Lord, Let Me Finish the Course Well! – Acts 20 – 2026 Day 17

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Proverbs 17, Acts 20

Proverbs 17:6a ESV — “Grandchildren are the crown of the aged,”

Acts 20:18-21, 24 ESV — And when they came to him, he said to them: “You yourselves know how I lived among you the whole time from the first day that I set foot in Asia, serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials that happened to me through the plots of the Jews; how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house, testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ…. But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.”

Lord, help me to run this race and finish this race well – for Your glory.

There is a way that seems RIGHT to a man, but its end is the way to DEATH – Acts 18 – 2026 Day 14

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Proverbs 14, Acts 18

“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death.” (Proverbs 14:12 ESV)


“Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked. But others said, “We will hear you again about this.” So Paul went out from their midst. But some men joined him and believed, among whom also were Dionysius the Areopagite and a woman named Damaris and others with them.” (Acts 17:32-34 ESV)

What You Worship as Unknown, this I Proclaim to You – Acts 16-17 – 2026 Day 13

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Proverbs 13, Acts 16-17

So Paul, standing in the midst of the Areopagus, said:
“Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious. For as I passed along and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar
with this inscription:
‘To the unknown god.’

What therefore you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you. The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.

And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, that they should seek God, and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him.
Yet he is actually not far from each one of us,

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Proverbs 10, Acts 13

Doing wrong is like a joke to a fool, but wisdom is pleasure to a man of understanding. What the wicked dreads will come upon him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted.

Let it be known to you therefore, brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and by him everyone who believes is freed from everything from which you could not be freed by the law of Moses.

So, You Say You Want to be Wise? – Acts 12 – 2026 Day 9

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Proverbs 9, Acts 12

Reading Proverbs 9 hits me hard. 🎯

As a teenage atheist, I thought I knew it all. But I didn’t. I was a fool. I didn’t listen to anyone except me … And those who agreed with me.

If you say you want to be wise,

  • Listen to wisdom.
  • Listen to the Word.
  • Listen to wise counsel.
  • Listen when your friend rebukes you.
  • Listen when the Spirit convicts you.

Listen.

Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you.

Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.

Proverbs 9:8-9 ESV

Acts 10:17-18 ESV — Now while Peter was inwardly perplexed as to what the vision that he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon’s house, stood at the gate and called out to ask whether Simon who was called Peter was lodging there.
