Daily Bible Reading: November 2021, God’s Word of Praise and ThanksgivingSample

November 30

Introduction

Today’s reading concludes Jesus’s apocalyptic/judgment discourse with a parable to describe the judgment that will take place at his return. Up to this point, warnings have been given about being watchful and ready for Jesus’s return, but today we hear about the judgment that will take place “when the Son of Man comes.” 

Today’s Scripture Reading 

Matthew 25:31-46

Today’s Key Verse:  Matthew 25:34a

“Then the King will say to the people on his right, ‘Come, you that are blessed by my Father!’”

Reflect

How are the two groups of people in today’s reading described?  How will each group be treated? What does the reading teach you about living your life today? According to Jesus, in what ways can people show God’s love to others? In what ways do you show God’s love to others?

Pray

God of grace and mercy, teach me to live in a way that demonstrates your love to others. Amen.

Prayer Concern

The poor and marginalized in our society
