Day 343 Bible Readings - Zechariah 10:1 (ESV)

Zechariah 9-11, Revelation 1, Proverbs 24:5-14

Zechariah 10:1 (ESV)

“Ask rain from the Lord in the season of the spring rain, from the Lord who makes the storm clouds, and he will give them showers of rain, to everyone the vegetation in the field.”

In Zechariah 10:1, the Old Testament prophet Zechariah instructed the people who had returned from Babylonian exile to ask God the Father for provision and blessing. The ancient Israelites depended on rain for their survival and prosperity, so Zechariah urged them to seek rain from the Lord. Because they had a covenant relationship with God, obedience to Him would bring blessing—including the rain they desperately needed. Zechariah reminded them that the Lord controls the natural world and that they must depend on Him for everything.

I love this verse because it reminds me that, as a believer in Jesus Christ, I depend on God the Father for all my needs. When I place my faith in the Lord’s promises and trust that He will provide, I can pray boldly and ask Him for whatever I lack. Father-God is sovereign and rules over all creation, and I can expect His provision—sometimes in ways that feel miraculous. Through my faith in Jesus Christ, I am in covenant relationship with Him, and when I walk in obedience, I receive His blessings.

If this verse resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One you can depend on for all your needs—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him through the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

If you prayed this prayer, welcome to the family of Father-God! I encourage you to find and join a Holy Spirit-filled, full-Gospel, Bible-based church where you can grow in your faith and experience the Lord’s love, signs, wonders, and miracles in your life.

Day 342 Bible Readings - Jude 1:20-21 (ESV)

Zechariah 5-8, Jude 1:1-25, Proverbs 23:29-35, Proverbs 24:1-4

Jude 1:20-21 (ESV)

“But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.”

In Jude 1:20–21, the author urges believers to focus on their walk with the Lord. At the time Jude wrote his letter, the church faced threats from false believers who caused division. Jude instructed Christians to keep building on their faith by studying Scripture, practicing spiritual disciplines, and remaining in fellowship with other believers. He emphasized that each believer is responsible for their own spiritual growth. Allowing the Holy Spirit to guide and empower our prayers is another way we remain in communication with the Lord. Jude also encouraged believers to contend for their faith and live in anticipation of Christ’s return. When believers place their hope in the promise of eternal life with God the Father, they guard themselves against false teachings that may creep into the church.

Jude’s counsel applies just as strongly today. On social media, in television, and in film there are people who claim to be believers yet question the foundations of faith. Some claim books were omitted from the biblical canon, or that the miracles performed by the apostles after Christ’s resurrection are no longer valid. But if we believe Father-God is sovereign over all things, then Scripture was preserved under the direction of the Holy Spirit. Miracles did not end with the first-century church; God still works through pastors and ministries today.

In my daily Bible study, I enjoy comparing different translations to see how various committees render a verse. The King James Version reflects the language of its time, while the New Living Translation offers a modern, clear reading style for today’s believers. I have seen medical miracles through pastors who ministered in the power of the Holy Spirit—events that defy explanation. If you want to see whether miracles still occur, attend a crusade, visit a revival service, or find a church where a pastor is holding a healing service. Witness it for yourself rather than relying on skeptics. Whatever you do, focus on deepening your relationship with the Lord, and allow the Holy Spirit to give you discernment against false teachings promoted in media, entertainment, and online platforms.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who will give you discernment to guard against deception—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 341 Bible Readings - Zechariah 4:6-7 (ESV)

Zechariah 1-4, 3 John 1, Proverbs 23:19-28

Zechariah 4:6-7 (ESV)

“Then he said to me, “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts. Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel, you shall become a plain. And he shall bring forward the top stone amid shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”

In Zechariah 4:6–7, the prophet Zechariah delivers a message from the Lord to Zerubbabel, the governor of Judah. Zerubbabel was a central figure in rebuilding the temple after the Babylonian exile. The message reminded him not to rely on human strength or force to accomplish God’s work. To fulfill the Lord’s purposes, he needed to depend on the Spirit of Father-God—the true source of power and success. When we trust the Holy Spirit, we overcome fear and doubt that arise when we rely on ourselves or others. God the Father can turn a mountain into a plain, meaning He is able to remove any obstacle that stands in the way of His purposes. When we trust in Him, He will faithfully complete the work He assigns to us.

These verses remind me that I cannot accomplish anything by my own efforts or the help of people alone. I need the guidance of the Holy Spirit to find success in life. The Lord provides what I need to fulfill His purposes. Father-God walks with me in my challenges and helps me overcome fear and doubt. He will remove any obstacle that hinders His plans for me. Finally, these verses assure me that God the Father is faithful to complete the work He began in me.

I know the Lord is with me in my goal of writing a novel. I rely on the Holy Spirit’s guidance to choose the right tools and bring my story to life for readers. And I know without Father-God, I cannot finish this novel in a way that prepares it for publication.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who will help you accomplish the purposes He placed in your life—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 340 Bible Readings for December 7 - Haggai 1:5-6 (ESV)

Haggai 1-2, 2 John 1, Proverbs 23:10-18

Haggai 1:5-6 (ESV)

“Now, therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts: Consider your ways. You have sown much, and harvested little. You eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm. And he who earns wages does so to put them into a bag with holes.”

In Haggai 1:5–6, the prophet Haggai warned the Hebrew people about the consequences of failing to prioritize God’s commands. After returning from Babylonian exile, the Jews began rebuilding the temple but abandoned the project after only two years. For the next fourteen years they left the temple unfinished. Haggai reminded them of the scarcity they experienced because of their disobedience: they never had enough food or drink; their clothing failed to keep them warm; and their wages disappeared quickly. Without the blessing of God the Father, they faced both material and spiritual lack because they neglected the Lord’s command to rebuild His house.

Haggai’s prophetic message echoes an experience in my own life. When I focused on building comfort and security for myself, I felt as though I was running on a treadmill. No matter how much money I earned, it never felt like enough. Discontentment became familiar. Nothing came easily, and I constantly worried about losing what I had worked to obtain.

When I returned to listening to the Holy Spirit and sought what Father-God wanted for me, small blessings began to appear. The Holy Spirit showed me that I had more than enough to meet my needs and even fulfill many desires. Stewardship of my resources is now something I intentionally cultivate, and I sow into the work of those who are faithfully doing what God has asked believers to do. As I strive to obey the Lord’s plan for my life, I feel momentum instead of stagnation. Most importantly, I experience peace and contentment every day.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who brings peace and contentment—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 339 Bible Readings for December 6 - Proverbs 23:1-3 (ESV)

Daniel 12, 1 John 5, Proverbs 23:1-9

Proverbs 23:1-3 (ESV)

"When you sit down to eat with a ruler, observe carefully what is before you, and put a knife to your throat if you are given to appetite. Do not desire his delicacies, for they are deceptive food."

