Many. Start with Joshua 1:8, II Timothy 2:15, II Tim. 4:2, II Tim. 3:16-17, and Acts 17:11.
I think if you just start reading anywhere, you'll soon bump into something that at least implies the importance of reading the Bible. But here are some more scriptures:
II Cor. 5:7 says that we should conduct ourselves by faith in the Word of God, rather than by what our senses tell us. We can't have faith in it if we don't even know what it says. We also have to have that same faith in order to please God (Hebrews 11:6). To get that faith, Romans 10:17 says to keep on and on hearing it (that's the original Greek meaning of what is simply translated "hearing" in English).
I think reading the Word is the best way to absorb the most of it the fastest. You hear it in your mind a lot faster than if you just got little pieces from someone else.
Knowing the Word is also essential to fighting temptation. Jesus overcame Satan with "It is written" three times when He went into the wilderness to be tested. Another passage that says we should do the same is Ephesians 6:10-18. The same passage is similar to II Cor. 5-7 in that it also shows that we need to keep holding to what God says about something if we want to see it change (that's the "standing" part).
1 John 5:14-15 says that to get results, we have to pray in accordance with God's will, and that we can indeed know His will -- which is by knowing his Word, and which takes us back to Joshua 1:8.

There are many, but the one that comes to my mind right now states that 'we should study to show ourselves approved unto God a workman that needeth not be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth; 2 Tim 2:15
The Bible is the Believer's Roadmap. If you don't read it everyday, you will not know what God is trying to say to you. He speaks to us through his word. He give us understanding when we read his word and direction in our lives. If we do not read the word we are like sheep on a hill without a master lost and going astray. The Word helps you for everyday living. Any question you have about anything - any situation , the Word of God has an answer. And the Holy Spirit is there to teach us and help us understand so there is no confusion.

Psalms 119:11, Ephesians 3:4, Revelation 1:3 and many more verses in the bible point to reading Gods word.
Remember that it is Gods' inspired word of truth and life. Change happens when and as we grow in Gods' word. It is the power of
His word that brings the washing of regeneration.
If you don't read, how are you going to learn about God and His ways and how to deal with situations in our lives.
HAPPY READING !

I think you're going to have a hard time finding any. None of the books of the Bible were written with the intention that they would all be compiled one day.
The source is a searchable version of several Bible editions. Good luck.

The bible has some very good ideas..... don't be dissolutioned by the bible just take the word of god as being a fabulous way to live. The church is nothing apart froma multi-billion pound industry that only has it's own intrests at heart. God is everywhere and will listen to you anytime....you don't need the Bible or the Church...read the writtings of Jesus and take his ideas as a nice way to leed your life. He is the ressurection and the light.........

well, as another person answered "Matthew 69." There are not 69 chapters in the book of Matthew.
2 Timothy 3:16-17
“All Scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
Proverbs 4:20
"My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words. "

None that i know of ? It is the churches that say that you should read the Bible,that is how they start their brainwashing of the people.If you don't believe in what they tell you they get all bent out of shape,and call you a Blasphemer,me i prefere to be a Satanist as i can do and say as i please,and no one can tell me what path i should follow,and when i am dead i will be put into the ground as
food for the millions of worms and never be heard of again as reincarnation is a state of mind,in real time it will never happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!
