June 13 — “Return to Me”: The Day of the Lord in Joel — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Joel | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from the book of Joel, we hear a powerful call to wake up, repent, and return to the Lord in the face of devastating judgment. Joel uses the image of a locust plague and “the day of the Lord” to warn God’s people, yet he also holds out stunning promises of restoration, God’s presence, and the outpouring of His Spirit. This short but weighty book reminds us that the Lord is both holy and gracious—slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love, and eager to welcome all who turn back to Him.

June 12 — Preserved Line, Renewed Covenant — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | 2 Kings 11–12; 2 Chronicles 22–24 | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from 2 Kings 11:1–12:3 and 2 Chronicles 22:10–24:2, we see God protect David’s royal line through Joash, even when Athaliah tries to wipe it out completely. Hidden in the temple and then crowned at the right time, Joash’s early reign—guided by Jehoiada the priest—brings renewal of covenant faithfulness and attention to the house of the Lord. These chapters remind us that even when evil seems to prevail, God quietly preserves His promises and raises up leaders to call His people back to Him.

June 11 — The House of Israel’s King Falls — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | 2 Kings 8–10; 2 Chronicles 21–22 | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from 2 Kings 8:23–10:17 and 2 Chronicles 21:19–22:9, we watch God’s judgment fall on the house of Ahab and those joined to it. Jehu is anointed to wipe out Ahab’s line and Jezebel’s influence, while in Judah, the reigns of Jehoram and Ahaziah show how deeply compromise and alliance with wickedness can wound God’s people. These chapters are a sobering reminder that the Lord is patient but not indifferent—He keeps His promises both to save and to judge.

In today’s reading from 2 Kings 5:1–7:20 and 2 Chronicles 21:18, we see God’s power and mercy on display through Elisha—from Naaman the leper humbled and healed, to miraculous provision in a devastating famine, to judgment on those who scoff at God’s word. Alongside this, the brief note about Jehoram’s painful end in 2 Chronicles underscores that the Lord both graciously saves and faithfully judges, calling us to respond to His word with humble trust.

June 9 — Judgment on Edom: Brother Against Brother — Chronological Audio Bible Reading | Obadiah | Resolved to Read

In today’s reading from the book of Obadiah, we hear a sharp word of judgment against Edom, Israel’s brother nation descended from Esau. Obadiah condemns Edom not only for its violence, but for standing by—and even rejoicing—while disaster fell on Judah. Placed here in our chronological reading, this prophecy reminds us how serious it is when family betrays family, and how God sees and judges pride, cruelty, and indifference toward His people.
