Today's Bible Reading

Our Bible Reading Plan runs from the 1st to the 25th of each month.

​The next reading will be on the 1st of next month. Check back then!

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 119:33-40
The Hebrew letter that begins this section is he, and appears most frequently as the definite article “the.” This portion of the psalm ends in verse 40 with the word “quicken.” Like the previous section, it is a word closely resembling our word for “revival.” There are warnings here about what leads us away from the Lord as well as admonitions that will bring us back to the Lord. Again, we cannot overemphasize the importance of God’s Word in reviving our hearts and turning our eyes away from that which is destructive and putting them back on the Lord and His Word. Ask the Lord to “revive” your heart today. The true meaning of revival includes the following:

1. It means you are committed to obeying the Word all the days of your life – verses 33-35 (1) Notice the three requests. (2) Notice the three responses.
2. It means you are convicted about sinful desires and meaningless activities – verses 36-37
3. It means you are concerned about your reputation and testimony – verses 38-39
4. It means you are controlled by God’s standards – verse 40

Revival means you have turned away from sin and turned to God and His Word. There is a hunger to learn God’s Word, and a new desire to walk in the ways of the Lord.
Verse for Meditation:​ Verse 34 – “Give me understanding, and I shall keep Thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.”
