Daily Bible Reading, August 2022: God’s Renewing Word of Mercy and Forgiveness

DAY 23 OF 31

August 23

Introduction

Joseph instructs his servant to conceal his silver cup in Benjamin’s sack. When the cup is found, Joseph tells his brothers that Benjamin will become his slave.

Scripture Reading

Genesis 44:1-17

Today’s Key Verse: Genesis 44:2a

[Joseph said:] “Put my silver cup in the top of the youngest brother’s sack, together with the money for his grain.”

Reflect

Joseph instructs his servant to accuse the brothers of committing the serious crime of taking Joseph’s silver cup, claiming that the cup was used to practice divination, that is, telling future events by reading objects that are put into liquid in the cup. What was Joseph’s purpose in planting the cup in Benjamin’s sack?

Pray

Loving God, I come into your presence, trusting in your mercy and grace. You know my thoughts and what is in my heart this day. In faith, I turn my cares over to you, knowing that all things are possible with you. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Genesis 44:18-34: Judah pleads for Benjamin.
