Daily Bible Reading – April 2023 God’s Saving Word: Hope

DAY 9 OF 30

April 9

Introduction

An angel rolls the stone from the tomb, revealing that Jesus has been raised to life. The women rush to tell the disciples; and on the way, they meet the risen Christ. Later, Jesus appears to his disciples on a hill in Galilee, calling them to go forth and make disciples of all people.

Scripture Reading

Matthew 28:1-20

Today’s Key Verse:Matthew 28:20b

[Jesus said,] “And I will be with you always, to the end of the age.”

Reflect

The risen Christ appears first to the women. What does he say to them? Jesus commands his followers to make disciples of all people. In what ways do you carry out Jesus’s command? In what ways can you be an extension of Jesus’s love to others?

Pray

Alleluia! Christ is risen! He is risen indeed! I thank and praise you, Lord God, for Jesus’s resurrection and the hope that he offers. Send me forth to make disciples, showing Christ’s love to all people. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

1 Corinthians 15:1-11: The apostle Paul teaches about the resurrection of Christ.
