Daily Bible Reading, January 2023 - God’s Saving Word: Unity in Christ Jesus

DAY 1 OF 31

January 1

Introduction

The Letter to the Hebrews is a teaching sermon that is designed to help explain what the new Christian faith is all about. Today’s passage explains that the ancient prophets spoke God’s message to his people, but now God has sent Jesus to tell God’s message, achieve forgiveness for humanity’s sins, and rule over all creation forever.

Scripture Reading

Hebrews 1:1-14

Today’s Key Verse: Hebrews 1:3a

He reflects the brightness of God’s glory and is the exact likeness of God’s own being.

Reflect

Today’s passage speaks of Jesus “achieving forgiveness for the sins of all human beings,” (verse 3) and of him being in heaven, sitting “at the right side of God,” a traditional way of referring to the glorified Christ (see Psalm 110:1; Matthew 26:64). God has placed Jesus over all things, including the angels (verse 4). How is God’s Son described in today’s reading?

Pray

Lord Jesus, as I begin this new year and commit to engaging your Word each day, help me to listen when you speak, and fill me with life anew, so that I may become your faithful servant. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Hebrews 2:1-18: Jesus is our merciful and faithful High Priest.
