Today's reading for our 90 day journey is Joshua 12 - 24. Let us look back a moment to chapter 10 verses 12-14 You will note that Joshua spoke to the LORD, and gave command for the sun to stand still. Now from a human point of view that would be impossible; but our God …

Day Fifteen – Be Strong and Courageous
The reading for today is Deuteronomy 33 - Joshua 11. Moses gives the last words to the Israelites with words of encouragement. He is also given a view of the Promised Land before he dies and is buried by the LORD. If you will remember he is not allowed; neither was Aaron; to enter the …
Day Fourteen – The Hanging Tree
In reading Deuteronomy 19 – 32 today we read these verses, “And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him …
Day Thirteen – God’s Grace
Remembering that God is gracious should not be too difficult of a matter. However, when we as human beings and as Christians get side tracked from the obvious, ie., God’s grace; it is generally due to blessings we have received. We tend, at times, to be side tracked, and caught up in the blessing rather …
Day Twelve -Getting Ready
The Scripture reading for today is Numbers 28 - Deuteronomy 5. The tribes of Rueben, Gad, and half tribe of Manasseh are given the land on the east side of Jordan; after they vow for the military men to cross over and fight for and with the rest of their brethren. Things are settled concerning …
Day Eleven – Prophet’s Doom
The prophet of God was to be faithful to God, God’s Word, and to God’s people. The prophet of God was to speak the truth, speak what God said, and on the immediate surface of things it almost seems that Balaam was faithful in those things. However, What was he doing going with the enemy …
Day Ten – Hearing God; Going His Way
Reading Numbers 1 - 14 today, we find an accounting; and there; probably by some people’s accounting; is little grace. However, I find that assessment of “little grace” hard to accept. It is, afterall, by God’s grace that He gave us Law. The very first sentence of Numbers is, "And the LORD spake unto Moses …
Day Nine – I Am The LORD
Leviticus 15 - 27 is the reading for today's ninety day journey. As we look at Leviticus with all its commandments, requirements for holiness, laws for dealing with body sores, and skins rashes, and leprosy, sexual relationships, eating; the right kinds of animals, insects and fish to eat, etc. it seems like it would be …
Day Eight – Be Holy
We read today from Leviticus 2 - 14, and we see that God is holy. Lest anyone think that this is only an Old Testament teaching; think again, for the apostle Peter wrote: "But as He which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation; because it is written, …
Day Seven – To the Glory of the LORD
Reading for today is Exodus 29 through Leviticus 1... When Moses was on the Mount receiving these instructions and heavenly designs the people down below were growing restless, beginning to complain; and due to this began crying out for Aaron to build them a “god”. They have previously said, “All that the LORD says we …
Day Six – Standing Between
The reading for today's part of our Bible reading journey through the Bible is Exodus 16 through 28. Be blessed. It seems in the reading in early Genesis that Adam must have had a fellowship with God; walking with Him in the garden on a regular basis; before there was sin in the garden. After …
Day Five – GOD Calls a Deliverer
Today's reading is from Exodus 3 - 15. From the death of Joseph we go to Exodus, showing us that death is not the end. In Exodus we find that God hears the cries of the children of Israel crying for help. He hears their cry, prepares a man from Egypt – one of their …
Day Four – Until The Time Is Right
There is a great blessing in reading through the Bible in a more speedy way. It is exciting, challenging, and enlightening. It also seems to help put it all together into order. Our reading this morning covers Genesis 40 – Exodus 2. We have gone from the days of creation; Adam and Eve in the …
Day Three – GOD Is Sovereign
Many trust in what is called fate. Some trust in faith as though faith has power of its own. “Just have faith” is what is heard quite often. What is the difference in “fate” and “faith”. Fate is events guided by events to the best of my knowledge; “What ever will be will be” mentality. …
Day Two – The Men of Genesis Promise
These men all had something in common. What is that commonality? They are all sinners, deceivers, liars and tricksters. Yes! Even Abraham the patriarch of Judaism and Christianity. Abraham had the promises of God for the land of Canaan. Verse 18 of chapter 15 of Genesis states, “In the same day the LORD made a …
