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'll be looking at scriptures on the Holy Spirit and what it means to live devoted and holy. Alongside these passages we'll be reading through Psalm 119 and some of the following Psalms each day. 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.

The Holy Spirit

  • The third person of the Trinity. So the Holy Spirit is God.
  • He is the Spirit of holiness, of truth, of faith, the Counsellor who will always be with us as believers.
  • The Holy Spirit is God’s great gift to those for whom Jesus Christ is Saviour and Lord.
  • Because He lives in them, the bodies of believers have become temples of the Holy Spirit.
  • As God lives in the believer, he or she is to trust in the power of the Holy Spirit to enable the fulfillment of His will.
  • He reproduces the character of Christ within believers.
  • They are able to use spiritual gifts or express supernatural manifestations of the Spirit who lives in them.

Acts 4:23-31

A fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit23Once released, Peter and John returned to the other believers to report on all that was said to them by the chief priests and elders.24In response, the believers all prayed aloud together, thanking God by saying: "Sovereign Lord, You created the heaven, the earth, the sea and everything in them.25You spoke by the Holy Spirit through Your servant, our father David, 'Why do the nations rage? Why do the people make their own useless plans?26The kings of the earth and rulers together stand against the Lord and His Anointed One.' This is what happened here in this city.27Herod and Pontius Pilate, Gentiles and the people of Israel together, plotted against Your holy Servant Jesus, Your Anointed One.28But they were only doing what You had decided by Your power and will should happen. This was Your plan.29"But now, Lord, because You are aware of their threats, enable us as Your servants to speak Your words of truth with great boldness.30We need to see You stretch out Your hand to heal the sick and to perform more signs and wonders through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus."31After they had prayed in this way, the meeting place shook. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit again and spoke God's Word boldly.

Psalm 119:137-144

צ Tsadhe137You are righteous, Lord, and your laws are right.138The statutes you have laid down are righteous; they are fully trustworthy.139My zeal wears me out, for my enemies ignore your words.140Your promises have been thoroughly tested, and your servant loves them.141Though I am lowly and despised, I do not forget your precepts.142Your righteousness is everlasting and your law is true.143Trouble and distress have come upon me, but your commands give me delight.144Your statutes are always righteous; give me understanding that I may live.
