Today's Bible Reading

February 26

​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 30:7-12
The Lord can take the moments of “mourning” and give us reason to “dance” and be “girded” with “gladness.” As David expresses, it is the Lord Who is our “helper” (v. 10).

1. His concern before the Lord – verse 7
2. His cry to the Lord – verse 8
3. His conclusion about what would happen if he died – verse 9
4. His call for God’s mercy and help – verse 10
5. His commitment to praise and thank the Lord – verses 11-12

Instead of complaining, we need to be thanking the Lord; instead of being depressed, we need to praise the Lord! Why not start right now?
Verse for Meditation: Verse 12 – “To the end that my glory may sing praise to Thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto Thee for ever.”
