Going deeper...to go further

Daily Bible reading strengthens our relationship with God, nourishes our spirits and equips us to live a fruitful, effective life for Him.

This month we're looking at meditating on and declaring God's Word. The first reading each day is about the Word and the second passage is for you to meditate and reflect upon As we read the Word it’s important that we apply what we read and pray it out over our lives. One of the way you can do this is by using the acronym SOAP. To find out more about SOAP watch this video.

Below you’ll see what we’re reading today. To go forward or back a day in our reading plan use the 'Next' and 'Previous' buttons.

Psalm 91:1-16

1Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.2I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” 3Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.4He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.5You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,6nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.7A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.8You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. 9If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling,10no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.11For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways;12they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.13You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. 14“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.15He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.16With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”

James 1:19-27

19My dear brothers, be sure to take notice of this: Everyone should be quick to listen but slow to speak or become angry.20Man's anger can never bring about the good life that God desires.21So rid yourselves of everything that is morally corrupt and the evil that is so prevalent today. Instead, accept humbly the seed of God's Word that has been planted in your heart, for this can save you.Do what the Word says22-24You deceive yourselves if you only listen to God's Word. You need to do what He says, for the person who listens to the Word but fails to act on it is like someone who sees his face in a mirror and then immediately forgets what he looks like.25By contrast, the person who takes seriously what God commands us to do enjoys freedom. He continues to obey because he does not forget what he has heard, and so is blessed in what he does.26Anyone who considers himself to be a good religious person, and yet does not keep tight control of his tongue, simply deceives himself. His religion is useless.27The kind of religious life that is accepted by God, because it is pure and genuine, is typified by those who care for orphans and widows who are in need and who refuse to allow the world to corrupt them.