In Proverbs 23:1–3, Solomon reminds believers to be cautious when dining with powerful people, such as kings or leaders. A believer should exercise discernment because what is set before them represents more than food—it may carry motives, expectations, or influence. The believer must consider why they were invited and what implications may follow. Solomon urges believers to seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance in navigating these encounters. The phrase “put a knife to your throat” symbolizes self-control. Believers may face temptation, so they must maintain discipline and integrity, ensuring their thoughts and actions remain aligned with their faith.

These verses apply not only to interactions with powerful individuals but also to modern life, where believers are surrounded by entertainment and social media that parade the lifestyles of the wealthy. Society encourages us to desire what the rich have—to imitate how they live, dress, and travel, as if becoming like them is essential to success. This desire can quietly lead a believer into sin.

I experienced this when I pursued promotion in my career. I studied how executives spoke, dressed, and behaved, believing imitation was necessary for advancement. That is what business books suggest. But along the way I also noticed greed, selfishness, and ruthlessness among those I was trying to emulate. I began to question whether I was becoming like them. The Holy Spirit’s answer was always no. Yet the questioning created stress and robbed me of peace. Only by returning to my faith did I find peace again.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who can give you a life filled with peace—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 338 Bible Readings – 1 John 4:13-15 (ESV)

Daniel 11, 1 John 4:7-21, Proverbs 22:17-29

1 John 4:13-15 (ESV)

“By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.”

In 1 John 4:13–15, the apostle John explains how believers can know they have a relationship with God the Father. We receive the Holy Spirit from Christ as evidence of the Lord’s presence within us. The Holy Spirit deepens our relationship with Father-God. John affirms this truth because he was a disciple of Christ and among the first to receive the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. He also teaches that those who believe in Christ enter into relationship with God the Father.

Last night in my journal, I reflected that the greatest blessing I have experienced since joining my Holy Spirit-filled church is waking up each morning sensing the presence and love of the Lord in my life. It is not the only benefit I have received, but it is the one I treasure most. Feeling Father-God’s love each day fills me with joy—an indescribable peace I will protect at any cost. I am also grateful for the Holy Spirit’s guidance—to lead me, confront me, and correct me when needed. My relationship with the Lord has allowed me to discern what I believe to be my soul’s purpose. I now understand why Father-God created me and how I can participate in His plan to redeem the world. Having a relationship with the Lord is an astonishing gift, and I long for everyone to experience it.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, whose love brings joy and purpose—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation.

Day 337 Bible Readings - Daniel 9:25-26 (ESV)

Daniel 9-10, 1 John 4:1-6, Proverbs 22:7-16

Daniel 9:25-26 (ESV)

“Know therefore and understand that from the going out of the word to restore and build Jerusalem to the coming of an anointed one, a prince, there shall be seven weeks. And for sixty-two weeks it shall be built again with squares and moat, but in a troubled time. And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off and shall have nothing. And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.”

In Daniel 9:25–26, we read another prophecy about the coming of Jesus Christ. The angel Gabriel told Daniel that an “anointed one” would appear after the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem. Gabriel also revealed that this “anointed one shall be cut off and have nothing.” Biblical scholars commonly interpret “cut off” to mean execution—fulfilled in the crucifixion of Christ. The King James Version of verse 26 states that the “Messiah be cut off, but not for himself.” The people rejected Christ, and He died without earthly possessions.

This prophetic vision of Christ and His mission in the Old Testament gives me hope that Father-God is sovereign over all events on earth and that I can trust in His plan. These verses also remind me of God’s faithfulness, for Christ fulfilled this prophecy given to Daniel. Because Daniel’s prophetic vision came to pass, it assures me that the prophetic visions in the New Testament will also come true. The Lord would not have permitted their writing unless they were genuine glimpses of what is to come. While I may not fully understand all the end-time prophecies, they fill me with hope for the return of Jesus Christ, who will bring peace and restoration to the world. They also assure me that the Lord’s plan for my life will unfold in His timing and that His promise of a blessed life is something I can trust.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who has a plan for your life and offers you a blessed future—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 336 Bible Readings – 1 John 3:14-15 (ESV)

Daniel 8, 1 John 3:11-24, Proverbs 21:27-31, Proverbs 22:1-6

1 John 3:14-15 (ESV)

“We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.”

In 1 John 3:14–15, the apostle John teaches that love for fellow believers is evidence of being born again through faith in Jesus Christ. When believers choose to love others, they reflect Christ’s love for the world and their connection to His nature. John equates hatred with murder—just as Jesus did in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:21–22), where He compared anger to murder. John emphasizes that harboring hatred in one’s heart reveals that Christ is not abiding in that person.

These verses remind me of a conversation I had yesterday with a friend. She had been spending time with people who seem to have an irrational hatred toward our current president. We both found their hatred unsettling because they do not know him personally, and they cannot change his behavior. Their hostility is so intense that they speak about it constantly, even when politics has nothing to do with the conversation. Such hatred feels bewildering. How can someone hate a person they have never met? How does such hatred dominate their thoughts to the point that they share it with everyone, regardless of context?

These verses from John remind me that if these individuals had Christ dwelling within them, irrational and consuming hatred would have no place in their lives. Disagreement is natural, but it must never grow into a consuming bitterness that shapes every conversation. In John’s metaphor, hatred is a form of murder—meaning these individuals are carrying that burden continually. I cannot imagine the toll this level of hatred must take on their minds, their health, and their souls. My Christian rebirth prevents hatred from ruling my thoughts or shaping my existence. Because of my relationship with the Lord, love guides my actions. My life is filled with peace, blessings, and gratitude—free from ill will toward strangers.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel moved to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who will guard your heart against hatred—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 335 Bible Readings - 1 John 3:5-6 (ESV)

Daniel 7, 1 John 3:1-10, Proverbs 21:17-26

1 John 3:5-6 (ESV)

“You know that he appeared in order to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him.”

In 1 John 3:5–6, the apostle John wrote to a community of believers facing false teachings about the transformative power of Jesus Christ. Christ came—crucified and resurrected—to take away the sin of mankind. He could accomplish this work only because He was the divine, sinless Son of God. John reaffirmed Christ’s divinity to counter teachings that denied His sinless nature and His sacrifice. He reminded believers that when they are born again in Christ, they can rely on His transforming power to help them turn away from sin. To abide in Christ means to maintain an ongoing, faithful relationship with Him. John teaches that when believers truly know Christ, they begin to reflect His character. Through the Holy Spirit, believers receive strength to overcome their sinful nature. John also asserts that those who have genuine faith in Christ will not continue in habitual sin.

