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

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.

A Prayer for Purity – Romans 14 – 2026 Day 34

Read through the Bible in 2 Years: Psalm 3, Romans 14

Pray with me.

Heavenly Father, May my life be lived daily “in honor of the Lord.” Whether I eat or whether I abstain, let me be fully convinced in my own mind, walking by faith and not by flesh. I want to be prepared to give an account to You for how I have lived. I am thankful that You are my judge because You are impartial and righteous and merciful and wise, and I am selfish and foolish and petty. I am not my brother’s judge. You are. You are the all-knowing, all-righteous judge of the world. I pray that I will pursue what makes for peace and building up the body in unity and holiness. I pray that I would not do anything that would cause my brother or sister to stumble. May the body of Christ be pure and holy, without blemish, in word, thought, and deed, to the glory of Your Name, and may that begin with me. In the perfect name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior I pray. Amen.

The Victory Belongs to the LORD, not YOU – Acts 27-28 – 2026 Day 21

The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the LORD.

For this very night there stood before me an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I worship, and he said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar.

Repent, Turn to God, Walk in Your New Life – Acts 25-26 – 2026 Day 20

Read the Bible in 2 Years: Proverbs 20, Acts 25-26

And [Paul] said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’

And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. But rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you, delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’

“Therefore, O King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision, but declared first to those in Damascus, then in Jerusalem and throughout all the region of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, performing deeds in keeping with their repentance.”

Acts 26:15-20 ESV

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.
