Tomorrow is the New Year! How quickly this seems to come around when you’re 75!
Will you join me in 2022 in reading the New Testament? Last year I read the whole Bible using the Discipleship Journal Bible Reading Plan. It’s still there for you if you want to read it all. But this year, I’ll go a bit slower and have my Daily Time with God in the New Testament, following this plan: 5 x 5 x 5: five days a week, five minutes/day, one chapter in the New Testament. 5 days x 52 weeks = 260 chapters in the New Testament! How easy is that?
7 The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
8 the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;
9 the fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever; the rules of the LORD are true, and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.
11 Moreover, by them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward. (Psalm 19.7 – 11, ESV)
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. (2 Timothy 3.16, 17, NIV (1984))
