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 reading scriptures about the Church living as a missional community. God's people are called, formed and sent to participate in His mission in the world. Each day includes an Old Testament reading, a New Testament reading, a question for reflection and a daily prayer. 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.

Day 4 – God’s Heart for the Nations

Reflect: “How does Scripture expand our vision beyond our own congregation, neighbourhood, and culture?”

Psalm 67

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm. A song.1May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine on us—2so that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations. 3May the peoples praise you, God; may all the peoples praise you.4May the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you rule the peoples with equity and guide the nations of the earth.5May the peoples praise you, God; may all the peoples praise you. 6The land yields its harvest; God, our God, blesses us.7May God bless us still, so that all the ends of the earth will fear him.

Revelation 7:9-12

9Then, as I watched, I saw a crowd so great it was impossible to count, from every nation, tribe, people group and language. They stood before the throne and in front of the Lamb, clothed in white robes with palm branches in their hands.10And they cried out with loud voices: "Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne and to the Lamb."11-12All the angels standing around the throne, the elders and their four living creatures fell on their faces before the throne and worshipped God, saying: "Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanks and honour, power and strength be to our God forever and ever. Amen. It shall be so."

Thank you Jesus, that You make us a people who know and live in Your love, proclaim Your good news, welcome the stranger, serve our neighbours and participate together in Your mission. Show us those You are reaching, and give us eyes to see, ears to hear, courage to respond and love for the people around us.
