Gba ohun èlò náàDaily Bible Reading – February 2023, "God’s Saving Word: Love"Àpẹrẹ
February 19
Introduction
The Second Letter of John was written by “the Elder” to “the dear Lady and to her children,” probably meaning a local church and its members. The brief message is an appeal to love one another and a warning against deceivers and their teachings.
Scripture Reading
2 John
Today’s Key Verse: 2 John 6b
The command, as you have all heard from the beginning, is that you must all live in love.
Reflect
Along with encouraging the Lord’s followers, a warning about deceivers is given. What is the message the deceivers are spreading? What does the letter say about love? About truth? How can people know what is true? How do Christians today show love for God and for others?
Pray
Lord Jesus, thank you for placing your truth in my heart. Give me the mind to discern your truth and your ways, that my beliefs and actions may reflect your will. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
