Psalmen 59:1

Do you live with regret from hasty decisions or impulsive choices? Have you ever reacted to a situation because of the pressure you felt to act? To avoid a life of destructive reaction, we must learn to watch and wait for the Lord. This divine watching and waiting is a lethal combination to defeat compulsive and impetuous decision-making. Watching for God places us in His presence, where we will be strengthened and empowered for life.

Most of us feel stressed out. A lot of us have been pushed to our mental, emotional, and physical limits. So much of life is bigger than we are—it’s out of our control. Life can leave us feeling helpless and weighed down. But being stressed out is not how God wants us to live. We’ll look at what God wants us to do with the stress we feel.

Life is filled with unexpected setbacks. Fear, failure, and resistance threaten to stall our progress and discourage our faith. But throughout the Bible, we see that when God calls someone forward, obstacles are simply part of the journey—not the end of it. In this Bible Reading Plan, explore the life of David to see how faithful obedience and trust in God’s strength enables us to keep moving forward, even when the path is blocked.

Daily Bible Reading is designed to facilitate consistent interaction with Scripture. It includes background information on each day’s Scripture passage, key verses for meditation, reflection questions to help you dive deeper into Scripture, and prayers to help you connect to God and be of spiritual support to others. Journey with us this month as we explore the theme “God’s Renewing Word of Prayer.”
