Daily Devotion

Every day (or at least most days) I take time to read the Bible (I know...shocking, right?). I have been able to read through the Bible cover to cover this way. It is a great way to spend time with God and in His word. I read some from the Old Testament, New Testament and Psalms. I know that there are people who want to have guidance on what to read, so for those of you that want to read along with me, I will post my daily readings here, and if I have any thoughts or any verses that jump out at me I will let you know! Happy Reading!

Numbers 2
That had to be mighty impressive to see all those people surrounding the Tabernacle! How cool it will be on the last day when we see all the people surrounding God as he Tabernacles with us!

Psalm 79
Verse 9 strikes me as the meat of this psalm, "Help us, O God of our salvation". May this be our prayer ever day.

Acts 19-20
I am amazed at how the Holy Spirit lead Paul all over to preach and teach. I wonder sometimes where The Spirit is leading me. I take comfort however that, even though Paul was a great preacher, people feel asleep during his sermons too!

  1. Thanks for starting this blog, PJ! I look forward to reading your insights.

    I'm going to go look up the word tabernacle now. It is a word I've been wondering about for a while and your comment on Numbers 2 just reminded me that I've been wanting to learn about the etymology of that word for a while... :)

  2. Your welcome. I am glad to do it and hope it becomes a blessing for a lot of people.

    While you are exploring the idea of tabernacle think about this: In John 1, when it is normally translated that Jesus Christ came and dwelt among us, the actual Greek there is that he came and Tabernacled among us!
