Daily Bible Reading - September 2020 God's Life-Giving Word of WisdomPrzykład
September 3
Introduction
Jesus describes what a life of discipleship entails – trusting in God rather than seeking to acquire wealth. Jesus reminds his followers that they are always in God’s tender care.
Scripture Reading
Matthew 6:19-34
Today’s Key Verse: Matthew 6:20, 21
“Store up riches for yourselves in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and robbers cannot break in and steal. For your heart will always be where your riches are.”
Reflect
Reread verses 25-34. Are there things you worry about or are anxious about? Do you find what Jesus teaches to be comforting? Why or why not? How do Jesus’ teachings in this entire passage shape your identity as a disciple or follower of Jesus?
Pray
Gracious God, you call me to trust and depend on you. My identity comes through my relationship with you and not on any status that is based on material gain. May I seek after your Kingdom first, trusting in your love and care. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Loan officers serving in financial institutions.
Tomorrow’s Reading
