Read through the Bible in 2 Years: Joshua 18-19

So Joshua said to the people of Israel,
“How long will you put off going in
to take possession of the land,
which the LORD, the God of your
fathers, has given you?”

Joshua 18:3 ESV

Heavenly Father, Let us not delay in whatever task You have called us to do. If you’re calling us to faith in Christ, I pray that TODAY would be the day of salvation, that we would not put it off any more. If you’re calling us to share the good news with a friend or neighbor or family member, I pray that TODAY would be the day that we open our mouths and speak the words of eternal life. If you’re calling us to cook and clean and wipe bottoms and noses, I pray that TODAY and EVERYDAY we would work heartily at the high and holy calling of motherhood, serving You, Lord, and not men. If you’re calling us to read Your Word each and every day, I pray that that journey would start TODAY.

Help us, Father, to remember that You are the God of small beginnings, that You are the God who leads and guides and calls.

You, Father, are my chosen portion and cup; You hold the lot. The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance, because You are the sovereign Lord over the drawing of my lot.

In the Name of Jesus Christ my Lord, I pray. Amen.
