This reading plan will make it easy and fun for you to read through the entire Bible this year. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
  • Although the plan begins with January, you can begin at any time during the year.
  • Each month’s readings are based on 25 days worth of readings, which means you get several free days if you ever fall behind. This makes reaching your goal a lot more possible!
  • Each day’s readings will include selections from both the Old and New Testament, reinforcing the incredible unity of the Scriptures. Perhaps most important, you will focus daily on the life of Jesus by reading a portion of one of the Gospels every single day of the year.
May God bless you as you open His precious Word each day, and remember to pray for His guidance in your study. It is our desire that you will become increasingly changed into His likeness by beholding the Lord through His Word.

Today's Meditation - Psalms

Read Psalm 51:7-13
There is nothing more wonderful than having a clean heart. David realized that he needed to be cleansed by God if he was to restore the joy of his salvation and to once again have an influence upon others. How we need to learn that lesson! The agony of unconfessed sin and the refusal to repent can lead to great misery and pain both emotionally, physically, as well as spiritually.
  1. The purging of his sin – verse 7
  2. The plea for the restoration of joy – verse 8
  3. The part which he knew God must do – verse 9
  4. The prayer for a clean heart – verse 10
  5. The presence of the Lord that was so needed in his heart – verse 11
  6. The power of the Lord’s restoration – verse 12
  7. The proclamation of God’s message – verse 13
Open your eyes to this truth – God uses clean hearts and right spirits!
Verse for Meditation: Verse 10 – “Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.”

Today's Prayer

“Lord, I acknowledge my sin and humbly ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing.”
Prayer Center     
     As Christians, we are called to pray for God’s guidance and wisdom. We feel it is more imperative than ever for believers to stand together in prayerful unity as the world continues on a downward spiral toward the Tribulation hour. Calamity causes people to waste huge amounts of time fixated on watching the destruction instead of praying for protection and God’s miraculous interventions.

The Bible is filled with verses encouraging us to stay focused on praying for God’s will for our lives; for the safety and wellbeing of our families, ministries and leaders; for the spiritual awakening of the unsaved so they to come to true salvation in Christ; and of course for one another and anything that the Lord places upon our hearts.
    Up to the final moments of our days on earth, until the day of the Rapture of the Church, we are dedicated to be prayer warriors for the cause of Christ. Each Monday we publish prayer needs and invite fellow believers to pray.
