April 29

Today's Reading

Judges. Will the current difficult times in our nation cause people to put aside their false gods and turn to the Lord? I hope so!

Luke. It's hard to read this passage without feeling the passion Jesus was giving His followers to tell others about Him. His explanation of the Old Testament Scriptures on the Emmaus Road would help prepare them for declaring Him as Messiah to the Jews. His promise of forgiveness for all who repent and believe in Him reaches down to us 2,000 years later. "O, Lord Jesus, may we see with our own eyes a renewed power of the Gospel with thousands turning to You!"

Psalms 100 is an awesome call to worship!

Proverbs. The promise that the godly will flourish means a lot to me in hard times. How about you?

If you have been behind in your reading, I encourage you to leap ahead and join us where we currently are. Some people have to work on this process for several years before they can make it all the way through.

In the meantime, what are your comments? Your questions?

  1. I began to see Jesus' crucifixion from his followers perspective when they said, "We had hoped he was the Messiah who had come to rescue Israel." This verse gave me an idea of the despair and confusion they must have felt.