This year, I have put these verses into practice. I follow a yearly Bible reading plan and write a daily reflection on the passages I read. Listening to sermons from full-gospel, Holy Spirit–filled preachers fills my days and nights. Every morning, I praise Father-God for the love and blessings He has shown me. These practices have kept me focused on the Lord. And when I do sin, I repent immediately and ask Father-God to forgive me. But the greatest change in my life has been a deeper relationship with God the Father. The Lord has never felt more alive to me, and this has exponentially increased my peace and joy.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who can become alive to you and give you lasting peace and joy—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the following prayer and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 334 Bible Readings - I John 1:5-7 (ESV)

Daniel 5:17-31, Daniel 6, 1 John 1-2, Proverbs 21:1-16

I John 1:5-7 (ESV)

“This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.”

In John 1:5–7, the disciple John reminds believers that the Lord is like light, shining into and overcoming the darkness. He teaches that if we have a relationship with God the Father, we cannot continue living in darkness and sin. John assures us that walking in the light is possible. When we obey Father-God and live in a way that reflects His character, we enjoy fellowship with Him. And when we have fellowship with other believers, we find mutual encouragement to follow Christ’s example and teachings. Because we are born again, Christ has transformed us from the inside out and given us the Holy Spirit to strengthen our fellowship with Him.

These verses moved me to tears. I see Christ as the light in my life—the One who removed the darkness and continues to shine into the hidden places of my heart. Lately, the Holy Spirit has been prompting me to reflect the Lord’s light to the world in every way I can. I feel as though this year marks the first year of a five-year revival cycle, during which we will see God move powerfully in our generation. It feels more important than ever for believers to reflect Father-God’s light in the coming years and ride the wave of revival so more people can come to Him. People need the Lord’s transforming power in their lives; they need Father-God’s light. They long for fellowship with Him and the support of other believers to strengthen their walk with Christ. I want everyone to experience Christ’s transforming power and to see how His light can break through the darkness in their lives.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, whose light can transform your world—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 333 Bible Readings – Daniel 5:5-6 (ESV)

Daniel 4:19-37, Daniel 5:1-16, 2 Peter 3, Proverbs 20:25-30

Daniel 5:5-6 (ESV)

“ Immediately the fingers of a human hand appeared and wrote on the plaster of the wall of the king's palace, opposite the lampstand. And the king saw the hand as it wrote. Then the king's color changed, and his thoughts alarmed him; his limbs gave way, and his knees knocked together.”

In Daniel 5:5–6, we come across the story that gave us the phrase “the handwriting on the wall.” King Belshazzar was throwing a huge party, and in the middle of it he decided to use the gold and silver cups that his father, King Nebuchadnezzar, had taken from the temple in Jerusalem. These were sacred vessels, set apart for worshiping God, but Belshazzar treated them like ordinary party dishes.In response, God sent a supernatural sign. A mysterious hand appeared and began writing on the wall of the palace. It terrified the king so badly that his legs gave out and his knees started knocking together. He had no idea what the writing meant, but he knew it wasn’t good.

Daniel later explained the message: God was bringing Belshazzar’s reign to an end, and his kingdom would be divided. And that’s exactly what happened. Belshazzar died that very night.

It’s funny, people still use the phrase “the handwriting on the wall” to mean a clear warning that something bad is coming, but most don’t realize it comes from this story in Daniel. No one today expects a literal hand to start writing on their wall, but we all know what it feels like when a situation has that sense of “uh-oh, something’s about to happen.” What usually gets forgotten is why the handwriting appeared in the first place: Belshazzar showed total disrespect for the things of God. The miracle was so dramatic that it became the part everyone remembered.

For us as believers, this story is a reminder that God does see when people mock Him or treat holy things carelessly. His justice is real, and His judgment is certain—even when people don’t believe in Him. God isn’t indifferent to disrespect or injustice.

If these verses speak to you—if you feel drawn to put your trust in Jesus Christ, who rules over everything with perfect justice—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, talk to Him through the prayer below, and tell Him you trust Him. Invite Him into your life. He’s faithful, and He will meet you right where you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation.

Day 332 Bible Readings for November 29 - Daniel 3:24-25 (ESV)

Daniel 3:13-30, Daniel 4:1-18, 2 Peter 2, Proverbs 20:15-24

Daniel 3:24-25 (ESV)

“Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished and rose up in haste. He declared to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the fire?” They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.” He answered and said, “But I see four men unbound, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are not hurt; and the appearance of the fourth is like a son of the gods.””

In Daniel 3:24–25, we read what happened when King Nebuchadnezzar ordered Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego into the fiery furnace after they refused to worship the golden image he had set up. As the king watched, he saw a fourth figure standing in the fire with them. Not only was there a fourth man, but all four appeared to be walking freely and were completely unbound.

I’ve always loved these verses that reveal how the Lord is present with His people in the midst of the fire. When the three Hebrew boys came out of the furnace, Scripture says they didn’t even smell like smoke—there was no sign that the flames had touched them. There have been countless sermons preached on this passage, and I doubt my reflections add anything new to what many believers have already shared.

Instead, I want to honor these verses by sharing my favorite worship song that celebrates the “fourth man in the fire”: “Trust in God” by Elevation Worship.” Enjoy!

If these verses—and this song—resonate with you, and you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who is always with His people during their most difficult moments, this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 331 Bible Readings for November 28 - 2 Peter 1:16-18 (ESV)

Daniel 2:24-49, Daniel 3:1-12, 2 Peter 1, Proverbs 20:5-14

2 Peter 1:16-18 (ESV)

“For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For when he received honor and glory from God the Father, and the voice was borne to him by the Majestic Glory, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased,” we ourselves heard this very voice borne from heaven, for we were with him on the holy mountain.”

In 2 Peter 1:16–18, Peter tells believers that the stories of Jesus Christ are not myths or products of human imagination. The apostles’ teachings were based on their direct experience and eyewitness accounts. Peter then refers to the transfiguration, when he, James, and John heard the Lord affirm Christ as His Son. In that moment, they received a divine revelation directly from Father-God. Peter reassured believers that the authentic, firsthand teachings of Jesus Christ were the solid foundation of their faith.

