TODAY'S EPISODE:

Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast! Today is January 21st, 2025, and we’re stepping into day 21 of our immersive journey through the Scriptures. I'm Hunter, your host, and your brother in this spiritual adventure. Together, we dive into the Bible each day to refocus our hearts on the living Word of God, Jesus Christ.

In this episode, we begin a new book with the reading of Exodus chapters 1-2, explore the depth of Psalm 88, and delve into the teachings of Jesus in Luke 21. As we navigate the rise and fall of kingdoms, the trials of Moses, and the forewarnings of Jesus, we are reminded of the unshakeable and eternal nature of God’s Word. Amid life's chaos and uncertainty, we find solace in the steadfast presence of Christ, the living Word.

Join us in this reflective reading and prayerful journey as we seek wisdom, comfort, and a deeper connection with God. Let’s abide in Him together.

So, grab your Bible and let’s get started!

TODAY'S DEVOTION:

Come early and receive from him. Luke tells us at the end of this passage that the crowds gathered at the temple early each morning to hear Jesus. That may be what you're doing right now. Early in the morning, you've come to hear him. We live in a world in flux where city walls and kingdoms fall, where babies are born in perilous times like Moses. In that kind of world, where the earth shakes and oceans rise and fall, there's one thing that doesn't shift or collapse or crumble.

That one thing, Jesus says, is the word of God. When we see the rattle and the rise and the fall, the collapse and the chaos, when we see all these things take place, we can know that the kingdom of God is near. It ought to comfort us that when things are falling apart, the kingdom of God is rising up. Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear, says our Lord. When things are falling apart at the seams, the word of God keeps things sewn together. The messiah of Israel, the enduring word of God being spoken of here is a person. He is called the living word, and we can call on him like those in Luke 21. Early each day, amidst all of life's uncertainties, the ebb and the flow, the rise and the fall, we can come to him. He is our refuge and our strength, our comfort and wisdom.

We can come each day to be reminded of our new identity in him. We can discover what it means to abide in him, the living word, to live in him as he abides in us. We can come and experience the joy and the faithfulness and the goodness of it all. John recorded these words of Jesus. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me. If you abide in me and my words, abide in you. Ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. Let's discover more and more of this, every day of our life, in him.

Let's come to him, the living word, each day, like those in Luke 21. Magnificent buildings and even kingdoms, they come and go. Sometimes it all just falls apart. But there is a person, the living word of God, Jesus, and he will keep us together. Heaven and earth will fade away, but the living word of God, Jesus, remains. So let's keep coming to him each day to receive all that he has for us.

And that's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so.

TODAY'S PRAYERS:

Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.

Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen

And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray...

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.
