Daily Bible Reading— October 2024, God’s Guiding Word: Justice and Peace

DAY 1 OF 31

October 1

Introduction

Psalm 7: In this psalm, the writer appeals to God for justice after being falsely accused. The writer expresses confidence in God’s righteousness, and the psalm concludes with an affirmation that the wicked will be punished and God’s justice will triumph.

Today’s Key Verse: Psalm 7:17

I thank the LORD for his justice; I sing praises to the LORD, the Most High.

Reflect

What does the psalm writer ask of God? Is the writer seeking revenge or justice—or both? Have you ever experienced a time when you sought God’s justice? If so, what took place?

Pray

Righteous God, you are the judge of all people. You know my inmost thoughts. Forgive me when I stray from your teachings and act in ways that displease you. Order my steps this day and guide me in the way of your truth. I praise you, Lord Most High, for your mercy and steadfast love. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Psalm 9: A psalm in praise of God’s justice.
