Day 14

Weekly Truth

from the This Is the New Testament reading plan


Acts 13:27-31

BY She Reads Truth

Scripture is God-breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry the good news of Jesus with us wherever we go. 

As we survey the New Testament, we’re memorizing Acts 13:27–31. This week, we’ll work on adding verse 28. Each day, revisit this verse and say it aloud at least two times. See if you can recite both verses 27 and 28 from memory by the end of the week. 

27 Since the residents of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize him or the sayings of the prophets that are read every Sabbath, they have fulfilled their words by condemning him. 28 Though they found no grounds for the death sentence, they asked Pilate to have him killed. 29 When they had carried out all that had been written about him, they took him down from the tree and put him in a tomb. 30 But God raised him from the dead, 31 and he appeared for many days to those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses to the people.
—Acts 13:27–31

    Asking for prayer this morning as I’m going through a miscarriage. At 11 weeks I was totally shocked and devastated to find out my baby had no heartbeat. Trusting that the Lord is still good, but this is still so hard. Thank you for praying.

    Thanks be to the Lord who gives us grace upon grace and has new mercies for us each day. God speaks to us each day if we will just open His word and read. Happy Sunday!

    KATE and JULIE – welcome to SRT! It’s a sweet place to bring your thoughts, questions and prayer requests.
    JIMIN LEE – saying a prayer for you and Daniel. God can handle your big, bold prayers and even your snowflake prayers matter. All the snowflake prayers pile up over time and can shut things down. (Both concepts borrowed from Will and Suzie Davis off of her podcast Dear Daughters.) God sees you and He loves you.

    Praying to the God of all grace for
    MISSI BURGESS (your daughter), MARI V (Alyssa), DOROTHY (Carol and Jake), KARRIE, MUNCHKIN – may the God of peace calm your anxious thoughts and bring joy to your heaviness of heart.

    JIMIN LEE – praying for you and Daniel. May God show Himself strong on behalf of your children and bring a restoration to the family that brings glory to His name. Nothing is impossible for our God

    Praise the Lord today, ladies, for He IS good!

    Jimin Lee, praying with you. May God give you His peace and wisdom and strength. Dorothy, praying for Carol, for hope and ears to hear and eyes to see His path for help. And for Jake, that God would do whatever it takes to restore Him mentally, physically, and spiritually. Kelly, Lindy is doing great. So thankful, they took out her appendix and it had not burst, she was released from the hospital yesterday morning. Praise God! Thank you all for your prayers. Sunday’s here May it bring His joy and give our LORD God much glory, honor and praise!
