Daily Bible Reading – May 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word of FaithSample
May 4
Introduction
Rules for correct worship and the duties of the priests, according to the first covenant, are described. This description is contrasted with Christ who, as our High Priest, offered his own blood as an offering and perfect sacrifice for our eternal salvation.
Today’s Scripture: Hebrews 9:15a
Christ is the one who arranges a new covenant, so that those who have been called by God may receive the eternal blessings that God has promised.
Today’s Reading
Hebrews 9:1-22
Reflect
How are worship rituals, according to the first covenant, contrasted with the new covenant and what Christ has done? What does Christ’s sacrifice mean to you?
Pray
Lord Jesus, thank you for sacrificing yourself so that I might obtain eternal salvation through you. Teach me to live according to your will and to serve you always. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Church administrators
Tomorrow’s Reading
