Leviticus 21-23, Psalm 37
Psalm 37:23-24 (NLT)
“The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will never fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand.”
In Psalm 37:23–24, David writes about the Lord’s guidance and support for those who believe in Him and live righteously. Father-God actively directs the steps of His followers through the Holy Spirit. David tells us that the Lord takes pleasure in the details of His children’s lives. However, David does not deny that believers will stumble or fail at times. Instead, he reminds us that Father-God will support us because we have a personal relationship with Him. The Lord promises to hold our hand, providing encouragement and hope, and to uphold His children through life’s difficulties.
What stood out to me most today is David’s acknowledgment that faith in the Lord does not guarantee an absence of failure or moments of weakness. There are times when I have mistakenly thought that my faith in Father-God and my attentiveness to the Holy Spirit should somehow make me immune to sin or unwanted thoughts. But I know that is not true.
Even though I do not enjoy being the focus of attention, my ego still craves affirmation in subtle ways. When I see others receiving attention, my perspective can shift. In those moments, self-pity can creep in, and I start to believe that something must be wrong with me. But the Holy Spirit reminds me that the Lord loves me and cares for me deeply. Recently, Father-God allowed me to experience a long-held dream of volunteering at a crusade. Even when I stumble, the Lord holds my hand and reminds me that He is directing the steps of my life.
If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who holds your hand through life’s difficulties—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer, expressing your trust, your desire to walk with Him, and your willingness to 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.
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 36 Bible Readings for February 7 - Leviticus 19:26 (NLT)
Leviticus 19-20, Psalm 36
Leviticus 19:26 (NLT)
“Do not eat meat that has not been drained of its blood. Do not practice fortune-telling or witchcraft.”
In Leviticus 19:26, the Lord gives Moses laws intended to separate His people from pagan practices. Father-God instructs the Israelites not to eat meat with the blood still in it and not to practice divination or witchcraft.
One Bible commentary I read explained that in the ancient world, consuming blood was common in pagan religious rituals because blood was believed to contain a life force. Understanding this context helped me see why this command appears in Leviticus. Divination and sorcery were also widespread practices in ancient cultures and were used to predict the future or manipulate events through supernatural means. Turning to these practices revealed a lack of trust in the Lord and a dependence on other spiritual powers.
In today’s world, these practices often seem harmless because they are no longer widely associated with formal religious worship. In many cultures, animal blood is consumed in foods such as sausage. Newspapers and media outlets also feature daily or weekly horoscope columns, which became popular in the early twentieth century. I grew up around foods made with pig blood, and even as a child I never liked them. Looking back now, I see how the Lord was already shaping my instincts long before I understood why. The Lord calls His people to be distinct from the cultures that surround us. Obeying these laws shows our faith and trust in Father-God’s wisdom and provision.
I’ve learned that when I fully place my trust in the Lord—especially by remaining separate from cultural practices that pull my attention away from Him—I hear the guidance of the Holy Spirit more clearly. When I rely on Father-God’s wisdom and direction rather than outside influences, my life functions with greater peace and clarity.
If thus verse resonates with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One whose ways bring peace and order to your life—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer, expressing your trust, your desire to walk with Him, and your willingness to 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.

Day 35 Bible Readings - Leviticus 18:1-3 (NLT)
Leviticus 16-18, Psalm 35
Leviticus 18:1-3 (NLT)
“Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘Give the following instructions to the people of Israel. I am the Lord your God. So do not act like the people in Egypt, where you used to live, or like the people of Canaan, where I am taking you. You must not imitate their way of life.’”
Leviticus 18:1–3 records the Lord instructing Moses that the people of Israel were to live as a distinct and set-apart people. They were called to adopt a new identity as Father-God’s covenant people and to leave behind the influences of Egypt. The Promised Land was inhabited by nations with different religious practices, and the Lord warned Israel not to adopt their ways. Their conduct and way of life were meant to reflect their covenant relationship with Him.
These verses remind me that as a believer in Jesus Christ, my life should reflect the Lord’s character and nature rather than the desires of the flesh. Much of contemporary culture mirrors the Old Testament world in its rejection of the Lord’s instruction. Media and entertainment often promote instant gratification as the highest good, even when it harms others. Yet Father-God teaches that the second greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. When we follow the patterns encouraged by popular culture, our behavior can easily lead to broken relationships and destructive outcomes.
I’ve learned that when I follow the laws and principles the Lord laid out in Scripture, my life simply works better. I experience peace within myself and in my relationships with others. I am able to pursue the dreams I have for my life with clarity and purpose, guided by the Holy Spirit. Living according to the Lord’s ways doesn’t restrict my life—it brings order, peace, and direction.
If these verses resonate with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One whose ways lead to a life of peace and blessing—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer, expressing your trust, your desire to walk with Him, and your willingness to welcome His presence into your life. God is faithful and ready to meet you exactly where you are.

Day 34 Bible Readings for February 5 - Leviticus 15:31 (NLT)
Leviticus 14-15, Psalm 34
Leviticus 15:31 (NLT)
“This is how you will guard the people of Israel from ceremonial uncleanness. Otherwise they would die, for their impurity would defile my Tabernacle that stands among them.”
Leviticus 15:31 shows the Lord’s directive about the importance of ritual purity in relation to the Tabernacle. One Bible commentary I read explained that in Old Testament times, it was common for surrounding cultures to worship their gods through sexual practices, including the use of temple prostitutes. Father-God wanted His people to remain separate from these forms of worship. The Lord established a clear separation between sexual activity and the worship of Father-God.
Until I read this commentary, I did not realize how widespread these practices were in the ancient world. I had seen references to this kind of worship in movies, but I did not understand how common it actually was. This passage helped me better understand why holiness was required in approaching the Lord. Father-God wanted His people to be distinct—set apart from the surrounding cultures—and to worship Him in purity and reverence.
These verses also remind me that if we want the Holy Spirit to dwell within us, we need to treat our bodies as a temple for Him. When I am living in sin, I notice that I resist listening to the Holy Spirit’s guidance. But when I am attentive to the Holy Spirit each day, my life reflects more of the Lord’s character, and things tend to fall into better order. This verse reminds me that the laws the Lord gave in Scripture are not meant to restrict us, but to draw us closer to Him so that we can reflect His nature more fully.
If this verse resonates with you—if you feel drawn to place your faith in Jesus Christ, the One who helps you reflect His holiness and character—this may be your moment. Open your heart to Him. Speak to Him in prayer, expressing your trust, your desire to walk with Him, and your willingness to 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.
