Daily Bible Reading — Sustained By God’s Word Of Spiritual RenewalSample
June 7
Introduction
Paul reminds the Galatians that Christ has set them free from the yoke of slavery by which the Law had them bound. He warns them about those who are seeking to convince them that male Gentile Christians be circumcised, and he exhorts the Galatians to let the Spirit direct their lives.
Today’s Scripture: Galatians 5:25 (GNT)
The Spirit has given us life; he must also control our lives.
Today’s Reading
Galatians 5:1-26
Reflect
How do you interpret what Paul says about freedom? Does such freedom entail responsibility? What impact does this freedom have on the way you live? Compare the list in verses 19-21 with the list in verses 22 and 23. How does Paul contrast the Spirit and human nature? In what ways does the Spirit direct your life?
Pray
Spirit of God, produce in me love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control. Guide me to live as a child of God. These things I ask in Jesus’s name. Amen.
