Daily Bible Reading – May 2023, God’s Saving Word: Faithنموونە

May 31

Introduction

Philip encounters an Ethiopian official who was returning home from Jerusalem and who was reading from the book of the prophet Isaiah. Philip explains the meaning of the passage and tells him the Good News about Jesus. They come upon a body of water, and the Ethiopian asks Philip to baptize him.

Scripture Reading

Acts 8:26-40

Today’s Key Verse: Acts 8:38

The official ordered the carriage to stop, and both Philip and the official went down into the water, and Philip baptized him.

Reflect

What happened when Philip explained the Good News about Jesus to the Ethiopian official? Have you ever told anyone about Jesus? If so, what did you say and how did the person react?

Pray

Lord God, your Spirit fills me with joy. Empower me to share the Good News about Jesus and your saving love for all people. Amen.
