Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 12, 1 Chronicles 14-16

1 Chronicles 15:16 ESV — David also commanded the chiefs of the Levites to appoint their brothers as the singers who should play loudly on musical instruments, on harps and lyres and cymbals, to raise sounds of joy.

1 Chronicles 16:7-10 ESV — Then on that day David first appointed that thanksgiving be sung to the LORD by Asaph and his brothers.
“Oh give thanks to the LORD;
call upon his name;
make known his deeds among the peoples!
Sing to him, sing praises to him;
tell of all his wondrous works!
Glory in his holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!”

Why isn’t Zebulun’s Genealogy Listed & Does it Matter? – 1 Chronicles 7-8 – 2026 Day 40

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 8, 1 Chronicles 7-8

1 Chronicles 1-8 is a listing of all the genealogies of the nation of Israel, yet Zebulun’s family isn’t listed. Why? Does it matter? Here are my thoughts:

When God Scatters Families – 1 Chronicles 5-6 – 2026 Day 39

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 7, 1 Chronicles 5-6

God scattered the families of Simeon and Levi because they’d impulsively massacred the men of Shechem. (See Genesis 34:24-30 and 49:5-7) Yet, God still worked in that scattering. My family, too, has been scattered. 💔 But I trust that God will use each of us in our own towns to be a blessing. How about you?

Heavenly Father, You are Almighty Lord, ruler over the whole world. I pray that You will use each of us in our cities and states and countries for Your glory. I pray that You would use our scattering to multiply Your glory to the four corners of the earth, that all creation might sing Your praise. In the Name of Jesus I pray. Amen.

God Redeems Individuals and Families – 1 Chronicles 1-2 – 2026 Day 36

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read through the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 5, 1 Chronicles 1-2

On the surface, 1 Chronicles 1-2 is just a bunch of genealogies. Look deeper and you’ll see God’s hand of redemption and restoration.

Unique and United – Romans 15-16 – 2026 Day 35

Published on by kendraskeLeave a comment

Read through the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 4, Romans 15-16

At our church’s women’s retreat several years ago, I shared two messages from Romans 15:5-6, “May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

God has designed each of His children to be unique individuals as well as valuable parts of His united body.

Check them out here:

Part 1 – Unique

Part 2 – United

Heavenly Father, Thank You for creating me. Help me to remember that I am Your creation, that You have purpose for my life, that there are good works designed especially for me to do. And thank You for making me a member of Your body. Knit together the lives of Your children that we will glorify You, each singing our own more into one harmonious voice. Make us an orchestra of praise to You. Amen.
