Glen Park Gospel Church >> Bible Studies >> Favourite Readings #10

The eighth year of favourite Bible readings. The Read Through the Bible in Three Years plan is still running on this web site and can be followed on the above 3 Year Bible link. This year however, we continue with a year of the most favourite Bible passages grouped together under one or more themes each month. You will notice that the reading may be short, sometimes only a few verses, seldom more than twenty. Also you will probably read some passages more than once, but in a different context.

If you are settled into a regular pattern with your devotional time, please continue to enjoy it, but if you are not in the habit of regular Bible reading; here is your opportunity. Make a habit of selecting something from each reading to encourage and fuel your prayer time. A point of praise; encouragement to pray; a lesson to learn or an example to follow. Use the Bible passage to keep your prayer time active and interesting. Look for God to speak to you through His word and wait on Him. He is not in a hurry. Then share this blessing with someone else.

Each month we will update the tables below to include the current month's readings, until eventually another full year is portrayed. It will then always be available from our Archive of Study sections.

Favourite Psalms
God promises to guide His people. He will do this if we cooperate with Him. He guides us in many ways. This month's readings explore some of these ways that God works in people's lives. We need to lay our need before Him and look for His answer. His part is to guide; ours is to hear and heed His word. (There are some warnings here too.)

TOP || Previous || Next February

The four Gospels tell the Jesus story from different perspectives. Of a total 3920 verses in the Gospels, 1865 or 48% are Jesus' own words, and in 10% of these He quotes or alludes to the Old Testament. This month we examine some of these in his daily ministry. They are mainly teaching, rather than prophetic.

This month we are thinking about the names, attributes, works and blessings of God hidden in the Psalms. Not all are old favourites. Read the portion in its context and select one or more of these for meditation through the day. The final selection leads us toward the celebration of Easter.

Listen, and I will teach you what wise men have said. Study their teachings and you will be glad if you remember them and can quote them. I want you to put your trust in the Lord: that is why I am going to tell them to you now. I have written down thirty sayings for you. They contain knowledge and good advice, and they will teach you what the truth really is. Then when you are sent to find it out you will bring back the right answer. Proverbs 22:17-21 (GNB)

TOP || Previous || Next June

"The Eternal God is your refuge and dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms." The concept of God as a refuge is found throughout the Bible, either as an idea or a metaphor. The word in the Old Testament has the combined idea of a place to flee from danger and then to dwell in safety. You will probably find either 'flee' or 'refuge' depending on the Bible version you are reading, but in your meditation remember the full sense and put yourself by faith under God's all loving care as day follows day.

Every Christian is called to 'live by faith'. It is not the preserve of the pastor or missionary. We read of 'O ye of little faith'. 'Lord, "Increase our faith," ' then 'so great faith'. Faith can be measured, and faith can grow. Faith can do wonderful things if it is vested correctly in the Son of God.

Matthew in his Gospel sorts his material into groups of two, three, five and seven. It was an Hebrew writing style that aids memory and emphasises points. August readings take up some of the three groups. As you read try to remember the point highlighted by that grouping.

These readings are small, mostly just two verses. Look for words and ideas in common. Use each one to fuel your meditation and worship. Then look for other instances of the same idea. Keep a note pad as you go. You can build up quite a collection to share with some one else.

He is Able. Our God 'is able'. The word 'able' tells of power; the strength when called on to achieve, to get things done. This months readings examine this word as the Bible uses it to tell about God's ability. The word has been translated in different ways, so you may not always easily identify it, but the idea is there. Meditate on the concept. Use it to help your trust to grow.