Peter wrote this letter to believers in the Greco-Roman world, where myths and fables were a normal part of religious life. Today, we face almost the opposite problem: instead of believing every myth, many people doubt the authenticity of Christ and His teachings. Yet historians, archaeologists, and scholars continue to research the life of Jesus, and instead of disproving the Bible, their work repeatedly confirms that Christ, Peter, and the disciples were real historical figures.

We also see the continuation of the miraculous works that began in Jesus’s ministry. The apostles performed miracles through the power Christ gave them, and many believers testify that miracles still occur today. I have personally witnessed medical healings after pastors prayed for those in need. Christ performed many miracles during His life and then passed that authority first to His disciples, like Peter, and then to all who believe in Him. The promises of the Lord, given to us through His Son Jesus Christ, remain just as valid today as they were when Christ walked the earth.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, whose teachings and miracles are still available to all who believe—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 330 Bible Readings - Daniel 1: 8 (ESV) - Happy Thanksgiving!

May Father-God bless you as you celebrate this day of Thanksgiving with friends and family, and remember all the blessings He has given you in your life!

Daniel 1, Daniel 2:1-23, 1 Peter 5, Proverbs 19:23-29, Proverbs 20:1-4

Daniel 1: 8 (ESV)

“But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king’s food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore, he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.”

In Daniel 1:8, we read about the prophet Daniel. King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon attacked Jerusalem and captured Daniel and three of his friends to serve in his palace. Wanting to remain faithful to Jewish dietary laws even while living in a foreign land, Daniel asked for permission to continue following the laws of his faith and to refrain from eating the king’s food or drinking his wine.

Through his actions, Daniel demonstrated two important principles for believers in Christ. First, he was faithful to the Lord’s standards for ceremonial cleanliness according to Jewish law, even though he lived far from home and faced pressure to conform. Second, Daniel showed courage by standing firm in his convictions and respectfully seeking permission from the chief official to abstain from the royal food and wine. Because Daniel honored the Lord, Scripture tells us that Father-God moved the chief official to show him favor. When we honor Him, the Lord provides protection and blessings to His people.

The story of Daniel and the king’s food reminds me that a believer needs to remain faithful in every area of life, no matter how small it may seem. It also shows that a believer can uphold their faith while still showing respect to those in authority. In today’s world, I constantly feel pressure to conform to society’s standards. I used to work on Sundays during my job’s busy season, and I thought nothing of missing church. Going out for after-work drinks with coworkers became a weekly ritual meant to “bond” with my team. Yet those habits did not draw me closer to the Lord—they pulled me further away from my faith. Although I eventually left that job, I now follow Daniel’s example by declining Sunday-morning work so I can be in church. I can still spend time with coworkers after work, but I no longer feel the need to drink. I want the faith of Daniel—to show God the Father how deeply I honor Him and to live under His protection and blessing.

If this verse resonates with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who protects and blesses those who honor Him—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

If you prayed this prayer, welcome to the family of Father-God! I encourage you to find and join a Holy Spirit-filled, full-Gospel, Bible-based church where you can grow in your faith and experience the Lord’s love, signs, wonders, and miracles in your life.

Day 329 Bible Reading - 1 Peter 4:8 (ESV)

Ezekiel 47-48, 1 Peter 4, Proverbs 19:13-22

1 Peter 4:8 (ESV)

“Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.”

In 1 Peter 4:8, the apostle Peter writes to believers in modern-day Turkey who were experiencing persecution and suffering. He teaches them about love as the greatest commandment taught by Christ. In the original Greek version of the Bible, the word love came from the Greek word “agape.” Agape love equates to selfless and sacrificial love, which reflects the love Christ showed us through his death and resurrection. Christ called love the greatest commandment (Matthew 22:37-39) because love has the power of forgiveness and reconciliation.

Given this context, Peter tells believers that love is a deliberate choice and action that helps maintain harmony in relationships. When believers show love to others, they reflect Father-God’s loving and forgiving nature and grace. Peter’s teaching that love “covers a multitude of sins” does not mean that a believer ignores wrongdoing. Instead, it means a believer chooses forgiveness and reconciliation to reflect the grace God the Father has shown to them. To love doesn’t just mean having loving thoughts towards those who have wronged us. A believer must express love with tangible actions, such as serving others, offering forgiveness, and seeking peace.

This biblical principle has practical applications in my life. When a person has wronged me, I pray to God the Father to help me know how to forgive that person and love them, in the way the Lord wants me to show love to them. I ask for guidance from the Holy Spirit to help me deal with my anger, resentment, and any other feelings that come up. I don’t want my anger to consume my thoughts and emotions, so I offer the situation to the Lord for His guidance. It can happen instantly, or it might take time, but with the help of the Holy Spirit, I can reach a place of peace and have my actions reflect the forgiveness and reconciliation I now feel towards the person who wronged me.

Does this verse resonate with you? If you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who can guide you to show love to all people—even those who have wronged you—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him in the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 328 Bible Readings - 1 Peter 3:3-4 (ESV)

Ezekiel 45-46, 1 Peter 3, Proverbs 19:1-12

1 Peter 3:3-4 (ESV)

In 1 Peter 3:3-4, Peter writes to Christian women scattered throughout modern-day Turkey, addressing the difference between inner and outer beauty. The women he addressed were not so different from women today. In the Greco-Roman world, a woman’s outward adornment was often a sign of social status and wealth; women spent hours braiding their hair and coveting gold jewelry and fine clothes. While hairstyles and fashions have changed, women today still spend hours beautifying themselves and desiring fine attire.

Peter reminds women that the source of their beauty must be their inner selves. As believers in Christ, their true appearance should reflect virtue and character. Women, like men, need to ask themselves daily: “Does my lifestyle reflect my Christian beliefs? Does my appearance honor the Lord?”

I do not believe Peter was telling Christian women to neglect their hair or avoid nice clothes. Rather, he was concerned about an obsession with external appearance, which was often linked to social status and wealth. An excessive fixation on the exterior can lead to vanity, pride, and greed. Christ taught His believers to store their treasures in heaven, not on earth. A Christian’s treasure should not consist of material possessions, such as jewelry or clothes.

Christ reminded His followers that life is temporary, and so is our physical appearance. He described Himself as “gentle and humble in heart,” and these are the inner qualities Christian women need to cultivate daily. We must focus on whether our conduct pleases God the Father rather than seeking the world’s approval of our image.

