Daily Bible Reading—July 2024, God’s Guiding Word: Mercy and Forgiveness

DAY 24 OF 31

July 24

Introduction

Zephaniah 2:1–15: Zephaniah urges the people of Judah to repent, and he declares that the nations surrounding Israel are doomed.

Today’s Key Verse: Zephaniah 2:3a

Turn to the LORD, all you humble people of the land, who obey his commands. Do what is right, and humble yourselves before the LORD.

Reflect

If possible, consult a biblical map and see if you can identify the nations that are mentioned in today’s reading. What punishments do they face? Why? What warning is given to Nineveh, “the city that is so proud of its own power” (verse 15)?

Pray

I turn to you, Lord God, and humble myself before you. Teach me to do what is right and to obey your commands. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Zephaniah 3:1–20: The people’s punishment will come to an end.
