Daily Bible Reading – May 2023, God’s Saving Word: FaithMuestra
May 19
Introduction
The apostles meet and pray with other believers. Peter acts as spokesman for the community, and the apostles proceed to choose a successor to Judas.
Scripture Reading
Acts 1:12-26
Today’s Key Verse: Acts 1:14a
They gathered frequently to pray as a group.
Reflect
Reread verses 21-22. What were the qualifications for someone to succeed Judas as an apostle? How was the successor chosen? How does your community of faith set apart those who are called to serve in the church?
Pray
Almighty God, empower me to share the Good News of your love and salvation with those I meet today and to serve you always. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Ephesians 1:1-23: The apostle Paul describes spiritual blessings.
