Daily Bible Reading – June 2021, God’s Word of Hope

DAY 7 OF 30

June 7


Introduction


Followers are told to observe common cultural conventions of the time regarding marriage. Wives are to submit to their husbands so that their conduct will bring about a conversion among husbands who are not believers, and husbands are instructed to treat their wives with respect. The entire community of believers is given words of encouragement during times of suffering for doing what is right.




Today’s Scripture Reading 


1 Peter 3:1-22




Today’s Key Verse:  1 Peter 3:15, 16a


Have reverence for Christ in your hearts, and honor him as Lord. Be ready at all times to answer anyone who asks you to explain the hope you have in you, but do it with gentleness and respect.




Reflect


Most likely the suffering referred to in today’s reading pertains to some type of harassment the Christian community may have had to endure. They were looked upon with suspicion and hostility because of their faith practices. Have you ever had to bear witness to your faith in the midst of a hostile environment? In what ways can you prepare yourself to be ready “to answer anyone who asks you to explain the hope you have in you”?




Pray


Holy God, nurture me each day with your Word so that I will always be ready to explain the hope that is in me and proclaim the good news of your love and salvation. Teach me to do so with gentleness and respect so that my words bring glory to you. Bind all people together as one in the body of Christ. Amen.

Those preparing for marriage




Tomorrow’s Reading


1 Peter 4:1-19: Christians are called upon to be good managers of God’s gifts.
