Today's Bible Reading

​January 25

Old Testament
Genesis 50  —  7.0 minutes
Psalms 23  —  1.5 minutes

New Testament
Matthew 10:1-20  —  4.5 minutes
Acts 15:1-21  —  5.5 minutes

Total Average Read Time — 18.5 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 16:1-6
Trusting the Lord is crucial to the way the Lord deals with us. His protection, goodness, blessings, etc., are given to those “saints” who walk in faith and obedience to the Lord. The Lord delights in His servants, and seeks their good and blessing.

1. The preservation for which he prays – verse 1
2. The provision of the Lord’s goodness – verses 2-3
3. The perils we face for idolatry – verse 4
4. The place which the Lord has in his heart – verse 5
5. The pleasure which the Lord gives – verse 6

David said, “The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance.” A beautiful way to express the centrality and priority of the Lord in one’s life. Is that how you feel?
Verse for Meditation:​ Verse 1 – “Preserve me O God: for in Thee do I put my trust.”
