Long ago I learned an easy Bible reading plan that preceded in depth study, and avoided confusion for new learners.
There are 31 Proverbs, one for each day of the month; start there with the Proverbs of the day.
There are 150 Psalms, follow your Proverbs reading with Psalm of the Day, then add 30, then 30 again, then 30 again and again.
First, pray and ask God to show you something. Let Him guide your thoughts.
Example: Today read Proverbs 6, Psalm 6, 36, 66, 96, 126
Somewhere in there, The Holy Spirit will likely stop you and show you a particular verse for deeper meditation. Let that verse guide your thoughts for today. Mark your Bible (underline, highlight, book mark, etc.) when you see something you want to come back to later for deeper study.
“My son, obey your father’s commands, and don’t neglect your mother’s instruction. Keep their words always in your heart. Tie them around your neck. When you walk, their counsel will lead you. When you sleep, they will protect you. When you wake up, they will advise you. For their command is a lamp and their instruction a light; their corrective discipline is the way to life.”
Proverbs 6:20-23 NLT
