Daily Bible Reading Guide, June 2023 - "God’s Saving Word: Spiritual Renewal"ಮಾದರಿ

June 1

Introduction

In today’s reading, the apostle Paul writes to the Corinthians about spiritual gifts. He describes how the Spirit gives God’s people special gifts and says that there is one Spirit that offers many gifts, including wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing powers, and more.

Scripture Reading

1 Corinthians 12:1-11

Today’s Key Verse:1 Corinthians 12:7

The Spirit’s presence is shown in some way in each person for the good of all.

Reflect

Spiritual gifts are of two general types—something that God gives for the benefit of the community of believers, and some special ability given to an individual to carry out a job or meet a need in the life of the church. What spiritual gifts does Paul list in this passage? What is the purpose of these gifts? Which of these gifts do you have? Which of these gifts do you see in others? Which of these gifts do you wish to cultivate?

Pray

Loving God, you are generous and kind in bestowing the gift of your Holy Spirit on all who follow you. Teach me to manifest the presence of your Sprit within me in ways that reflect your love and care. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

1 Corinthians 12:12-31: The apostle Paul teaches about the church as the body of Christ with many parts.
