offers, the freedoms available to you as a believer, and the freedoms we are directed to walk in as God\u2019s ambassadors.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"791\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/ellagrace.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Aug-Monthly-Reading-List-Freedom-791x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-138 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ellagrace.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Aug-Monthly-Reading-List-Freedom-791x1024.png 791w, https:\/\/ellagrace.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Aug-Monthly-Reading-List-Freedom-232x300.png 232w, https:\/\/ellagrace.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Aug-Monthly-Reading-List-Freedom-768x994.png 768w, https:\/\/ellagrace.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Aug-Monthly-Reading-List-Freedom-1187x1536.png 1187w, https:\/\/ellagrace.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Aug-Monthly-Reading-List-Freedom.png 1545w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Download HERE!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1Z0EbETc2XSgjOJaoFHkXBenuvbrqbfLm\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download Reading Plan<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:24px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\"><strong>Monthly Bible Reading Plans<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">This post is part of a series of topical Bible reading plans that are posted at the beginning of every month.
