Daily Bible Reading – September 2021, God’s Word of Wisdom

DAY 10 OF 30

September 10

Introduction

In today’s reading, Jesus uses the parable about a shrewd manager to illustrate that “worldly wealth” can be used to make friends and serve others; but when such wealth runs out, God offers something more valuable – an eternal home with God forever.

Today’s Scripture Reading 

Luke 16:1-13

Today’s Key Verse: Luke 16:13

[Jesus said:] “No servant can be the slave of two masters; such a slave will hate one and love the other or will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” 

Reflect

Why was the shrewd manager praised by his master? Why do you think Jesus told this parable? Reread verses 10-13 in which Jesus explains the implications of the parable. How do you interpret these verses? 

Pray

Almighty God, I seek to be among “people who belong to the light” and to serve you with an obedient heart. Keep me faithful and help me to trust in the “true wealth” that you offer – salvation and eternal life with you. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Tomorrow’s Reading
