In 2021, we’re sharing a monthly chronological Bible reading plan that will help us grow and understand how the Bible fits together. We wanted to go ahead and provide the October reading plan so you can print it out and have it ready for the first day of the month!
The story of Scripture continues to unfold as we read about God’s judgement, human lament, and God’s compassion. Remember that lament is a form of poetry often consisting of prayers and hard conversations with God. Lament is intended to lead the mourner back to God, giving clarity to the situation and pointing to hope in God’s faithful love.
As we continue our journey, notice important key themes as you read.. God is the true God, in contrast to the idols of the nations. As the Creator of all people and nations, he is sovereign over the nations, having the ability and righteous perspective to bring them to judgement for their wickedness.
This month, read for the details. Learn more about God. Notice His compassion and plans for restoration. Look for insights into human sinfulness and examine your own life and attitudes toward God.
