Today's Bible Reading

November 16, 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
Ezekiel 40-41  —  8.0 minutes
Job 15:1-16  —  2.5 minutes
​
New Testament
John 11:38-44  —  2.0 minutes
1 John 3:19-24  —  1.5 minutes

Total Average Read Time — 14.0 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 122:5-9
Jerusalem is the city of God. It was first called “Salem” in Genesis 14:18 and its first king was named “Melchizedek” whose name means “king of righteousness.” No doubt it was (cf. Hebrews 7:1-10) an appearance of our Messiah to our father Abraham. Psalm 76:2 also calls it “Salem.” We are reminded in this latter half of the chapter that it is also the place for the “thrones of the house of David.” The Messiah will one day sit on the throne of His father, David, and rule the entire world. The emphasis of this section is on the meaning of the city’s name – the city of “peace.”
  1. The prayer for the city – verse 5
  2. The peace which should characterize the city – verses 7-8
  3. The purpose of the believer toward the city – verse 9
Like the city itself, many of us lack peace. When we become believers, we have the “peace with God” because we have been “justified by faith” (Romans 5:1). Believers who take their prayer requests to the Lord and pray with thanksgiving in their hearts, are promised the “peace of God.” The “Prince of Peace” will one day bring peace to this world, but until then, we need peace in our hearts.
Verse for Meditation:​ Verse 9 – “Because of the house of the LORD our God I will seek thy good.”

Today's Prayer

“Thank You, for Your peace, O Lord, and for reminding me that real peace on this earth will not come until our Messiah returns.”
