Daily Bible Reading, December 2022: God’s Renewing Word of JoySample
December 27
Introduction
The testimony of the John the Baptist leads his disciples to follow Jesus, and they spend the day with him. Jesus goes to Galilee and calls Andrew, Simon Peter, Philip, and Nathanael to follow him.
Scripture Reading
John 1:35-51
Today’s Key Verse: John 1:41b
[Andrew said:] “We have found the Messiah.”
Reflect
How does John describe Jesus (verse 36)? How does Andrew describe him (verse 41)? What does Philip say about Jesus (verse 45)? What do you think prompted Nathanael’s bold confession (verse 49)? If someone were to ask you to describe Jesus, what would you say?
Pray
Lord Jesus, you are the Messiah, the Son of God and the King of Israel. Thank you for calling me to follow you. Guide my thoughts, actions, and steps this day. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Luke 2:21-38: Jesus is presented in the Temple.
