Going deeper...to go further

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

This month we're going on a journey into God's vision for His Church—our identity, calling, authority, love, unity, and mission. Each day you'll find the passage in full on our website alongside something to help you focus and pray so that you can apply the Word to your life. As we read the Word it’s important that we apply what we read and pray it out over our lives. One of the way you can do this is by using the acronym SOAP. To find out more about SOAP watch this video.

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

Prayer: "Father, show me whose burden I can help bear today."

Galatians 6:1-10

Continue to do good1Brothers, if someone yields to sin, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Be careful in case you also are tempted.2Carry each other's burdens, for by doing so you will fulfil Christ's law.3For if anyone considers himself important when he is really nothing, he only deceives himself.4Let each one test the things he does to see if he has anything to boast about, without worrying about what others do.5In this sense each one has to look out for himself.6Let the one who is taught the Word share all that is good with his teacher.7Do not be fooled; God is not to be mocked! For anyone will reap according to what he has sown.8So the one who sows to please himself will reap the destruction that comes from such a lifestyle. But he who sows obedience to the Spirit will reap what the Spirit gives: eternal life.9So let us never be discouraged from doing what is good, for in due course we shall reap abundantly if we persevere.10Therefore, let us do good to everyone whenever we have the opportunity to do so, but especially in regard to our fellow members in the family of faith.

Father, thank You for making me a member of the Body of Christ. Help me to love Your Church as You love her. Teach me to serve with humility, walk in the authority of Jesus, be led by the Holy Spirit, and lay down my life for my brothers and sisters. Build us together into a dwelling place for Your presence and make us a powerful witness of Your Kingdom until Christ returns. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