These verses remind me that, as much as I love wearing nice clothing and jewelry, my priority must be thoughts and behaviors that please the Lord. Do my actions reflect the gentle and humble spirit of Christ? When I follow the Lord’s plan for my life, my efforts bear fruit, and I experience His blessings.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who has a plan for your life filled with His blessings—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him in prayer, and express your trust. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Day 327 Bible Readings – Proverbs 18:17 (ESV)

Ezekiel 43-44, 1 Peter 2, Proverbs 18:17-24

Proverbs 18:17 (ESV)

“The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.”

In Proverbs 18:17, Solomon advises believers on how to treat information that comes to us initially. In a dispute or debate, the first person to present their case often seems right—at least until the other side is heard and all parties are cross-examined. Hearing multiple perspectives and testing each claim leads to a fair and accurate judgment.

These verses feel especially important in our age of social media. Information spreads quickly, and as Solomon reminds us, believers need discernment. We cannot accept everything we read online as true. Instead, we must gather all the information before reaching a conclusion. We need to understand the context of what we read and consider other perspectives before accepting something as truth. And if the information involves moral or spiritual claims, believers must run it through a biblical lens to determine whether it aligns with the Lord’s teachings.

I love watching live debates and then listening to the different opinions afterward. People often have wildly different takeaways, and it makes me wonder if we even watched the same event. One of the most important lessons I learned in college was never to rely on secondhand information—always read the original source. Verifying what you hear or read is exactly what Solomon instructs us to do in this verse. When believers follow the Lord’s principles of fairness and careful judgment, they grow in discernment and gain the ability to recognize truth in all things.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who gives wisdom and discernment to judge all things with fairness and justice—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation.

Day 326 Bible Readings - 1 Peter 1:14-16 (ESV)

Ezekiel 41 & 42, 1 Peter 1, Proverbs 18:7-16

1 Peter 1:14-16 (ESV)

“As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy.’”

In 1 Peter 1:14–16, Peter, the apostle of Jesus Christ, writes to believers in modern-day Turkey about how to live faithfully in a pagan culture. He reminds them that they are children of the Lord and are in a covenant relationship with Him. As children of Father-God, they are called to obey Him because the grace of Jesus Christ has saved them. Peter urges believers to reject their former passions—the desires that shaped their lives before they met Christ. Father-God commands believers to reflect His holiness in how they live. When Christ saved them, He transformed both their character and their conduct. To be “holy” means the Lord has set believers apart for His purposes. Holiness is choosing to align one’s behavior with the character of Christ so that His love is reflected to the world.

I sometimes struggle with the idea of living in holiness, but over the years I’ve realized that holiness often looks like treating others the way I want to be treated. I don’t steal because I wouldn’t want someone to steal from me. I abstain from alcohol so I don’t lose control of myself—a lack of control that once led me to poor decisions. I know what I said and did when I drank in excess, and I don’t want to return to the consequences of that former life, where my sharp tongue hurt both myself and others. Living in holiness requires me to live differently than society, but I know I am happier when my life aligns with the Lord’s will than when I resist it. Father-God has a plan for my life that fits exactly how He created me. I no longer feel like a “square trying to fit into a round hole.” Instead, following the Lord’s plan makes me feel like a puzzle piece placed perfectly in His design for the world.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel prompted to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who created you perfectly for the role He designed you to fulfill—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 325 Bible Readings for November 22 - James 5:9 (ESV)

Ezekiel 40, James 5, Proverbs 17:15-28, Proverbs 18:1-6

James 5:9 (ESV)

“Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing at the door.”

In James 5:9, James wrote to the Jewish Christians about the importance of getting along with their church community. He warned them not to grumble or complain about one another, because doing so would create division. Believers are called to act like Christ and foster a spirit of unity and love. James also reminded them that Father-God is always listening, as if He is standing right outside the door. As children of the Lord, we are accountable to God the Father for our actions and our words. If we judge others and then complain about them to other people, the Lord will hold us accountable for that judgment.

When I read this verse this morning, it hit close to home because I have a friendship at church that drives me a little crazy. My church friend never seems satisfied with the seats I save for us. After the third complaint, I finally gave up trying to save seats altogether. At this point, I don’t even care if we sit together. I found myself grumbling inwardly, and eventually I complained about it to another church friend. The Holy Spirit corrected me for my complaining, and later the Lord allowed me to experience the same frustration. Someone saved seats for me during a service, but they never saved one in the middle—where I prefer to sit—and always put me on the side. In that moment, I realized I was feeling exactly what my friend must have felt.

The guidance I received from the Holy Spirit was not to judge my friends, but to treat them the way Christ would treat them. Christ would have accepted my two friends, forgiven their complaining, and moved on. He certainly wouldn’t have grumbled about them to others the way I did. So that is what I am trying to practice. I honor our friendships because we belong to the same church community, and I bring my resentment and irritation to the Lord instead of letting it fester. I no longer complain about their behavior to others, and—for my own peace—I have taken a short break from the friendships until my heart can return to a more loving posture. Trying to be more like Christ has brought peace back into my heart and helped preserve the friendships I value in my church community.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel prompted to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who offers peace that restores and heals—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 324 Bible Readings – James 4:13-15 (ESV)

Ezekiel 38-39, James 4, Proverbs 17:15-24

James 4:13-15 (ESV)

“Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.””

In James 4:13–15, James addresses believers who make plans without considering the will of God the Father. He tells them that life is unpredictable and often short—like a mist. James reminds believers that the Lord is in control of every aspect of life, and therefore they need to seek His will in all their decisions.

These verses stood out to me this morning. For many years, I made plans for my life without consulting Father-God. Then something would happen, and my plans would fall apart. My life felt so unpredictable that I eventually stopped making New Year’s resolutions and long-term plans. However, when I began seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit to discern whether the big plans for my life aligned with the Lord’s will, everything felt smoother. When I trust in Father-God’s plans, it doesn’t feel like I’m fighting an uphill battle. When I submit to the Lord’s direction, it feels like I’m finally taking the path of least resistance. Things just seem to work out—and often better than I imagined or planned. My life becomes blessed and filled with miracles.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel prompted to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who gives a life full of blessings and miracles—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 323 Bible Readings – Ezekiel 37:1-6 (ESV)

Ezekiel 36-37, James 3, Proverbs 17:5-14

Ezekiel 37:1-6 (ESV)

“The hand of the Lord was upon me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of the Lord and set me down in the middle of the valley; it was full of bones. And he led me around among them, and behold, there were very many on the surface of the valley, and behold, they were very dry. And he said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O Lord God, you know.” Then he said to me, “Prophesy over these bones, and say to them, O dry bones, hear the word of the Lord. Thus says the Lord God to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. And I will lay sinews upon you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live, and you shall know that I am the Lord.”

