Daily Bible Reading – June 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word Of Spiritual RenewalSample

June 7

Introduction

From Athens, the apostle Paul travels to Corinth and meets Aquila and Priscilla with whom he stays. He has a vision in which the Lord encourages him to keep on speaking and leading people to faith. While many in Corinth believe Paul’s message and are baptized, he is brought to court by his opponents but released by the Roman governor.

Today’s Reading 

Acts 18:1-17

Today’s Key Verse: Acts 18:9, 10a

One night, Paul had a vision in which the Lord said to him, “Do not be afraid, but keep on speaking and do not give up, for I am with you.”

Reflect

Today’s reading reveals Paul’s occupation as part of his missionary strategy in order to support himself. What was it? What message was he preaching in the synagogue? Why did Paul’s opponents bring him to court? Why did Gallio, the Roman governor, release him? Why do you think Sosthenes was beaten? 

Pray

Lord Jesus, in the safety and shelter of your love, I need not fear. When trials come my way, I know that you are with me, guiding and protecting me. Thank you for your steadfast love and faithfulness. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who are unjustly accused and facing trial
