"And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in His heart, 'I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination …

Day Seventy Six – Jesus and The Scriptures
One of the things which is quite apparent to me as I read the gospels is that the Scriptures are important to the ministry, life, and will of the Father in the life of Jesus. We can see that in the 24th chapter of Luke. Our reading for today is Luke 19 through John 8. …
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 …
Learning to Fear the LORD God
"And Moses wrote this law, and delivered it unto the priests the sons of Levi, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and unto all the elders of Israel. And Moses commanded them, saying, 'At the end of every seven years, in the solemnity of the year of release, in the feast …
The Word is Very Near… It Is In Your Heart
"For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off. It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, 'Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?' Neither is it beyond the …
They Are His Laws
"This day the LORD thy God hath commanded thee to do these statutes and judgments: thou shalt therefore keep and do them with all thine heart, and with all thy soul. Thou hast avouched the LORD this day to be thy God, and to walk in His ways, and to keep His statutes, and His …
