Daily Bible Reading — December 2023, God’s Saving Word: Joy

DAY 6 OF 31

December 6

Introduction

Zephaniah 2:1–15: Zephaniah urges the people of Judah to repent, and he declares that the nations surrounding Israel are doomed.

Today’s Key Verse: Zephaniah 2:3a

Turn to the LORD, all you humble people of the land, who obey his commands. Do what is right, and humble yourselves before the LORD.

Reflect

If possible, consult a biblical map and see if you can identify the various nations that are mentioned in today’s reading. What punishments will they face? Why? What warning is given to a “city that is so proud of its own power” (verse 15)?

Pray

I turn to you, Lord God, and humble myself before you. Teach me to do what is right and to obey your commands. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Zephaniah 3:1–20: The people’s punishment will come to an end.
