Scripture Reading

Romans 11:25-36

Today’s Key Verse: Romans 11:33

How great are God’s riches! How deep are his wisdom and knowledge! Who can explain his decisions? Who can understand his ways?

Reflect

Throughout the readings these past five days, the apostle Paul has been expressing his hope for all Israel to accept salvation through faith in Christ. What were your thoughts as you read verses 28-32? What do these verses teach you about God’s mercy? In closing, in verses 33 and 34 Paul quotes from Isaiah 55:8 and 40:13. Have you ever contemplated God’s wisdom?

Pray

I praise you, Lord God, for your wisdom, steadfast love, and abundant mercy. To you be glory forever! Amen.