In Ezekiel 37:1–6, we read about the well-known passage where the prophet walks through a valley of dry bones. In The Chosen series (Season 6, Episode 8), they portray Jesus walking through this same valley and encountering Ezekiel. 

I’ve heard many sermons on these verses over the years, but this morning, I found myself thinking about revival as I read them. Ezekiel spoke the word of the Lord over the dry bones, and they came back to life. These bones belonged to people who had once lived but were now dead. In a revival, the evangelist preaches the Word of God, and Father-God’s truth revives the Holy Spirit within the hearts of those listening. Revival is the Lord’s promise of restoration to His people when they feel dead inside.

Sometimes people feel spiritually dead because hopelessness or despair overwhelms them. They doubt the Lord’s promises—or even His existence. I once went through a season when I wondered whether the Lord even knew who I was. Where was God the Father, and why was He allowing painful things to happen to me? Then an “Ezekiel-type” person entered my life and reminded me of Father-God’s promises. Through his encouragement, the Lord breathed life back into me, and my faith came alive again.

If you don’t have an Ezekiel-type friend in your life, consider attending a revival near you. Listen to the evangelist’s message and allow the Word of the Lord to revive the Holy Spirit within you. Or read Bible verses out loud and let Father-God’s Word restore your faith. The Lord is faithful to His people and promises renewal and restoration in every situation, no matter how dead or hopeless it may seem.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who brings renewal and restoration to every lifeless place—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him through the prayer below, and express your desire to walk with Him. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

If you prayed this prayer, welcome to the family of Father-God! I encourage you to find and join a Holy Spirit-filled, full-Gospel, Bible-based church where you can grow in your faith and experience the Lord’s love, signs, wonders, and miracles in your life.

Day 322 Bible Readings - Ezekiel 34:15-16 (ESV)

Ezekiel 34-35, James 2, Proverbs 16:28-33, Proverbs 17:1-4

Ezekiel 34:15-16 (ESV)

“I myself will be the shepherd of my sheep, and I myself will make them lie down, declares the Lord God. I will seek the lost, and I will bring back the strayed, and I will bind up the injured, and I will strengthen the weak, and the fat and the strong I will destroy. I will feed them in justice.”

In Ezekiel 34:15–16, Ezekiel prophesied during the Babylonian exile that God the Father promises to be a good shepherd to His people. The Lord promises to provide security and rest for His people, even in times of turmoil and uncertainty. When Ezekiel gave this prophecy, Father-God was addressing the failure of Israel’s leaders to care for the people.

The Lord promised that He would pursue those who strayed from His ways and restore them. He desires reconciliation with His people because He loves them. Father-God wants to heal the broken, strengthen the weak, and restore them. When the Lord refers to the “fat and strong,” it means the people who are self-reliant and full of pride—those who do not depend on Him. Father-God will bring justice to those who exploit the weak. God the Father will care for His people with fairness and righteousness.

These verses assure me that when I go through times of uncertainty or become lost, Father-God will be a good shepherd to me even when human leaders fail. Father-God will step in to provide guidance, protection, and restoration. Before this year, I knew I often strayed from the Lord’s path, but He actively pursued me to reconcile me to Himself. The Holy Spirit led me to a Spirit- and faith-filled, full-gospel church where I began to deepen my relationship with God the Father. I wake up daily praising the Lord that He loves me, cares for me, and has brought blessings and miracles into my life.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who will pursue you when you become lost and reconcile you to Himself—this could be your moment.

Day 321 Bible Readings – James 1:7-8 (ESV)

Ezekiel 32-33, James 1, Proverbs 16:18-27

James 1:7-8 (ESV)

“For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.”

In James 1:7–8, James addresses the Jewish Christians scattered throughout the world about the danger of doubt. When a believer doubts the Lord, their relationship with Him becomes weakened. To receive blessings from God the Father, we need faith, trust, and confidence in His character and His promises. James describes believers who doubt Father-God as “double-minded,” meaning they waver between faith and doubt. Double-mindedness reveals a lack of full commitment to the Lord and leads to indecision. Without a firm foundation of faith, a believer becomes inconsistent in both actions and beliefs.

When you place your faith in the Lord, you reject the pull of worldly desires and distractions. Your actions begin to consistently reflect your trust in Him. Christ becomes your foundation, and doubts or external circumstances lose their power to shake you. You can rely on the Holy Spirit for guidance and ask the Lord for wisdom to help you navigate the challenges of your life.

I first became aware of double-mindedness when I joined my full-gospel, faith church in May. I began to see how much doubt I carried because of the teachings in some of the churches I had attended before. Those churches emphasized that people are sinners—which is true—but they often overlooked what Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.” When we place our faith in Jesus Christ and are saved, we become new people. Christ died on the cross for all our past, present, and future sins.

When I believed I was nothing more than a sinner, I struggled to believe that Christ could truly love me, especially when I couldn’t stop sinning. My new church helped me understand that when I accepted Christ as my Savior, I became a child of the Lord—deeply loved by Him. I am now intensely aware of double-mindedness because I never want to return to thinking that Father-God does not love me. My renewed, single-minded devotion to God the Father has deepened my relationship with Him and brought me greater peace. Each day, I call on the Holy Spirit for guidance and seek Father-God’s wisdom for my life. My faith transformed when I rooted out the double-mindedness that once held me back.

If these verses resonate with you, and if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ—who loves you and longs to bring peace into your life—this may be the right moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the prayer that follows, expressing your trust and desire to walk with Him. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 320 Bible Readings - Hebrews 13:5-6 (ESV)

Ezekiel 30-31, Hebrews 13, Proverbs 16:8-17

Hebrews 13:5-6 (ESV)

“Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?””

In Hebrews 13:5–6, the writer warns Jewish Christians about the dangers of money and greed. Jesus taught that a believer cannot serve both the Lord and money. When we begin to love money, it can subtly replace our reliance on the blessings of God the Father. Instead, believers are called to value contentment, trusting that the Lord is a good shepherd who faithfully provides everything we need. Because we have the assurance of Father-God’s presence and provision in our lives, we can prioritize spiritual wealth over material wealth. We can confidently declare that we have His help, His guidance through the Holy Spirit, and His protection from every earthly danger.

Contentment is something I struggle with the most. I always seem to want more and more things. When I moved six years ago, I was shocked by how much I had accumulated. I remember making a pile of all my clothes on the bed—and it stood nearly two feet high. Some items didn’t fit, but I kept them “just in case.” A few even had the price tags still attached. Yet I can remember feeling, at the time, that I never had enough to wear.

