Daily Bible Reading, January 2023 - God’s Saving Word: Unity in Christ JesusSýnishorn
January 13
Introduction
Jesus calls his twelve disciples together and commissions them to continue the mission he has initiated.
Scripture Reading
Matthew 10:1-15
Today’s Key Verse: Matthew 10:7
[Jesus said:] “Go and preach, ‘The Kingdom of heaven is near!’”
Reflect
What instructions does Jesus give to his disciples? What qualities does Jesus require of his followers? If you were present to hear Jesus’s words directly, how do you think you would have responded? In what ways do you carry out Jesus’s mission?
Pray
Lord Jesus, just as you challenged your disciples to share the gospel, you challenge us today to spread your gospel of love and salvation throughout the world. Open the hearts and minds of all who need to hear your message, and empower me to share the Good News. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Matthew 10:16-31: Jesus foretells of coming persecutions.
