Today's Bible Reading

September 6, 2020
Today's Bible Reading Plan selections can be found below. If you don't have a Bible with you, just click the references to read each passage online:

Old Testament
Isaiah 14-16  —  8.0 minutes
Proverbs 21:1-16  —  3.0 minutes

New Testament
Luke 22:1-13  —  2.5 minutes
Hebrews 4:1-11  —  3.0 minutes

Total Average Read Time — 16.5 minutes

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

Psalm 105:13-22
The history of Israel is replete with examples of how God took care of His people. One of those remarkable times was the famine that brought the family of Jacob to Egypt. The sons of Jacob had mistreated their brother, Joseph, and sold him into slavery, due to their jealousy and envy of how their father honored him. God had it all planned – Genesis 50:20 records the words of Joseph to his brothers: “But as for you, ye thought evil against me, but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.” We don’t always understand what God is doing, but He is working all things for our good and His glory – we can count on that (Romans 8:28).

1. Their presence in other nations – verse 13
2. The protection of the Lord – verses 14-15
3. The plan behind the famine – verse 16
4. The person God used – verse 17
5. The punishment he endured – verse 18
6. The position that the Lord gave him – verses 19-22

It may seem at times that the Lord has forsaken us, but don’t believe a word of it! The Lord is working His plan in our lives and He has only good in mind for us.
Verse for Meditation: Verse 19 – “Until the time that His word came: the word of the LORD tried him.”
