Daily Bible Reading—February 2024, God’s Guiding Word: LoveSýnishorn
February 19
Introduction
John 7:25–52: Jesus continues to speak openly in the Temple, and some of the religious leaders seek to have Jesus arrested. Division arises among the people listening to Jesus.
Today’s Key Verse: John 7:37b, 38a
Jesus stood up and said in a loud voice, “Whoever is thirsty should come to me, and whoever believes in me should drink.”
Reflect
What caused division among the people listening to Jesus’s teachings (verses 40–44)? Why did some believe that Jesus was the Messiah and others did not? What did Nicodemus say to the religious authorities (verses 50–51)? Within your community of faith, are there times when divisions occur? If so, what are the causes? How are such matters resolved?
Pray
Holy Jesus, I believe that you are the Messiah. Yes, Lord, I believe in you and thirst for your Word and the life-giving water you offer. Draw me close to you and teach me to do your will. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
John 8:1–11: The religious leaders seek to test Jesus.
