Daily Bible Reading — January 2024, God’s Guiding Word: Discipleship

DAY 8 OF 31

January 8

Introduction

Colossians 4:2–18: In today’s reading, Paul reminds the Colossians to be persistent in prayer and he encourages them to treat nonbelievers in a way that demonstrates Christian love. He concludes the letter with personal greetings to the community of believers.

Today’s Key Verse: Colossians 4:2

Be persistent in prayer, and keep alert as you pray, giving thanks to God.

Reflect

Paul indicates that we are to pray for others and that prayer is a meaningful way to keep us bound together within a community of faith. Why does Paul exhort the Colossians to be persistent in prayer? What does a prayerful life mean to you?

Pray

Holy God, I praise and thank you for your mercy, love, and grace. Help me to be persistent in prayer and draw me close to you. In Jesus’s holy name, I pray, Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Mark 1:1–20: John the Baptist prepares the way for Jesus.
