Reading through the Bible



I have tried and tried to use other ministries reading through the Bible and I end up quitting. I am NOT sure why. I have now started my own, Reading Through the Bible. It is simple, essentially what I am doing is reading a chapter in the Old Testament, New Testament and Psalm then Proverbs a day....

Try it and see if it works for you......no pressure....no I missed a day and I am behind....because you are never behind because is not about reading it in a year...it is about reading it period.

Psalm 112 NASB

This chapter in Psalm keeps coming up...through vastly different people for about a month:




Psalm 112
Praise the LORD!
How blessed is the man who fears the LORD,
Who greatly delights in His commandments.
His descendants will be mighty on earth;
The generation of the upright will be blessed.
Wealth and riches are in his house,
And his righteousness endures forever.
Light arises in the darkness for the upright;
He is gracious and compassionate and righteous.
It is well with the man who is gracious and lends;
He will maintain his cause in judgment.
For he will never be shaken;
The righteous will be remembered forever.
He will not fear evil tidings;
His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.
His heart is upheld, he will not fear,
Until he looks with satisfaction on his adversaries.
He has given freely to the poor;
His righteousness endures forever;
His horn will be exalted in honor.
The wicked will see it and be vexed;
He will gnash his teeth and melt away;
The desire of the wicked will perish
