Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Peace And Justice

DAY 4 OF 31

  


October 4


Introduction


The Israelites are reminded that it is God who freed them from slavery in Egypt and that they are now the “LORD’s slaves,” called to serve God and obey his commands.


Today’s Scripture: Leviticus 25:55


Israelites cannot be permanent slaves, because the people of Israel are the LORD’s slaves. He brought them out of Egypt; he is the LORD their God.


Today’s Reading 


Leviticus 25:39-55


Reflect


How were the people of God instructed to treat fellow Israelites who sold themselves as slaves? Today’s reading refers to the Israelites as “the LORD’s slaves.” What does being a slave of the LORD mean to you?


Pray


Holy God, I seek to obey your commands. Teach me your ways so that all I do and say this day is in accord with your will. I trust in your steadfast love and care. Amen.
