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 looking at scriptures which talk about Jews and Gentiles alongside a passage about love. The first scripture each day follows this outline: 
Days 1-6 - The Foundation & the Prophets
Days 7-10 - Jesus and the Nations
Days 11-19 - The Early Church & the Gentiles
Days 20-30 - God’s Plan for Jews and Gentiles United in Christ
Day 31 - The Final Reminder of God’s Global Kingdom. 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.

Matthew 8:5-13

The Centurion understands authority5When Jesus had arrived at Capernaum, a Roman centurion approached Him seeking help.6He said to Jesus: "Lord, my servant lies paralysed at my home and is suffering terribly."7"I will go and heal him," Jesus offered.8But the centurion replied: "Lord I am not worthy enough to have You in my house. You only have to issue the command and my servant will be healed.9As a soldier I am myself under authority, with soldiers under my authority. If I say to one, 'Go,' he goes, or to another, 'Come,' he comes; I only have to say, 'Do this,' to my servant and he does it."10Jesus was astonished at what the centurion said and told those who were following Him: "I tell you the truth, nowhere among all the people of Israel have I found anyone with such faith as this Roman soldier.11I tell you clearly that many will come from the east and west and will be welcome to take their places at the feast alongside Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the Kingdom of heaven.12Yet those who you would think would automatically be considered as belonging to that Kingdom will be excluded and thrown into outer darkness, where there will be deep mourning and cries of despair."13Turning to the centurion, Jesus said: "Go! The healing will take place in precisely the way you believed it would happen." The soldier's servant was healed at exactly the time Jesus said this!

Philippians 1:9-11

9This is what I pray for you: that your love for God and for one another will become stronger and stronger, that you grow to know Him better and will have great depth of insight into the truth.10For then you will be able to discern God's best purposes, and you will walk in pure and blameless love until Christ calls you home.11You will bear much fruit because of the right relationship you have with God that is only possible through Jesus Christ. And you will live for God's praise and glory.
