Daily Bible Reading – May 2021 God’s Word of Spiritual Renewal

DAN 26 OD 31

May 26

Introduction

At the end of Paul’s third missionary journey, he returned to Jerusalem where he was arrested and called upon to defend himself and his message (see Acts 21). Paul asked to be tried by the Roman Emperor (see Acts 25). As a Roman citizen, Paul had the right to have his case heard by the Emperor or the Emperor’s representative in Rome. It was the highest court in the land. Paul was then brought to Caesarea by Festus, the governor of Judea, to appear before King Agrippa. In today’s reading, Paul appears before King Agrippa who ruled over areas north and east of Lake Galilee. Paul tells the king of his conversion and his work among the Gentiles.

Today’s Scripture Reading: Acts 26:1-32

Today’s Key Verse: Acts 26:6

[Paul said:] “And now I stand here to be tried because of the hope I have in the promise that God made to our ancestors.”

Reflect

What did Paul say in his defense? Do you think that Paul was trying to convert Agrippa? What did Agrippa say to Paul (verse 28)? What was Agrippa’s response to Paul’s case (verses 30-32)?

Have you ever been called upon to defend your beliefs? If so, how did you respond? 


Pray

Lord God, I trust in your promises and my hope is in you. Help me today to speak your word of truth with boldness and to obey your teachings. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.

Prayer Concern

All who hold public office


Tomorrow’s Reading
