Daily Bible Reading — January 2024, God’s Guiding Word: DiscipleshipSýnishorn
January 25
Introduction
Acts 9:1–25: Saul was a Pharisee who sought to destroy the church by persecuting those who believed in Jesus. Saul encounters Jesus on the road to Damascus, and Jesus chooses Saul for a special mission. Saul begins his ministry by preaching in Damascus; his life is threatened, but his followers help him escape.
Today’s Key Verse: Acts 9:20
[Saul] went straight to the synagogues and began to preach that Jesus was the Son of God.
Reflect
Describe Saul’s encounter with Jesus. Why do you suppose Jesus chose him? What was to be Saul’s mission (verse 15)? How would you describe the mission of your community of faith?
Pray
Lord Jesus, you have called me to follow you. Anoint me with your Holy Spirit and empower me to bear witness to the Good News of your salvation. May my words and actions this day reflect your saving love and grace. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Acts 9:26–43: Saul goes to Jerusalem, and Peter travels to Lydda and Joppa.
