In the morning let us prepare for the new day with the words of the New Testament and in the evening let us reflect on how God moves in the lives of his people.

Morning Reading from the New Testament: John 15

“I am the vine, you are the branches. You are my friends if you do what I command. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you.”

Evening Reading from the Old Testament: 2 Chronicles 17-19

Jehoshaphat became king and was devoted to the LORD. He sent his officials to teach the law. He grew greater and built fortresses.

Ahab and Jehoshaphat planned for war. Micaiah said, “I saw Israel scattered. Your prophets are lying.” Ahab was killed in battle.

Jehoshaphat returned to Jerusalem. He appointed judges and said to them, “Judge carefully, for with the LORD there is no injustice.”
