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 focusing on verses about building and growing in faith. 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.

Faith

  • We come into a living and vital relationship with God through faith in all that Jesus Christ has done in His cross and resurrection.
  • Trust in God without which it is impossible to please Him.
  • Jesus exercised faith during His ministry and taught His disciples to live by faith.
  • Faith is an on-going, personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
  • Faith is believing God’s Word and therefore putting it into practice, and trusting the Holy Spirit to be our enabler in every situation.
  • Many rewards come through such a faith.

Luke 5:1-11

Simon Peter to fish for men1On one occasion, Jesus was standing on the shore of the Sea of Galilee and the people were pressing close to Him to hear God's Word.2He noticed two boats left at the water's edge by the fishermen who were cleaning their nets.3He boarded the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to push away from the shore. Then Jesus taught the people as He sat in the boat.4When He had finished speaking, He told Simon: "Row out into deeper water and cast your nets for a catch."5"Master," Simon answered, "we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But I will let down the nets again only because You say so."6Having done so, the catch was so great that the nets were in danger of tearing.7So they called to their partners in the other boat to come to their aid. When they did, they filled both boats so full that they began to sink.8Seeing this, Simon Peter fell to his knees before Jesus and said: "Please forgive me, Lord; for I am such a sinner."9-10He and all his crew were amazed at the size of the catch, as were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. Then Jesus replied to Simon: "There is nothing to fear; in the future you will be catching men!"11So they beached their boats, left everything and followed Jesus.

John 2:1-11

Jesus turns water into wine1-2Three days later, Jesus, together with His mother and disciples, was invited to a wedding that took place at Cana in Galilee.3The wine ran out, which was a social disaster, and so Jesus' mother said to Him: "They have no more wine."4"Dear woman, why involve Me in such a matter? It is not time for Me yet," Jesus replied.5However His mother told the servants: "Do whatever He tells you."6Six large water jars, each holding between twenty and thirty gallons, were standing nearby. These were normally used for the ceremonial washing that Jews performed.7"Fill the jars with water," Jesus told the servants. They did so, filling them to the brim.8-10"Now draw some out and give it to the master in charge of the banquet to taste," Jesus told them. They did this and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had now been turned into wine. Although the servants knew its origin, the master had no idea where it had come from. After tasting it, he took the bridegroom aside and said to him: "People usually serve the choicest wine first and then, when the guests have drunk well, they serve the cheaper wine. But you have kept the best back until now!"11This miracle that Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee was the first of the miraculous signs that revealed His glory, and His disciples put their faith in Him as a result.
