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 144:9-15
The testimony of king David in this latter portion of the psalm is indeed fascinating. He begins with the desire to sing a new song unto the Lord that will focus on His deliverance; He then proceeds to enumerate all the blessings that would come from such deliverance, and ends with how happy will be the people “whose God is the LORD.” How true that is! In the light of the historical conflicts in the land of Israel, it is especially enlightening to read his words in verse 11: “Rid me and deliver me from the hand of strange children whose mouth speaketh vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of falsehood.” During the Intifada uprisings, the role of children is well known. Real peace will come to the land of Israel when the Messiah, the Prince of peace, returns. Until then, our trust is in the Lord and in His deliverance.
  1. The singing of praises to the Lord – verse 9
  2. The salvation that the Lord gave to David – verse 10
  3. The strangeness of children in the land – verse 11
  4. The sons of the future who will be blessed – verse 12
  5. The supply of food and cattle will be abundant – verses 13-14
  6. The secret of happiness – verse 15
True happiness is found in our relationship to God, not in the abundance of what we possess.
Verse for Meditation:​ Verse 9 – “I will sing a new song unto Thee, O God: upon a psaltery and an instrument of ten strings will I sing praises unto Thee.”

Today's Prayer

“May the music of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord my God, and may my happiness be found only in You.”
