Bible Reading Plan

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'll be looking at scriptures on the Holy Spirit and what it means to live devoted and holy. Alongside these passages we'll be reading through Psalm 119 and some of the following Psalms each day. 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.

The Holy Spirit

  • The third person of the Trinity. So the Holy Spirit is God.
  • He is the Spirit of holiness, of truth, of faith, the Counsellor who will always be with us as believers.
  • The Holy Spirit is God’s great gift to those for whom Jesus Christ is Saviour and Lord.
  • Because He lives in them, the bodies of believers have become temples of the Holy Spirit.
  • As God lives in the believer, he or she is to trust in the power of the Holy Spirit to enable the fulfillment of His will.
  • He reproduces the character of Christ within believers.
  • They are able to use spiritual gifts or express supernatural manifestations of the Spirit who lives in them.

Luke 11:5-13

5-6He then added: "Imagine that one of your friends goes to someone in the middle of the night and says, 'Friend, please lend me three loaves of bread; one of my friends has just arrived after a long journey and I have nothing to give him.'7"But he received the reply, 'Don't trouble me now! I have already locked the door for the night and my family and I are all in bed. I cannot disturb everyone and give you anything.'8I tell you clearly, though the man will not get up and give him the bread on the basis of their friendship, yet because of the man's bold persistence he will stir himself and will give him whatever he needs.9"So I tell you: continue to ask and it will be given you; go on seeking and you will find; keep knocking and the door will be opened to you.10For everyone who asks in this way receives; he who is determined when he seeks finds; and to him who persistently knocks the door will be opened.11"Listen, you fathers: if your son asked you for bread, would you give him a stone, or if he asked for a fish would you give him a snake instead?12Or if he asked you for an egg, would you give him a scorpion?13If you, who are far from perfect, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven, who is perfect, give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?"

Psalm 119:17-24

ג Gimel17Be good to your servant while I live, that I may obey your word.18Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law.19I am a stranger on earth; do not hide your commands from me.20My soul is consumed with longing for your laws at all times.21You rebuke the arrogant, who are accursed, those who stray from your commands.22Remove from me their scorn and contempt, for I keep your statutes.23Though rulers sit together and slander me, your servant will meditate on your decrees.24Your statutes are my delight; they are my counselors.
