Daily Bible Reading – March 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word Of Prayerنموونە

  

March 31

Introduction

Today’s reading continues the people’s prayer of confession. It includes a summary of the people’s disobedience and their subsequent suffering, God’s mercy in sending them leaders and prophets, and concludes with the people agreeing to keep God’s Law. (You may wish to read Nehemiah 10:28-39 for the full account of the agreement.)

Today’s Scripture: Nehemiah 9:31b, 32a

You are a gracious and merciful God! O God, our God, how great you are!

Today’s Reading 

Nehemiah 9:26-38

Reflect

In what ways were the people rebellious and disobedient? In what ways was God merciful? In what ways have you experienced God’s mercy?

Pray

Lord God, how great you are! You are gracious and merciful. You faithfully keep your covenant promises. Order my steps this day, and may my words and actions this day be in accord with your will. Amen.
