Daily Bible Reading, January 2023 - God’s Saving Word: Unity in Christ JesusBài mẫu

January 2 Introduction Jesus came to serve God as a faithful high priest and to sacrifice himself to forgive sins. Because he suffered and was tempted, he can now help us when we are tempted. Scripture Reading Hebrews 2:1-18 Today’s Key Verse: Hebrews 2:10 It was only right that God, who creates and preserves all things, should make Jesus perfect through suffering, in order to bring many children to share his glory. For Jesus is the one who leads them to salvation. Reflect The author of Hebrews states that, when Jesus was fully human, he became lower than the angels for a while and that he humbly obeyed God and died for everyone (verse 9). What does Jesus’s sacrificial death mean to you? Reread verses 17 and 18. What are your thoughts about Jesus experiencing temptation and suffering so that he can help us? Pray Lord Jesus, you are my faithful and merciful High Priest. Thank you for the sacrifice you made for me in order that I may receive forgiveness of my sins and everlasting salvation. Amen. And now, join us in praying for the struggling people in the Arabian Gulf. Lord God, the loss of jobs and livelihoods last year brought great hardship to many people living in the Arabian Gulf. A member of a church in the Gulf said that many people are very poor economically and spiritually. But thanks to Bible-A-Month Partners, hurting people in the Arabian Gulf are now finding hope and healing in the Bible. Your Word, Lord God, is transforming lives, and we join with the people in giving you thanks that they now have beautiful Bibles in their mother language. Amen. Tomorrow’s Reading Hebrews 3:1-19: Jesus is greater than Moses.