With the Holy Spirit’s guidance, I now pause before buying any new clothing. I look in my closet and count how many of that item I already own. Then I try them on to make sure they still fit and that I still like them. If they don’t, I donate or throw them out. I don’t want another closet full of clothes that don’t fit or that I never wear. These small practices have helped me become a better steward of my money, and they’ve allowed me to give more generously to the work of my church. Regularly reviewing my belongings has also shown me that Father-God not only provides what I need—He often gives me what I want. I truly serve a good Father-God who loves me and calls me His beloved child.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who longs to be a good shepherd in your life—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him through the prayer below, expressing your trust and your desire to walk with Him. Father-God is faithful, and He is ready to meet you right where you are.

Day 319 Bible Readings – Hebrews 12:14 (ESV)

Ezekiel 27-28, Hebrews 12:14-29, Proverbs 15:31-33, Proverbs 16:1-7

Hebrews 12:14 (ESV)

“Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.”

In Hebrews 12:14, the writer reminds us to live at peace with everyone. When the early church was getting started, there was a lot of tension between Jewish and Gentile believers, so this reminder was really needed. Jesus blessed the peacemakers, so it makes sense that He wants His followers to pursue harmony with the people around them.

We’re also called to be “holy,” but in the New Testament, holiness isn’t about rituals or following a list of rules. It’s about moral purity and being committed to the Lord in the way we live. When we walk in holiness, our lives line up with Father-God’s will and purpose.

This verse hits home for me. It reminds me that I need to do my part to seek reconciliation and peace in my relationships so that others can see Christ’s love through me. When I choose peace and holiness, it draws me closer to God the Father. And thankfully, I don’t have to do that on my own—I can rely on the Holy Spirit for guidance and strength.

I’ve been dealing with a strained friendship lately, and honestly, my first instinct was to just walk away because I really dislike drama. But when I asked the Holy Spirit what to do, I felt Him nudging me to stay in the friendship and work through it with patience. It’s not comfortable, but I can see how He’s using it to help me practice peace and holiness in a real and meaningful way. His guidance is what keeps my relationship with the Lord strong.

If this verse resonates with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who will help you maintain your peace and holiness—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him through the prayer below. Express your trust in Him and your desire to walk with Him. God is faithful, and He is ready to meet you right where you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus.

Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 318 Bible Readings for November 15 - Hebrews 12:7-8 (ESV)

Ezekiel 26-27, Hebrews 12:1-13, Proverbs 15:21-30

Hebrews 12:7-8 (ESV)

“It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.”

In Hebrews 12:7–8, the writer reminds believers that if you have a relationship with the Lord, He treats you as His child—and because of that, He will discipline you. God the Father is a loving and good Father who disciplines His children precisely because He loves them. Father-God is committed to our personal growth and spiritual well-being. As believers, we need to welcome His discipline as an essential part of our spiritual development and maturity. And if we never experience His discipline, we may need to pause and ask why the Lord is not treating us as His own. Understanding the Lord’s discipline helps us endure trials without falling into despair or resentment.

These verses spoke to me deeply because of an experience I had this week where the Holy Spirit corrected me and reminded me that Father-God holds me to a higher standard. I was volunteering at a conference where volunteers were not supposed to save their own seats—the conference team would save seats for us. However, I saw several volunteers saving seats for themselves. The conference team did save one for me in the first two rows, but it wasn’t directly in front of the speakers like the seats others had reserved for themselves. Throughout the conference, I argued with the Holy Spirit in my mind about how unfair it felt that I couldn’t save my seat like the others.

But the Holy Spirit kept pressing on my heart: if I wanted to be a true child of Father-God, I needed to walk in holiness and integrity. As I watched others break various rules, I wondered whether they, too, had the Holy Spirit speaking to them—or if it was just me being corrected. But when I read this verse afterward, I realized that my resentment had been misplaced. The Holy Spirit disciplined me because my relationship with the Lord has deepened over these last few months. His correction was actually a sign that I truly belong to Him. I really am a child of Father-God, and now I have experienced the evidence of His loving discipline. Father-God sees me as His own, and He loves me so much that He wants me to grow in holiness, becoming more like His Son, Jesus Christ.

What I first viewed as a frustrating experience has now humbled me. The Lord wants me to flourish, and He is willing to discipline me so I can receive all the blessings He desires to give.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who will love you and lovingly discipline you as His child—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him through the prayer below. Express your trust in Him and your desire to walk with Him. God is faithful, and He is ready to meet you right where you are.

Day 317 Bible Readings – Proverbs 15: 13 (ESV)

Ezekiel 24-25, Hebrews 11:17-40, Proverbs 15: 11-20

Proverbs 15: 13 (ESV)

“A glad heart makes a cheerful face, but by sorrow of heart the spirit is crushed.”

In Proverbs 15:13, Solomon tells us that when you have a relationship with God the Father, you have a joyful heart, which means you have an inner state of contentment and happiness. One of the fruits—or effects—of being filled with the Holy Spirit is joy. When you have joy in your heart, you will have a cheerful and happy face. But when there is sorrow in your heart that is deep and long-lasting, it can affect your spirit. Sorrow leads to despair, hopelessness, and a broken heart.

Solomon reminds us that when you have a relationship with the Lord and are filled with the Holy Spirit, your heart will be filled with joy, and your facial expression will reflect this joy. But when you have sorrow in your heart, the despair you feel will also be reflected in your face. Over time, that hopelessness can crush your spirit.

When I have sorrow in my heart, I pray to the Lord to help me restore the joy in my life. I ask for the guidance of the Holy Spirit to help me evaluate the sorrow so I can regain my joy. Sometimes, when I feel sad about my life, I make a list of all the things I am grateful for. Halfway through writing the list, I always feel the sorrow beginning to leave me. I am often overwhelmed with gratitude for Father- God’s love for me and for all the blessings I can recall in my life. This reflection leads me to write down a list of the blessings and miracles from the Lord, and soon joy comes flooding back into my being. The memories of the sadness I was experiencing disappear supernaturally, as if they were never there. I know I can keep the sadness I sometimes feel at bay when I think of all the good things the Lord has done in my life.

If this verse resonates with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, whose goodness will always fill you with joy—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the prayer that follows, expressing your trust and your desire to walk with Him. Welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 316 Bible Readings - Hebrews 11: 8 (ESV)

Ezekiel 22:23-31, Ezekiel 23, Hebrews 11:1-16, Proverbs 15:1-10

Hebrews 11: 8 (ESV)

“By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to a place that he was to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.”

