Day 110 - Read Philemon 1

Day 121 - Read 1 Peter 3-5

A wife with a pure heart is a witness to her unbelieving husband. Husbands are to respect their wives knowing that believing wives are heirs of an inheritance from God. Love others and do good, even if you suffer from evil acts of others. Water was used to save Noah and his family just as water was used to symbolize the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Everything we do should be to the glory of God. The sins of our past should be left behind. If you suffer as a Christian, commit yourself to God who is faithful to strengthen you. Mature believers and pastors should protect the church spiritually in a loving and humble manner. The devil seeks to devour you. Resist him and hold firm to Jesus who is able to restore you.

Day 120 - Read 1 Peter 1-2

Peter reminded God’s people who were scattered of the salvation made available through Jesus. Your faith is strengthened through persecution and the completion of your salvation will be realized when Jesus returns. God chose His Son to be the perfect sacrifice for all. Live holy lives in obedience to God’s Word, which will endure forever. Live in submission to those in authority. Live in freedom, but do not use your freedom as an excuse to sin. Jesus bore our sins that we might be righteous. We are healed because of His sacrifice, and He has authority over our souls.

Day 119 - Read James 3-5

Man has tamed every creature on earth, but he cannot tame the tongue. The tongue can lead to a man’s destruction. Selfish ambition is evil. Wisdom from God leads to grace and mercy. The humble will receive grace. Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. Do not suppose you know what tomorrow will bring, but trust God who is in control. Trusting and boasting in your own wisdom is evil. Those who have become rich by mistreating others will experience miseries, and earthly riches will rot. Be patient in suffering. Deal honestly and consistently with others. Pray for one another. If you have a need, pray. If you are sick, call for the spiritual leaders to pray over you. Seek to restore the believer who is wandering from faith.

Day 118 - Read James 1-2

James wrote this letter to Jews who were dispersed throughout the region. Spiritual trials (tests) will come in various forms and will reveal a believer’s faith. Anyone in need of wisdom to handle times of testing should ask God for wisdom in faith, without doubt. Doubting God is a sign of a double-minded person, but God will reward those who are faithful. Believers are to be doers of the Word not just hearers of the Word. Doers of the Word love and care for others and maintain lives that are holy. Show mercy to one another. Treat everyone fair and do not judge others. Faith without works is not living faith. Our works tell the true story of our faith.

Day 117 - Read Hebrews 12-13

We have seen God work, and the experience of others are a witness to us of God’s faithfulness. Focus on Jesus and lay aside every distraction that may prevent you from living by faith in Him. Jesus established and has enabled our faith to become complete in Him. God disciplines His children because He loves them. Allow discipline to have its effect and do not become bitter because of godly discipline. Worship God while we have the opportunity. He is all powerful and will sift away those who reject Him. Live according to love and obedience to God’s instruction concerning your relationship to man and to God. Jesus is the One who gave Himself as a sacrifice and He deserves our worship. Remain pure and be equipped to do God’s will.
