Daily Bible Reading, July 2022: God’s Renewing Word of Faithနမူနာ

July 7

Introduction

Moses continues offering his blessing to the nation tribe by tribe. The concluding verses (26-29) read like a victory hymn in praise of God’s deliverance and, along with verses 2-5 from yesterday’s reading, form a celebratory framework surrounding the tribal blessings.

Scripture Reading

Deuteronomy 33:18-29

Today’s Key Verse: Deuteronomy 33:27a

God has always been your defense; his eternal arms are your support.

Reflect

What is Moses’ blessing for each of the remaining six tribes cited in today’s reading? Reread verses 26-29. How is God described? What images for God resonate with you? Why?

Pray

No god is like you, O God! Your majesty is revealed in the wonders of your creation. When I feel helpless or troubled, you come to my aid and your eternal arms support me. I thank and praise you for all your mighty works. Amen.
