Daily Bible Reading—July 2024, God’s Guiding Word: Mercy and ForgivenessExemplo
July 25
Introduction
Zephaniah 3:1–20: The prophet declares that although Jerusalem is doomed, in time the city will be restored, with humble and righteous people living there. Today’s reading concludes with a song of joy and proclaims an end to the people’s punishment.
Today’s Key Verse: Zephaniah 3:17b
The LORD will take delight in you, and in his love he will give you new life.
Reflect
What does Zephaniah say about the leaders of the people (verses 1–5)? In what ways have they misused their power? Why will Jerusalem and the people of Israel celebrate once again? On what occasions are songs of celebration sung in your community of faith?
Pray
I sing and shout for joy, Lord God, because you are always with me. Your love revives my soul, and I trust in your care. I will praise your holy name forever. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Psalm 32: A prayer of confession.
