Read through the Bible in 2 Years: Proverbs 31, Romans 11
I hope that when you’re reading Romans you have noticed how often Paul references the Old Testament – Habakkuk, Hosea, Deuteronomy, Isaiah, Genesis, Malachi, 1 Kings, Psalms, and more. For as much as you might love the book of Romans (and Acts, Luke, Philippians, 1 Peter … and the list goes on and on!), let’s not limit ourselves to reading the New Testament.
Remember 2 Timothy 3:16, “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,” and 2 Peter 1:21, “For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.” Let’s be faithful to Psalm 119:11 and store up God’s word in our hearts, that we might not sin against the Lord.
I hope you’ll stick with us and Read through the WHOLE Bible in 2 Years. After we finish Romans, we will be back in the Old Testament mining for nuggets of gold.
Heavenly Father, Thank You for giving us Your living and active word. May it pierce our hearts, bringing conviction and wisdom and encouragement to each of us. Guide us. Feed us. Speak to us. Draw us to know You more that we would love You more. Amen.