In Hebrews 11:8, the writer reminds the Jewish Christians of Abraham—the father of the Christian faith and the patriarch of the Jewish people. God the Father instructed Abraham to leave his native country and his people in the prosperous city of Mesopotamia. Abraham wasn’t even told where he was going, yet he obeyed the Lord immediately and left without hesitation. All he knew was that the land he was being led to would become his inheritance.

This verse shows us the importance of obeying Father God’s call when we receive it—and of obeying immediately. Even if the path ahead is unclear, we are called to respond without question. Abraham demonstrated the strength of his faith through his actions. Though it took several generations for Father God’s promise to be fully fulfilled, Abraham ultimately received his inheritance. The Lord loves an obedient believer, and Abraham’s unwavering faith was rewarded, leaving a legacy for generations of his descendants.

When I reflected on how often I obey the Lord’s guidance, I asked the Holy Spirit to give me a percentage rating. The answer I received was 65%, which I thought was fair. Sometimes my obedience is immediate and unquestioning. At other times, it takes three reminders from the Holy Spirit before I act. And in some cases, I drag my feet, complain, and argue—though I eventually give in to the Lord. On those rare occasions when I dismiss His guidance altogether, I feel the pain and consequences of my rebellion. I’m not sure I will ever be as faithful as Abraham, but I hope to reach a 95% rating someday. What I do know is this: whenever I obeyed the Holy Spirit’s guidance immediately and without question, Father God rewarded that obedience. And whenever I delayed, I always regretted not acting sooner. Obedience to the Lord’s guidance—prompt and unquestioning—is the path to a peaceful and rewarding life.

If this verse resonates with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, whose guidance leads to peace and blessing—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in the prayer that follows, expressing your trust and your desire to walk with Him. Welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 315 Bible Readings – Hebrews 10:23 (ESV)

Ezekiel 21, Ezekiel 22:1-22, Hebrews 10:19-39, Proverbs 14:25-35

Hebrews 10:23 (ESV)

“Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.”

In Hebrews 10:23, the writer encourages the Jewish Christians to remain faithful. Facing persecution, they had become discouraged and were tempted to return to their old faith. The writer reminds them to hold fast to the hope of salvation and eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ. Believers in Christ have the assurance of our Father God’s reliability. We believe in the Lord, who is always faithful to His people.

This verse applies to every believer in Christ, even in modern times. I often feel pressure because of my faith in Jesus Christ, and I have occasionally experienced persecution from those who see Christianity as something only an ignorant person would believe in. The writer of Hebrews tells us that we should have confidence in God’s promises—knowing that He is faithful and will fulfill every one of them.

Our hope must be grounded in the unchanging character of the Lord, who loves His children. We cannot merely claim to have hope; our daily actions should reflect the hope we profess to believe in. When we remember the promises of our Father God and His new covenant with His people, we gain the strength to stand firm in our faith. We can call on the guidance of the Holy Spirit to help us remain faithful to God the Father, who promises us everlasting life through our faith in His Son, Jesus Christ.

If this verse resonates with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who promises us everlasting life and is faithful to His word—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him in the following prayer, and express your trust. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 314 Bible Readings - Hebrews 10:15-18 (ESV)

Ezekiel 19-20, Hebrews 10:1-18, Proverbs 14:15-24

Hebrews 10:15-18 (ESV)

“And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying, “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,” then he adds, “I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.” Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.”

In Hebrews 10:15-18, the author wrote to the Jewish believers in Christ to explain the superiority of Christ’s new covenant with his people. The writer explains that the Holy Spirit is an active witness to this new covenant. We become transformed in our hearts when Father-God writes His law in our hearts and minds. In the new covenant, we obey the Lord’s laws because we love him. We do not obey Him because of external laws and obligations. The Lord promises to forgive our sins and remove them from His memory. Father-God will not hold our sins against us. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ made the annual practice of sin offerings unnecessary. The death of Christ fully atoned for all our past, present, and future sins. As a result, believers can now focus on deepening their personal relationship with the Lord, rather than on rituals of atonement and repeated sacrifices.

Although ritualistic sin offerings are no longer practices, we often still identify with our former, sinful selves. We need to forget our sinful selves as well because this new covenant tells us that Father-God does not remember our sins. The Lord has forgiven us, and we need to forgive ourselves. We are new people through our faith in Jesus Christ, who has transformed our hearts.

Whenever I have a thought that references my life before I was born again, I tell myself that person does not exist because Jesus Christ transformed my heart. I have more peace in my life and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, helping me align my life with the Lord’s laws and purposes. Faithfully following Father-God’s laws has brought peace to my life as I embrace that I am a child of the Lord, who loves and protects me from all harm.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who gives you a new and more peaceful life—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him in the following prayer, and express your trust. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Day 313 Bible Readings - Ezekiel 18:21-23 (ESV)

Ezekiel 17-18, Hebrews 9:16-28, Proverbs 14:5-14

Ezekiel 18:21-23 (ESV)

“But if a wicked person turns away from all his sins that he has committed and keeps all my statutes and does what is just and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die. None of the transgressions that he has committed shall be remembered against him; for the righteousness that he has done he shall live. Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked, declares the Lord God, and not rather that he should turn from his way and live?”

In Ezekiel 18:21-23, Ezekiel reminds us that the Lord always desires our repentance because He loves us and does not want us to suffer. If a person who previously led a wicked life turns away and repents of his sins, and then commits to obeying Father-God’s laws, the Lord will restore that person. The Lord will forgive a wicked person’s sins, and He will not remember them. If a wicked person transforms his heart and behavior, he will not suffer the consequences of his sins, which often lead to spiritual and physical harm. Ezekiel reminds us that Father-God is just and merciful, and He wants everyone to turn away from sin and live. Father-God offers us a path to forgiveness and life through repentance.

I love these verses because they give hope that our Lord is merciful and just. Father-God doesn’t care about the sins you committed before you found Him. His only desire is that you are repentant and committed to living a better life because His love has transformed your heart and behavior. The Lord doesn’t want death for His children. He will discipline us like any good father when we do wrong, but He also offers us a way to return to Him and restore our relationship. Father-God wants everyone to be saved from the deadly consequences of sin and to have a life full of His blessings and love.

If these verses resonate with you—if you feel compelled to place your faith in Jesus Christ, who wants to give you a life full of blessings and love—this could be your moment. Open your heart to Him, speak to Him in the following prayer, and express your trust in Him. Share your desire to walk with Him and welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you wherever you are.

Heavenly Father, I give You my life. Please forgive me for all my sins and wash me clean through the blood of Jesus. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead, and I confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive Your forgiveness and the gift of salvation. Thank You, Lord—I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, and I am made new in Jesus’ name. Amen.
