Daily Bible Reading – June 2022: God’s Renewing Word of New Life in the Spiritنموونە

June 4

Introduction

The apostle Paul says that all creation longs to be set free from its slavery to decay and that our current suffering can’t compare to the glory that will one day be revealed. The Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness, and we are assured that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love.

Scripture Reading

Romans 8:18-39

Today’s Key Verse: Romans 8:39b

There is nothing in all creation that will ever be able to separate us from the love of God which is ours through Christ Jesus our Lord.

Reflect

What is the hope that Paul talks about in verses 18-25? Have you ever found it hard to pray? If so, how does the Holy Spirit help in such times? Reread verses 31-39. What questions does Paul ask? How does he answer them? What verses in today’s reading do you find especially meaningful?

Pray

Lord God, you know my weaknesses and my innermost thoughts. Thank you for your Holy Spirit that pleads on my behalf when I find it hard to pray. With a humble heart, I thank you for assuring me that, through Christ Jesus, I can never be separated from your love. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading
